RENT AN IDIOT

INT. TARGET STORE BURBANK CALIFORNIA - DAY
(RENT A COP, STEPHANIE)

STEPHANIE ATTEMPTS TO LEAVE STORE HAVING NOT PURCHASED ANYTHING

RENT A COP
Excuse me, can I see your receipt?
STEPHANIE
I don’t have a receipt, I didn’t buy anything.
RENT A COP
I need to see your receipt. (THEN) Ma’am.
STEPHANIE
I don’t have one.
RENT A COP
You can’t leave until you produce a receipt.
STEPHANIE
What?
RENT A COP
I need to see your receipt ma’am. What is it that you are not understanding?
STEPHANIE LOOKS AROUND TO SEE IF ASHTON KUTCHER HAS REVAMPED PUNK’D, BUT SEES NO ONE.
STEPHANIE
(SHAKES HEAD) Are you being serious?
RENT A COP
Of course. (THEN) Ma’am
STEPHANIE
Do you see any bags?
RENT A COP
No.
STEPHANIE
Okay then, you can clearly see that I haven’t bought anything.
RENT A COP
I need to see a receipt before you can leave the store.
STEPHANIE
So tell this to me like I am a two year old. In order to leave Target, I have to buy something?
RENT A COP
(LAUGHING) No, that would be ridiculous. (THEN) You just have to show me a receipt.
STEPHANIE
Okay. (THEN) Would you like to search my purse?
RENT A COP
I can’t do that ma’am. Just show me your receipt and you can leave.
STEPHANIE
I don’t have a receipt.
RENT A COP
Well then you can’t leave. I can’t let anyone leave until I see their receipt.
STEPHANIE
So I have to go buy something?
RENT A COP
If that’s the only way for you to get a receipt, then yes.

    No?

    My God, that man deserves to get tasered for being so stupid! Or maybe he was just taking pleasure in being obnoxious? Or maybe Target is suddenly losing tons of money?

    It's a little funny, though. Heh.

    I know right?
    I figure probably he was knew and they told him to stop every one and he just wasn't on the ball enough to think about what he would do if someone didn't have their receipt. :0)

And It Continues-This One Paid $.50 (cents) Per Drawing!

And it continues.. what is wrong with people?  "54 simple illustrations needed. Small files for web use only, either 300 x 300px square or 460 x 300px rectangle.Will provide font, sample finished product and detailed instruction sheet. Paying $0.50 per .JPG " yeah that's 50 cents!! I saw another one yesterday from New York area that is paying $4 per hour, isn't that illegal in this country, guess not.. I don't understand, a couple days ago I was approached to do someone's book. I gave him a fair price, meaning I quotes less than a day's wage per page and he replied back with insults saying he knows for a fact that illustrators get $5 per page, yes 5 bucks.. he is insane. What is worse is that he wanted fully rendered like hand painted work that would take more than a day.  This happens all the time. I don't understand why the value of an artist isn't valued anymore.  Look we can draw and you can't so pay us a fair wage!! I don'...

It's Been Awhile---Catching Up With Me

 So much to say and how to say it... so I'll just start with. Wow, what a year it's been.  I mean, could anyone have predicted all the shite that has hit us in 2020?  NO way!  I'm grateful for so much though, and one of them is the freedom to be able to have blogs (yes I have many) and the freedom to say whatever I want ---this is important.  I'm grateful that I live where I do and even though I'm not rich, I am healthy and live a good life. I do what I can to help others, I also have a loving husband and a Westie who I adore.  As many of you know that aside from blogging sporadically on here I'm a writer and an artist AND I work one on one with both artists and writers to help them in their careers. I've been doing this since 2006 (artists) 2010 (writers). The past few years I've focused on coaching writers as I became the queen of writing conferences and people were always hitting me up for free advice. I even started a YouTube channel CHECK IT OUT Thi...
