CDs and Scott 10/10/2003
It's gotten really busy at Wal-Mart since I got back from my days off. To make it worse, I've been by myself. Anyway, Brent came in to get the CD I burned for him with the songs from his zip disks. He was saying he's suprised he even trusted me with them since last time he asked someone to do it when he didn't know them too well, he got his CD, but never saw his zip disks back. He obviously doesn't have a CD burner, so his zip disks are all the mobile storage he has. I told him not to worry. I have no use for zip disks. I have a CD burner. =) So I gave him the CD and told him that it's not playable in a CD player; only on a computer. He said that he wanted it playable in a CD player, which is why he gave me so many CDs. MP3s are compressed 3 times and are only playable on something that is able to decompress them. When they are uncompressed, or in CDA format as audio tracks, they are a lot larger. I had given him the option of keeping them in MP3 format so they'd take up half a CD, but would only be playable on a computer in a program that can decompress them (Winamp, Windows Media Player, etc.), or I could write them as audio CDs where he could pop them into any CD player, but it would take around 5 CDs. At the time, he said he doesn't care if it can be played in a CD player, he just wants them on a CD. I guess he changed his mind and forgot to tell me, lol. So I gave him the CD I made and took the zip disks back home to write the other CDs the way he wanted. He asked how many days it would take. Lol, I can burn a full CD in 3-4 minutes. I told him I'd get it back to him the next day. He was surprised, of course.

I was up by the front doors and Tracy made known that she spotted me. She said she's back. I asked what she was back from. She said it was her vacation. I hadn't noticed. She had been calling for maintenance to come to her department for a wet spill for a while, and I asked if anyone ever showed up. She said no one had. I said she should get that one guy to go back to maintenance to clean it up for her. She asked whom I was talking about. I said that one guy she's all friends with now. She offered James's name. I said that's who it was. She said, "Person who I'm all friends with? You mean my boyfriend," and she poked me in the stomach. Well, she never told me he was her boyfriend. She had been leaving out names lately. I don't really care, however.

I saw Phil going out to his car and I caught up to him to ask if Scott had made any contact yet, like he was supposed to 5 days ago. He said he hadn't yet. We were talking about it when a truck pulled into the parking spot right next to us and it was Scott! He was with his wife and daughter. He said he and his dad were really not getting along, so he moved out. He gave both of us his phone number and said to call him. Then he just drove off. What a coincidence that was! That was pretty cool. Now I have some hope again.
