I'll bet Mom remembers my boxboy at Ralphs story:

I was a boxboy at Vons, gathering up shopping carts in the large rear parking lot, and I lost control of a train of about 47 carts. The train of carts, kind of moving downhill now, snaked, went up and over a curb cut, across a little sidewalk, and BAM right through the store's plate glass window just to the left of the rear automatic doors, glass flying everywhere, and nailed a huge, fat lady. Sort of tossed her in the air like a rag doll and SPLAT on the floor. Everybody in the store turned and looked and said "Ooooohhhhh!"

 

check yur VM

 

SURE DO fact ask BB how I told him to MAKE you tell him the story ( its my fave RB story )

Reason for this dumb tread is I was explainin 2 BB why I dint tink I would be able to choose your purdy new Laguna Blue if I HAD 2 replace da VMOM due to the fact that I had been in a bad accident in a brand new Honda of a similar color blue and the Karma thing would bug me too much to be able to go Blue again

and when I said I had missed like 3 months of WORK due to that accident I quickly followed with YEAH I SAID WORK and then proceeded to tell him bout my lovely career with the Big S to which the mug came up and so I decided to show him da goods to prove my story > aka blah blah blah pita pita pita blah blah but I don't care cuz he asked

you're right about abercrombie..even with the discount, it was still pretty expensive.. of course when I was working there, it wasn't as big as it is now

i liked working at the toy store (and nope.. not the mega chain)... it was a local mom and pop shop that sold specialized toys like steiff bears, marklin trains, etc...and toys that you don't normally find at stores (like silly putty, and slinky, etc..)
