The best thing:
This is part of the scientifically "least desirable song." A song designed to have elements that, according to surveys, has no popular elements. I don't know, I sort of like it
Today was the day I was called in to work to attempt to shift around the holiday stuff in our weird storage room. I came to a chilling realization-but first, a bit of background:
My store used to be a Super Fresh back in the 90's. It has since closed down to become an arts and crafts store. However, even if a store is re-purposed, it still contains the elements of its predecessors (see any Wawa or Pizza Hut, their architecture is wholly unique). As such, since I began to work there, I often wondered where some of those parts were, namely the giant walk in fridge. I thought that it was tucked away in this boarded up corner we continually barricaded with unsold glass jars and American flags and left it at that.
Anyway, I was talking to my co-worker about this today, and ironically, as I walked out of the storage closet literally jam packed with unsold holiday merchandise, I noticed a big metal doorframe around this rooms entrance. Then it hit me: I had been working in what was the refrigerator all day. That doorway, the one that had bolts removed from the hinges, bolts big enough to hold a very heavy door in place, had to be to a cold storage room. Then I imagined it. Being hip deep in sandals and 5 dollar pairs of sunglasses in a subzero cooler, with the door shut. This thought is probably on my top 20 list of ways I don't want to die, just below mauled by a bear, and just above crushed by one of those metal crushing deals they have at the dump.
