Sooooooooo slowwwwwwwwwww. god, i hate this place with every fing fibre of my being. the clerks, for the most part, do not know what the hell they're doing. there used to be a young lady who knew her stuff, but i think the other clerks killed her. god forbid somebody orders cigs other than newports, as it's a guaranteed 5 minute search "up--left--down, down--the red ones--no not silver, red--up, up...'ad infinitum. one would think people would go through nicotine withdrawal before finally getting their smokes. and the gamblers--i'm not one to begrudge people their addictions, but i don't think there's a 'gambling anonymous' within a half light year from this place, as it seems to be the black hole of PowerBall addicts. and not just the 'two quick picks please' variety, but the 'wait, let me open my briefcase with my folders of lucky numbers, enchanted dice, shrunken heads, and shriveled monkey hands' type. and the money they toss at it--i'm like 'dude, step away from megamillion and put that coin in real estate!' i guess i'm not surprised new jersey has a great school system, as if even a .000001% of the money spent on lotto at this one location goes education, they should be rolling in it.
most of the clerks are little old ladies who seem to know all the other little old ladies who make the daily sojourn from miles and miles away, probably from the old country, to have a catch up session, in polish, while the lines get looooooooooooonger and looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooonger. i now have a working knowledge of polish just standing in line while my coffee gets cold! nie żartuję!
unfortunately, i can walk to the place, so i use it a lot. i'm figuring i've wasted about a month of my life waiting in line here for coffee, and i've only lived here 2 years.
this place makes me so happy WaWa is coming to central jersey!!!!! yay WaWa!!! save us! WaWa should buy this place and burn it down in effigy to crappy convenience stores everywhere! every so often a fire engine will wake me from me up, and i'm jolted from my sweet slumber, dreaming the place is actually on fire. sadly, no such luck yet. but i'm a fairly optimistic person :) read more
