kdkhookah Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Sorry this topic makes me think of a Mitch Hedberg joke:"I walked by a dry cleaner at 3 AM, and the sign said 'Sorry, we're closed.' You don't have to be sorry. It's 3 AM and you're a dry cleaner. It would be ridiculous for me to expect you to be open. I'm not gonna walk in at 10 AM and say 'Hey man, I walked by at 3 and you guys were closed. Somebody owes me an apology.'" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sleeperhit Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Sometimes when I work nights I find fast food places that have their OPEN DRIVE sign on...but they're closed.....Very annoying.One place I have been working at for a week now has a Jack in The Box sign saying OPEN at 2am but it's been closed every night.I'm about ready to blow the place up from just looking at that sign.
