Since I've been getting inundated with email requests for photos, I decided to cave in and post a few.

Check 'em out in the forums under my thread!

(I've always been a self-proclaimed twinkie: yellow on the outside, white on the inside - and it's not because of the gobs of semen that has been unloaded into my snatch. So tell me, which kind of Asian are you?)

 Young Asians in America come in many forms. Below are the major categories. Most Asians fit into multiple groups. For example, Rice-boys can also be Fobs and many Tabs are Fobulous. The only groups that are never part of another group are the Twinkies and the Asian-Americans. Claim your Fobbiness! When you see your Asian friend, greet them with "Wassup Fob!" And if your Asian friend says something ridiculous, say "Fob please!" Of course, when a non-Asian calls you a Fob, that is grounds for a fight. Ahahaha... The categories below are to be taken lightheartedly. Read, recognize and laugh.

I hate to say that I probably have more foreign policy than Sarah Palin.

A couple of months ago, I got a job working at an upscale convenience store called Famima!! (and yes, the double exclamation points are included in the title - I don't mind publishing the name of the company, as I am more than likely going to be quitting soon anyway). I took a step down from office management and procurement into retail so I could have some flexibility with my school schedule while making some money. I make just above minimum wage, which is fine, I don't have any major expenditures anymore.

This is my first time back in the retail industry in about three years, if you want to include the one month I worked at Cardiff Seaside Market in San Diego. Before that, it had been about a year or so before I worked in an industry that required face-to-face customer service. During the interim, I've had jobs where severe customer service was required over the phone, but that was no big deal. I could easily fake a visible facetious smile and still hang up with the customer as satisfied as ever.

I've been at my current job for two months for as long as it has been open (my first day was on the grand opening of the store), but within three weeks of working, I've had to deal with quite a few characters. Some of whom have learned, the hard way, that I am not a people person and not your typical customer service girl.

In three years, I have almost forgotten how awful retail customer service can be... and I'd like to share with you my stories of horrible customers, funny days at work, and other random happenings since I don't want to talk to anyone else about it.

1) A Jewish woman (I can pick them out of a crowd - don't ask) came in one day bearing one of our promotional, grand opening coupons for a free 12 ounce iced coffee.

Woman: Hi.
Me: Hi.
Woman: I have a coupon for a free 12 ounce coffee. I was wondering if I turned in the coupon and paid the difference, could I get a salad instead?

Uh, what?

Me: Uh. No.
Woman: Really? Are you sure?
Me: I'm positive. Really.
Woman: Oh, OK. Well, what if I just got a soda or something?

Can you not fucking read that the coupon is for COFFEE ONLY? You should be grateful that we're even giving it away for free, you wench!

Me: No, sorry.
Woman: Oh, OK. Well, what are these coupons for?

The coupons state, in bold print, that they are for a free 12 ounce coffee, iced or hot, and an all-beef hot dog for the amazing price of one dollar.

Are you fucking serious?

Me: Um. It's for a free 12 ounce iced or hot coffee and a one dollar hot dog.
Woman: Well, what if I just give you the coupon for the hot dog and get a salad instead?

I about blew a gasket. What the fuck was her obsession with having a cheap salad?

Me: No, sorry.
Woman: Oh, alright. I'll take a hot dog then.

I ring her up and tell her it's a dollar and I walk over to the hot dog grill, put some gloves on, and grab a bun. Right as I clip the frank between the tongs, she stops me.

Woman: You know what? Forget it, I changed my mind, I don't want the hot dog. Thank you anyway.

BITCH.

2) A gorgeous blonde girl walks in with her hipster boyfriend, who is a regular customer of mine. I'm pulling expired stock off of the shelves and right down the aisle from me is the "Ramune" (Japanese lemonade soda) section. Ramune comes in a strawberry and a melon flavor, as well as regular which is just the lemon-lime flavor. About fifteen minutes after mulling over which flavor they want, the girl walks up to me with a regular flavor Ramune.

Girl: Hi!
Me: Hi.
Girl: Excuse me, I was wondering... what's the regular flavor? What is this?
Me: It's lemonade... like, lemon-lime.
Girl: Oh, is that like lychee?

Did you hear what I just said?

Me: Uh. It's lemon-lime.
Girl: Huh.
Me: ...like Sprite.
Girl: Oh!

3) We sell Icee, subtitled as "Famima!! Freeze," at our store. We have three different flavors: Coca-Cola, Blue Raspberry, and the obligatory Cherry flavor. Our Icee machines have been kind of weird lately. Something happens to them so that it doesn't dispense properly, so we have to reboot the machine and shut it down for a few hours. When we do this, we put up a large "Out of Order" sign smack dab in the middle of the machine, which is right in front of the Blue Raspberry dispenser. It's quite clear when neither of the dispensers are working as the liquid just sits there and stops producing icy slush. Most of my customers have been good about realizing that when the product itself isn't spinning, then it isn't working.

One woman came in with her children while I was going back and forth between cleaning the backroom and ringing customers up. She came to the counter after I had finished ringing one customer up with her daughter in tow. Her daughter's clothes, face, and hands were covered in a mysterious shade of red.

Woman: Uh, hi. Are all of the Icee flavors out of order, or is it just the one in the middle?
Me: Um. All of them. When all of the dispenser displays stop spinning, it means they're not working. There's also an "Out of Order" sign on the machine.
Woman: Oh. Well, I didn't know if that was for the middle machine or for all of them.

Why didn't you just ask if you were unsure, dumbass?

Me [faking a smile]: Well, it's for all of them!
Woman [gruff attitude]: I see that now, and now my kid is filthy.

How is that my problem?

Me: There's a bathroom in the back, she can clean herself off.
Woman: Uh, you should put an "Out of Order" sign on all of them so everyone else can see it.
Me: Uh, just because you're stupid doesn't mean everyone else is.

I'm surprised I haven't been fired yet.

4) I've had five different people come in on the same day looking for soft-serve ice cream. But before asking me about it, they would actually browse each and every aisle looking for a soft-serve ice cream machine. When the fifth person, who was probably about 17 or 18, came in looking for it, he spent about a good 10 minutes in each aisle hoping a machine would magically appear. And like clockwork, he approached me at the counter.

Kid: Hey, I looked around the store and I was wondering if you guys have a soft-serve ice cream machine?
Me: Um, do you see one?

Yeah. I'm still employed.

A husband is at home watching a football game when his wife interrupts,

'honey, could you fix the light in the hallway?
It's been flickering for weeks now'.

He looks at her and says angrily,
'fix the lights now?
Does it look like I have GE written on my forehead?
I don't think so'.

Fine,

then the wife asks,
'well then, could you fix the fridge door? It won't close right '

to which he replied,
'fix the fridge door?
Does it look like I have Westinghouse written on my forehead?
I don't think so'.

'Fine', she says
'then you could at least fix the steps to the front door? They are about to break '

'I’m not a carpenter and I don't want to fix steps'.
He says, 'does it look like I have ACE Hardware written on my forehead?
I don't think so
I’ve had enough of you.
I'm going to the bar!!!! '

So he goes to the bar and drinks for a
couple of hours………………………….

He starts to feel guilty about how he treated his wife, and decides to go home.
As he walks into the house, he notices that the steps are already fixed.

As he enters the house, he sees the hall light is working.

As he goes to get a beer, he notices the fridge door is fixed.

'Honey', he asks, 'how'd all this get fixed?'
she said, 'well, when you left I sat outside and cried.

Just then a nice young man asked me what was wrong, and I told him.

He offered to do all the repairs, and all I had to do was either go to bed with him or bake a cake'.

He said, 'so what kind of cake did you bake?'

she replied,
'hellooooo do you see Betty Crocker written on my forehead?
I don't think so!'

I found a link to this internet TV show I did voice over work for when I first came back to LA. And by voice over work, I mean made a bunch of sex noises into the video. You can hear me in the giant orgy scene -- I'm the one with the somewhat whiny high-pitch... and you can hear me again in the climax scene (when the girl's foot shoots up on the table and starts convulsing -- that's me!).

"Jan,

Unfortunately, whatever happens in Vegas, doesn't stay in Vegas. I'm pregnant.

Annik"

Wouldn't that be a fucked up email to have to send someone thousands of miles away in Europe? Good thing I don't have to... yet.

I haven't seen my period in two months; not since the Peter Hook shows.
Where could my period be? Most likely in Denmark!

Boyfriend:"That shit ain't mine."
Me: "It's not mine either.  It belongs to a guy in Denmark!"

I decided that if it is true, then I would send him a singing telegram in Copenhagen.
We proceeded to come up with the many ways this message could be delivered in a poetic, "roses are red" form:

Roses are red, violets are blue, a month ago I was screwed, and so are you!

Roses are red, violets are blue, I've gotten bigger because I'm eating for two!

Roses are red, violets are blue, I'm having a baby and you are too!

Roses are red, violets are blue, Vegas sucks and so do you!

Roses are red, violets are blue, I'm pregnant.

I guess I could also send him a huge white box with a deep red sash ribbon tied in a bow with a box of See's Candies inside of it. And when he opens the See's Candies box, it will be empty with the exception of a child support court order. That would be both mean and hilarious, in exact Annik fashion. Maybe in lieu of the box of candy, I could just send him a half-Cambodian, half-Danish baby.

I actually doubt that I'm pregnant. These last few months have been pretty irregular for me, especially with losing a good deal of weight, changing my diet, and being stressed out. In addition, I'd be lactating at this point and I'm not... and I had X-rays done recently, which cannot be done if you're pregnant (which I was tested for as well).

I had a fun time thinking about the cruelly entertaining "I'm pregnant" scenarios though. I'll save these for the next time a guy forgets to pull out in time.

Anyway, remind me to never fuck another Euro-fag in Vegas again.

From a Hungarian guy I went on a date with a month and a half ago. This email was sent to me on August 3rd, which I had totally forgotten about till now:

Telling your parents you're gay.

Last night very well may have been the first time I've ever fisted a guy in the ass.

Details soon. Maybe.

I suppose even with someone who is as sexually experienced as me, there is still a first time for everything.

One night, I had the hot idea of inviting this gorgeous Naval Officer up that I had met in San Diego for a night with me, and he agreed to come up.

When we start fooling around, he was the first one to dive into foreplay. I'm on my hands and knees while he's going down on me and at some point or another, decides to stick his fingers inside. I end up on my backside and about twenty minutes into it, he's still fingering me but at some point he had slipped in an extra finger. I LOVE being fingered as that is the easiest way to get me to climax and he had just the right hands for it. So about another ten minutes go by and I have my 5th orgasm (not joking) and he has managed to slip an extra one in there.

As time went on, my screams got louder and eventually went from being screams of joy to screams of pain without my realizing it. I finally thought, "This really isn't normal for me to be screaming like this." Even HE was trying to get me to shut up. I look down and I don't see any free fingers, so of course I have to ask.

"Dude, what are you doing?"
"What? Ah've got muh entar fist in thar!" (he's from the South)
"WHAT? NO NO NO NO NO! STOP!"

He withdraws, continues going down on me, then REINSERTS four fingers back into my birth canal.

"HEY!"
"Oh, that's so hot, baby. You know you want this."
"NO NO NO NO, I DON'T WANT THIS!"

And in between the "no no noes," I manage to climax again as he had reinserted his thumb in between my fleshy walls and his inner palm. He went deeper.

"OH MY GOD, STOP."

I was freaked out. I had never been fisted before.

"You sure you want me to stop? You sound jes' like yer enjoyin' it!"
"STOP, JUST STOP. OH MY GOD."
"Well, awright."

We finish our foreplay and get to the dickin' (which was actually quite delightful as I came about another three times). After we're finished, I had to ask him.

"So, how far in did you get?"
"Oh, about this far."

He makes an elongated left fist and demonstrates how far in by cupping his right hand just a half inch above his left wrist.

I was in pain for many days after that.
