Shrubbery and flowers MIA in the 'hood

Saturday morning, Bill saw that our neighbor had her flowers stolen. Damn. What the hell? She called the police and even showed where the dirt was leading up the street, but the cops "don't investigate." WTF? More people need to set up video cameras like ours. The ones we have record pretty good, although Rachel did sneak in this morning around 5 am and didn't show up on the camera. Did get pictures of her parking the car, though. I think it needs just a bit more tweaking. That's Tweaking nor Twerking...
Yesterday morning on our way to grocery shopping, we did drive around a couple of streets to see if we could locate the purloined blooms, but had no luck.

Savannah Police- the jokes almost write themselves.

One of our tenants next door is in the Army. He had a friend visit last week- also in the Army and they were both in their uniforms. A black man in an old Toyota pickup truck stopped and asked them for money. When the soldiers said NO, the man in the truck picked up rocks (that he had in his truck) and threw them at the soldiers. Seriously.
The guys called the police............an hour later, police still hadn't shown up........they should have said the dude showed them a gun..
Yesterday, neighbor called the police. His shrubs that he had just planted had been pulled up and taken away. Several people in the neighborhood have had this happen. Someone over by Brady Street is the culprit. One neighbor actually went to the house with his wheel barrel and took his plants back! Anyways, this neighbor waited for Savannah's finest to finally show. When the officer got there, the neighbor showed the cop the trail of dirt going to Brady Street. Cop said he couldn't do anything but take a report. REALLY...

been busy

Rachel and friends on St. Pat's Day
Been busy working for the biggest jerk in the world. I have been so sick the last month. 2 weeks ago, I was running a fever and having cold chills. I also had a migraine. After working for 4 hours like that, I left and went to the VA clinic. They gave me a note to stay out of work for the rest of that day (a Wednesday) and all the next. I immediately called the boss.
When I went into work on Friday, I promptly gave him the note. An hour later, he called me into the office and wrote me up. Said it was MY JOB to stay well. RU SERIOUS?
I so HATE the job and the boss.
I have been there almost 10 months and have never stopped looking for another job. I'll kick the next SOB that tells me "the economy is improving." Bite me.
