There are several disturbing parts to this image. First and most obvious are the spelling mistakes. “Temporarily” is not necessarily an easy word to spell, but hey if you’re unsure, why not ask someone? The second mistake is a lot less forgivable. If you just say that word the way it’s spelled you will feel a little funny on the inside.

I realize that we don’t always have the best and brightest people serving us at the big box stores, but I remember the day when everyone at least knew how to spell. What does it say about the public school system when a high school graduate can’t spell common words?

The second thing that makes me scratch my head is that a customer actually took the time to correct the spelling and yet the sign still hangs there in bold defiance! That’s like leaving the house in your underwear and when your boss says something you just smile and leave him a thank you note instead of running back to the car to find something to wear.

The staff writes “Thank you” in response – and then still leaves the sign hanging…

Yes, thank you Mr. Customer for showing the world how ignorant we are. We will leave this symbol of our stupidity up as a token of our appreciation.

Surely a sharpie + notebook paper sign could not be that costly to reproduce correctly?

Anyway, I hope that this was an outlier and that the future of our country will not be “inconvienced” by our educational neglect.

Have a nice day.

But as fate would have it, my wife and I both had a delayed opening before we had to go and grind our respective mills and I decided that I would go outside and work on getting the car broken out of the seven foot glacier that the street plow had left us.

But I got distracted…

I kept staring at the snow and for some reason I wanted to build a snowman. So I did.

It was strange no doubt for my neighbors and those walking down the street to see a grown man rolling a 100 lb. ball of snow all over the lawn. I suppose I might as well have been barking at the moon in their eyes. But who cares, life had given me slushy snow and I was going to make a snowman!
