Something tells me the boss knows better than to object to that exception...
Is it just me or does everyone feel their inner Cookie Monster rising up inside them at the mention of Girl Scout Cookies?

Greetings Curious Scroller,
If you've never landed in this part of cyber space before, you have taken a hard, fast plunge into the fiery depths of work hell. RHU is dedicated to giving the service worker a voice. If you are an angry customer, a corporate suite, a homophobic race-hater, and you don't like skull masks or swear words, this blog isn't for you. Click away now, before your ears bleed and your eyes explode.
I'm Freddy, Crypt Keeper of Retail Hell Underground RHU -- a place for service slaves to have a voice, tell their story, support each other, or just have a chuckle about the insanity of working in the 10th Circle of Hell! I'm also the author of "Retail Hell," the funny memoir about life as a handbag sales associate at an upscale department store! The sequel, "Return To The Big Fancy," has just been released in hardcover and e-reader and is available wherever books are sold!

That's one exception I think everyone can agree on!

As a Girl Scout Leader, that just warms my heart. I get cookies in February. Let me know who wants some. I will send them. :)
I am having a huge camporee this next weekend--160 girls of all ages--and I will be printing this out for the girls. We have often had people get nasty with them, even with the little girls (this last year has been rough due to an internet hate campaign if you want to find out google "speak now girl scouts") So anything positive like this will make them smile.

This of course has a double meaning in Britain, where we have two types of lawyers (I know, it's a terrifying thought): solicitors, who deal with the person requesting legal services, and barristers, who do the actual work. Imagine that Lionel Hutz has to secure the services of, and instruct, that lawyer with the New York accent and you'll see how it works. Note also that barrister sounds like barista... wouldn't it be nice to see smug lawyers serving coffee and getting shouted at by overstressed businessmen?

I don't mind this sign. It'd actually be much worse of they didn't make the exception.
Not that I'm saying they should have to buy Girl Scout cookies if they don't want to, but putting up a sign about it so that they don't even have to talk to any scout who come by selling is kind of douchey.

That's an exception I would make, for sure. i love Girl Scout cookies.

I hate girlscout cookies but I still buy them cause I want to support the scouts and I know I can always give them away to family.

we don't get GS cookies until mid February/early March. I end up buying a case of mixed cookies-about one or two boxes of each kind. I share two boxes with the family. I take the rest into work with me, if I don't I'll end up porking every last cookie and crumb myself. Last year the girl scout troop I bought my cookies from were also collecting cookies for operation cookie drop. I bought an extra case for the troops.
They came to my office to sell cookies-yes, medical office I understand the irony-and they really pushed the cookies for the troop thing. I forget how many cookies the leader said they sold but I remember the two Fridays and Saturdays they were there they sold out completely.
