ATL and ANTS

 

 

I have had a HELLACIOUS week in Atlanta. Actually, an hour outside ATL, which is basically the boonies.

Day 1: Pick up car from ATL airport. Day 2–car is INFESTED with little brown ants. The customer LITERALLY jumps out of my car saying that he cannot ride with me. Of course not. Take ant infested car to food grade facility, realizing that I can potentially shut them down. Ants are literally falling out of my coworker’s hair. My skin is itching. Hertz delivers new rental car. Brand new Impala with a sunroof and leather seats. Day 3–Find ants in THIS car. OMG. If I shut this plant down due to ant infestation, that might be a SLIGHT problem. I may need to stop at the Walmart for raid.

My 65 year old customer LITERALLY eats a pound of bacon a day. He ordered a loaded baked potato with EXTRA EXTRA BACON and butter. Yesterday, he ordered a caesar salad with EXTRA EXTRA BACON. Everything is literally covered with bacon. He eats no vegetables, only meat. Oh, and the hot fudge brownie sundae. I would not like to be his colon. At 65, I am wondering if HE needs a suit in preparation for a funeral.

The customer will choose a chain restaurant EVERY TIME. Last night was Chili’s. I think tonight we are going to Steak and Shake. Thank God they have free apples in the lobby :)

 

However, I am grateful that today did not involve walking the docks, loading trucks, checking trailers, walking the yard, etc… in 98 degree heat.

 

and I LOVE LOVE LOVE how polite people are down here. Sir. Ma’am. They step aside to let you walk by. Hold doors open for you.
