so for the past few days...

I have been selling Eclipse (ZOMG) tshirts at work rather than popcorn and other various food choices. Now, most people don't want to buy shirt at all and most people say no. Some people don't even say no, they just act like they can't hear you. (Can you tell this is going to be a boring post? Oh wait, aren't they all?) Anyways, I learned a few things.

1. Old women really like the male actors in Eclipse. I mean like, REALLY like them.
2. Some dads will thank you for making their daughter's entire day complete by selling them a shirt.
3. Others.. will yell at you for trying to sell their daughters bullcrap (bleeping out the much worse word).
4. Muslim males can't wear shirts with faces on them. But Muslim women can.
5. The majority of people who want Eclipse tshirts need sizes like XL, XXL, and XXXL. I guess we didn't get sent enough of those to sell.
6. You get really bored on slow days, but all of your coworkers hate you for the ability to just sit down at a table.
7. So bored even, that you may write a poem about the Eclipse tshirts you're selling. At least, that's what I did:

It's just nineteen dollars for an Eclipse tshirt.
How much of your paycheck could it really hurt?
Wear Bella, Edward, and Jacob all the time.
Buy one today and you'll look so fine!

UPDATE: Old men sometimes will ask me if they can buy an eclipse tote bag, hide me in it, and take me to Pennsylvania with them. Okayyyy...?
