It’s so hard to find quarters!

So I was just at wawa... usually they have no problem giving me a roll of quarters in exchange for the same in bill currency.  Now they are being weird about giving up quarters.  Pretty much everywhere is getting weird about giving up quarters!  I use to do the coffee shop then they got weird.  Then I did walmart... weird.  Grocery store... also weird now.  Bank?  Weird.  I don't get it.  It's soooooo weird.  I mean... where do people get quarters to do laundry?  The last time I went to the bank they gave me a hard time about getting rolls of quarters.  Like something about they had to go forge them in a mint or something.  Maybe I should try an arcade next.  They have lots of quarters!

Or, maybe people just like to give other people a hard time for things before they finally do it?  I'm starting to wonder if that is it.  I think I'm going to try going to the bank and asking for like 100 dollars in rolls of quaters.  That way I won't have to worry about it for a LONG time.  Most of the time people just aren't very easy to get things from.

For example... I have to take my car in for an oil change and emission inspection.  I KNOW the people at the dealer are going to hmmmm and haaaaa about it when I call.  They always make it like it's this big long process and they might be able to "barely" fit me in.  But then when I call after they finally have the car... they are done in like 10 minutes....

I thought you had this big long super fantastic wait time because you were so busy????  Why is my car the only one that is there and I'm like the only customer even there when I go to pick it up and pay for it?  You sir are full of do do.

They should have 24 hour walmart type car service centers with cafe's attached where you can sit and work on your laptop while you wait for your car to be serviced.  That would be fantastic.

Actually everything should just be 24 hour!  I love 24 hour things.  I also love dealing with computers over people.  People fuss and whine and give you a hard time.  Computers just work.

It's annoying.  Even shopping at the groccery store is annoying.  That's why I love self check out (notice it's a computer... not a person).  The people at cash registers always make it seem like it's this big long process and ordeal to look up what number the bananas are.. everyone knows that the number for bananas are 4011... even I know that!

I think everyone should stop this nonsense.  I especially like to do this at work.  I like to just get things done.  I don't like to say to people "well... we're gonna have to... blah blah blah..."  No.  just do the work and move on to the next thing.

I think people in general waste entirely to much time making up excuses and saying why things can't be done...

When anything and everything can be done!  It's soooo easy!  Nike it up and just DO it!

So the next time someone gives you the run around or tries to make it seem like there is so much involved in doing something... tell them to cut the cow dung and do it.  That's what I say!

Let's stop being a lazy society and start helping each other.  If there is a reason why you can't give out quarters then tell me that reason with a logical explanation... then explain to me the best place that I should get quarters.  I have laundry to do... I don't want to be walking around with stinky clothing on because I can't seem to find anyone to give up quarters!

I guess you just have to be consistent and persistent with people to get things done anymore these days.  I wish the world were more hardworking and more into just getting things done instead of making up excuses for things.

Well I haven't ranted in a while... so I decided to write a rant blog.  Anywho that's my rant story about quarters for doing laundry.  One of my goals is to have two washers and two dryers in my house so I never have to worry about doing laundry. Or using quarters ever again.  Why two?  Just in case one breaks down.  Or in case I have a whole bunch of house guests over that happen to need to do a lot of laundry.  They can use the second one.
