Adult Children by Stephen Beals for July 16, 2024

All worked up now

need help collecting your spirit, Todd?

Penny, you rained on his parade.

After the effort he made, you could try to find something for him to do.

Now he won’t be able to afford another umbrella. :(

..more aptly, “fill up your arms, and then walk all the back to front of the store to grab a basket”. I admire the stores that have some baskets at the back of the store..

After retiring from my hospital I got a part-time job as a traveling pharmacist for a big-box store chain. They sent me all over the eastern part of the state, depending on where they needed someone for the day. Not only did I have to check my schedule every day to see when I was supposed to work, I also needed to know where I was scheduled to be. Someone at one of the stores told me that it had happened before that a traveler went to the wrong store. You could be 100 miles from where you were supposed to be.

A smile makes a good umbrella, but a scream cleanses the soul.

I love the signage on the baskets! I have done that way too many times!

I hope it is just a rumor that comments will be discontinued. However, if this is true, please discontinue my subscription and refund the unused portion to my account. There are comics in every newspaper in the country, and I subscribe to two of them on line. There is no value to your site other than being able to interact with other subscribers. This is ONLY if comments will not be allowed on all scripts. If this is just a rumor, please continue to allow me to continue to talk to my friends ( and enemies) . This is the only site I know of that allows full discussions on varying topics and varying opinions. It’s valuable as long as it has comments, it’s worthless without them.

Surely he can fill in for another employee who is scheduled to work but didn’t show up.
