Most Dysfunctional Places in Santa Maria
I decided to write this blog while I was wating in the drive-thru line at Taco Bell.....

#1-The Taco Bell by Edwards Theatre
I actually have a lot of stories about this one, therefore I'm naming it the most dysfuntional place in Santa Maria. Here are a couple reasons: one time I wanted to drive-thru before I caught a movie at Edwards but there were police cars surrounding the place so I couldn't. Another time I was eating there with Steven and this guy was standing outside talking to us about the Chumash Casino bus (he was really excited about it). Last time I went there they were out of beans... beans people! And today, I waited in the drive-thru line for about half an hour. Don't get me wrong, I love taco bell, but I have to say, this one just isn't up to par.

#2-The Admin Department at Hancock
What's with the two lines thing guys? You wait in the first line to turn in whatever paperwork you have, then you have to wait in the second line for a really long time to get your receipt. LAME. Why can't they just have one line? Do you guys hear me on this one?

#3-Wal-Mart
Of course. I really don't think this one needs an explanation.

#4-Blockbuster Video by Kohls
I went there one time expecting to pay some late fees and rent "Stranger Than Fiction." When I brought the movie up to rent it they guy asked me for my info because I didn't have my card. I told him and he said, "Is your name Sara?" I said, "No, that's my sister." He pretty much said whatever and checked out the movie under her name. I guess they erased my late fees and my account. Sweet deal for me.... not so much for my sister if I turned the movie in late....

#5-USA Gas Station
That place scares me a little bit. It always crazy busy and they have Subway inside to after people get gas they go inside and get Subway. Meanwhile, I'm waiting for my turn to get gas while that person is standing in the Subway line. They always have the weirdest people working there too. Remind me to tell you guys about the coughing lady...

Well, there you have it. I would have listed my work on there too but I'm not brave enough. Maybe some other day. Love you guys!

Amen to most of those:
Taco Bell: YES! I totally agree. That place is so slow and ridiculous!
Blockbuster: We got a notice in the mail from them that we hadn't turned in a movie when we had. Then when Michael called to clear it up, they couldn't even find our name in the system at first!
Wal-Mart: I'm on the fence about this one!

I love that we know all these places so well that we know exactly what you're talking about! So thanks for bringing to the surface all our hidden thoughts on the silliness of Santa Maria!

Haha, I was there for #4 and that was pretty funny. We should have totally bought candy and soda and charged it. :-D
