Peace & Love, Mother Bleeper!

SO..  I've been trying to focus on being only positive - in every aspect of my life.  Where I'd normally swear and tense up..... Embrace.   It's OH-KAY..  No need to get all flustered and angry.. just BREATHE.   Relax... everything is aaaa-okay.  One place I find this almost impossible to practice:  Behind the wheel of my vehicle.  Going to work this morning there was a woman driving a black car... leading the PARADE behind her.  I would say probably 99% of the people on the road at that hour are going to work.  And... most of them - like myself - are running behind.  The "speed limit" is 40.  What is she doing?  *sigh*   Like.. 33.  To ME.. this is ABSOLULTEY UNACCEPTABLE.  Haha....  I mean it!  "Speed Limit" doesn't mean that anything below forty is cool.  Especially when there is a parade behind you.  One would think that she would perhappppss take a peek in her rear view mirror.... no?  The rear view mirror was created for one reason and one reason only.  To LOOK AT IT to uh.... see what's going on behind you.  You DO NOT .... DO NOT.....  enter your vehicle and just DRIVE..  without ever looking left, right or behind you.

NEWS ALERT YOU EGOTISTICAL FUCKING FREAKS:  You are not the only human driving a vehicle on this man-made road.  WHY????  And .... HOW did humans get so flippin Self-Centered????

*sigh*    .....Relax k..... breeaaathe....

I will never, ever, ever get this.  This...  driving-the-car-while-never-ever-looking-behind-you.  Or even worse..  Looking.....Seeing... and STILL not getting your ass moving.

NEXT........

My mind was completely blown last night.  I went to dinner with a friend at a local joint that I already felt uneasy about.  The few times I've been there I've left displeased.  The service is not good.  It's all very clique-y and if you're not a regular, you get the bare minimum.  So.. our server was actually pretty good.  The food was great.  I get my bill.. I pay the man and I know I'm due back 2 bucks and some change.  So he comes back and hands me two dollar bills and says thanks, have a good night.  The confusion sets in.  .......I'm thinking... how do I only get 2 bucks even back?  Then I thought, oh, maybe I was due back like $1.97, so he just gave me 2 bucks back.  Uh... Nope!  Guess again!  Dude owed me $2.84 and... for whatever reason he came up with in his twisted head.. he thought he would just go ahead and keep my 84 cents.  This is:

A) Ridiculous
B) Stupid
C) Disrespectful
D) Theft!

Last time I checked, tipping is not an obligation.  Yes, of course I will tip you.. but.. under no circumstances do you just make the decision to KEEP my 84 cents.  I told him I was confused and I wanted to understand.  He said he doesn't really give coins back... that's just the way he does it.    HAHA... niiiiiice.  That's the WAY I do it!  See...  I don't mess around with those Coin Things.... I just give everyone back BILLS... and I just pocket all their coins...  and at the end of the night.. sheeit... I've got like 15 bucks extra!  

Even if I'm gonna end up giving him that $2.84 as a tip... you still don't assume anything and keep someone's money.  You give them the correct change back and you let THEM make that decision.

W.... what do YOU think about this???
