a long wait for no pretzel!
Mr. Kamikaze waits patiently for the concession stand operators to pull their heads out of their butts. Unfortunately, I think we're all still waiting.
There is more to this story. The photo only captures a moment, and frankly the true incompetence had not yet begun. There is something malicious in doing a job poorly; you don't care to, or you can't, do it correctly. Either way you have no business being there. It doesn't matter how important the job is or isn't.
And I really wanted a pretzel.
So when we got to the front of the line, asked for a pretzel and the round faced young woman shrugged and said "we're out" I was disappointed. And when she didn't say "Sorry, we're out" I was disappointed in another way. When she didn't say "Sorry, we're out, how about some peanuts?" I was already wondering why she hadn't scribbled a note on a napkin and put in the window. Suddenly, I was wondering how many of the people behind us in the line also wanted a pretzel and how long they would wait for their blank stared refusal.
I guess, after a long week at work, it can be hard to leave the office at the office. Well, it was hard for me, I doubt that the girl at the counter has that problem. I just hope that she gets a job she cares about real soon. Life is too short not to care.
