Where's the toggle to turn on the pump for the Blood of the Innocent?
I'm looking at the Gas and Diesel, but that's all I see.
The guy is paying in silver dollars and starting to creep me out.
>>
>>66164962
Stare directly into that big green star that appeared last week for half a minute or so, and then look back at the pump, the adjustments to your eyes should have been made.
>>
>>66164962
You don't know how to get the pump for the Blood? Shit man. How have you survived this long?
>>
>>66163187
I almost slipped on a puddle of ooze and I'm pretty sure that one guy in a trenchcoat and mask who makes weird noises when he thinks no one notices is responsible. I swear, I'm gonna give that weirdo a piece of my mind.

Also is it just me or do parts of his clothes sometimes bulge out randomly. It's almost like a bunch of midgets standing on each other's shoulders jn that coat. Freaky.

>>
>>66167041
Sounds like a similar problem to what happened last month. And the month before that.
>>
>>66169692
Dammit, I keep telling you: once is an accident, twice is a coincidence, three times is a conspiracy. Next time, keep the invoice so we can find out who's sending us these fucking hornets.
>>
>>66166635
>>66169656
Its being made into a movie you know
>>
>>66167041
I've for real been there except it was raw and frozen fish not hornets.

Dayshift though. Part of the problem was nightshift had people that skip work or quarter-assed their work for like 8 weeks straight doing frozen, so the freezer was still full from previous unworked deliveries.

the raw stuff was just my boss being a dipshit on the one day a week I had off and ordering in my place.
>>
>>66169910
Fairly certain the last couple times this happened, we just received a sticky note with a smiley face on it instead of an invoice.
>>
>>66170169
This is why you check the invoice before accepting delivery.
>>
>>66170183
10,000 non-stinging Hornets seemed okay. If fucking day shift had ordered them they would have gotten stinging Hornets.

Played last night, pretty funny campaign. I gm'ed. Kinda had to throw things together last minute but luckily the people I was playing with were all really eager to play and stayed SUPER in character, even having in depth, in character conversations with each other while I was developing a certain plot point with other characters.

The case:
>Derrick Alejandro *other mexican name* Ramirez III
>Basically just a working class mexican guy, he's the cashier.
>Kevin
>He's a former NEET neckbeard with no social skills, he's just some extra help
>Clive
>Old former military guy, talks really softly and is somewhat oblivious. He's the shift manager
>Hunter
>Appalachian guy, obsessed with wrestling. Pretty friendly but also super dumb. Janitor/ custodian.
>Bradley
>His introductory lines were "alright listen up I graduated from stanford with a 2.1 GPA, I'm better than you dumb fucks"
>Basically just an entitled asshole, starts fights for no reason. He's in charge of stocking.

>They all banter for a while

>next, derrick and Clive notice a cop coming in
>Derrick gets everyone from the back and tells them to shut the fuck up
>He doesn't have a green card apparently
>Cop is mexican
>hola hermano
>cop says there was a breakout at a nearby asylum. he'll be patrolling the area tonight and popping in.
>Let me know if you see anything.

>If playing Night Shift should death be permanent?
part of me wants to say that perma-death should be optional, normally players pop back alive either in the morning when everything is back to normal, or by the start of their next shift, helps highlight how Sisyphean working at the Gas-N-Go is

basically most of the time if a character leaves the campaign it's either because they quit or because they got moved to day shift(one of the older ideas in the thread is that under normal circumstances it's incredibly hard to get fired, to avoid the obvious "intentionally do stuff specifically to get fired" route)

Funny you should say that, man. Just had this trucker come through here not an hour ago. Had one hell of a thirsty rig; must've been running that thing on fumes. He said the weirdest thing to me as I was ringing him up. It was something like:
>You remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have you paid your dues, Jack? Yes, sir, the check is in the mail."

I figured he was some scab, running on Jolt and pills, talking about some labor dispute. To be honest, I didn't really follow half of what he said - I was too busy watching those weird Goth kids who've been hanging around the arcade machines like a bunch of lost souls, just in case one of them decided to jimmy the coin door while I was distracted.

Not going to forget his rig, though. Mid-80s Freightliner, but looked like it just came off of the line yesterday.

Hey guys, just a friendly reminder that the giant jumping spider eggs from last breeding season are due to hatch at some point this week which means the giant skinks will be coming in soon for the annual feeding frenzy. Please remember to warn all customers to keep small pets and infants either in their vehicles with the windows up and doors closed or on their person if it's a particularly hot night. We don't need any more complaints about someone's purse dog being dragged off by a guinea pig sized spider or a gator sized lizard.

well as I said before, actually getting fired from the Gas-N-Go should be near impossible to actually happen, for one thing since the Gas-N-Go is always restored from any major damage once morning comes(though it might still be a mess), the worst punishment you'll get most of the time is getting chewed out by day shift or getting your wages garnished for a month

Gas-N-Go is kind of generic. Even a non-American gets the idea. A bit like the old gag Stephen King put in one of his books about a gas station with a small counter-service diner - the sign outside read "EAT HERE/GET GAS".

They don't attempt to come every night so you might be fine. I'd still suggest calling out sick for your next shift if you have any days left.
>>
>>66204192
That would do it. The entity that steals chocolate and the entity that steals pastries are two distinct entities. I understand the confusion because there thefts sometimes overlap a bit when we have chocolate pastries available. Just remember pig equals pastries, cow equals chocolate and you should be fine. You were smart to use pig blood when no cow blood was available. At least your soul isn't being auctioned off like mine was.

How do you guys keep the Twinkies from growing big enough to tear the wrappers? One of the Dumpster Ravens told me to eat all of them if I ever wanted to see the Sun again. I ate one and I think I am still getting fuller.
>>
Who sent us this new jukebox? I'm not complaining, our mysterious benefactor has good taste in music, but every time I play Electric Eye, I feel like I'm being watched. And don't get me started on the time I played Bourbon Street - I don't care how much money that guy sank on snacks and drinks, he's been dead for at least a decade!

Was the crow's left eye a sort of milky gray?

Place near Las Vegas. Had this guy with an Egypt obsession come in. Nice suit, sweet ride, awesome beard. He had this buddy with him who was apparently blind but could walk around fine and hated being helped. The blind guy was dressed even better. Turns out they came here looking for some munchies after a poker game of some sort. Both of them were super spooky but the Egypt guy was nice enough to take the edge off. They ordered so much shit that I needed to help them carry out. Egypt guy gave me five bucks, blind guy gave me this silver coin. All paid for in cash. Not a big deal people like to have money on them so they don't run up their credit card.
Half an hour after they leave, this Jeep rolls up and a fucking Command Sergeant Major in full uniform steps out. Apparently the blind guy is his brother and he was looking for him. Name tag just says Michael. What he's doing in uniform I'll never know, but he left as soon as I pointed him in a direction.
All three guys were very polite, though I still haven't fallen asleep since I saw them. Does this shit happen for Day Shift, too?

Hey night shift, a couple of kids spilled 57 cans of high fructose grape soda, and my shift is over in like 5 min, can you be helpful for once and sort the mess out thanks?

-Dave
>>
>>66206982
Go fuck yourself, Dave. Guess who keeps this place running and not getting eaten by demons whilst you and your buds are off shacking hookers? Not your holier-than-thou ass that's for sure.
>>
>>66206982
Leave the mess, put up a caution sign and leave a note saying "no".
>>
>>66206862
It was, right? Sorry, doc, you got pranked.
That crow's only a fairweather friend to the Dumpster Crows, his owner stops by every now and then to crash in the basement, and the crow hangs out at the dumpster, dispensing fake prophecies.
We've tried to tell him to cut it out, but he's not listening.
Go grab some antacid from the green bottle in the medicabinet, that'll sort you out.

>>66206982
Y'know, I swear I looked up and down the aisles, but I can't see the soda spills.
...Do you think we've got another gelatinous cube?
>>
>>66207127
Praise Bob! I feel much better. I gave all the Twinkies to the Wino Senate who lurk in the neighborhood. They seemed really happy and made me an honorary member! They even gave me an old golf club with feathers and rat skulls tied to it. They called it the Sacred Putter of MGTOW, whatever that means.

Would having a cult commune in the are be taking things too far?
>>
>>66201491
>Gas-N-Go is kind of generic. Even a non-American gets the idea. A bit like the old gag Stephen King put in one of his books about a gas station with a small counter-service diner - the sign outside read "EAT HERE/GET GAS".
exactly

>>66201176
>The asshole who lives behind the milk refrigerator said it's because the taste of cherry coke is the closest sensory substitute for the feeling of amassing a hoard, but I've also seen panicky notes from the day shift telling us not to listen to him, so take that as you will.
Day Shift shouldn't know about the supernatural stuff

>>66209797
>Would having a cult commune in the are be taking things too far?
back a long while ago when we were discussing the region surrounding the Gas-N-Go(from the stuff that's right next to it, all the way to the nearest full size town) there were a couple spots mentioned that would be good for sticking a cult in if necessary
>>
>>66209797
>having a cult in the area
>not having a cult commune in the 2nd stall in the gents' bathroom, because they believe that the words displayed by the graffiti as it undulates and morphs between languages is a New God trying to communicate with them

You gotta think less logically

Attention all night shift employees:

That is all.

What's supernatural about the asshole behind the milk refrigerator? He's just an asshole who lives behind a milk refrigerator.
>>
>>
>>66210792
Yeah, it's better to know where the cult is at all times instead of not knowing.

Anyways, I just want to let you all know that I lost the cult.
>>
>>66212443
Did you check in the credit rack? They like to dig through our expired food items.
>>
>>66211892
Day Shift thinks he is the District Manager's brother. He scares the shit out of them.

I consider him about a 2.3 on the Gonzometer and just leave him alone.
>>
>>66210792
>>66212443
>>66212461
Yeah, they act appropriately weird with the chanting, vegan diet, and blood sacrifices; but can they count as a real cult if there only two old Asian men and a squirrel?

Granted, the squirrel is really creepy.
>>
>>66212492
>>
>>66212443
What do they believe?

>They even gave me an old golf club with feathers and rat skulls tied to it. They called it the Sacred Putter of MGTOW, whatever that means.
Dude that's a hell of a score! Used correctly that thing can hit anything even the stuff that can't normally be hit.

Now I can play golf with the ghost in the Slushie machine, great.
I would rather gotten the Everflowing Bottle of MadDog 20/20, you can run your car on that stuff.

thanks

>>66175756
This sounds like a great time. Thanks for sharing it.
>>
>>66233010
Yeah, no. That's the lazy-ass night shift from the night before. Day shift is too fucking stupid to lock the chest freezer, much less put a demon/what-have-you in it.
>>
>>66233010
Leave it for them to do it. Management won't do shi t because nobody else wants your shit ob.

This job ain’t all bad, a norse longboat drove up and a cohort of vikings got out and bought all our Keystone. They gave me this sweet horn as a memento. Cool guys.

>>66221527
The man that pays in silver pays his coins in pairs. A penny for the ferryman and penny to come back, the toll of kings and lords down the ages when they cheat their final days. But those lords don't have those coins anymore, they've come back into circulation.
>>
>>66237889
Say, by any sliver of a chance, did you blow into the horn? Because there's a valkyrie up here in the maintenance crawlspace.
>>
>>66242097
dude, that's a succubus, she's LARPing.

Blow the horn, baby!
>>
>>66242180
I thought she was down there? She grabbed one of those silver bottles with the melon-flavor sports drink last I saw, and the one up here doesn't seem to have a tail...

Hi nightshift, it's Dave again.

Hey dayshift, you just have to do anything.

Derikk: Hey Brad?
Brad: Yeah, Sup NewDerikk?
Derikk: I went to get my first paycheck, and all I got was an envelope with some candycorn in it. I'm OK with getting pranked cuz I just started here, but I...
Brad: How much candycorn?
Derikk: A handful, maybe a couple dozen pieces...
Brad: (pulls out wallet) I'll give you $20 each for all of them!
Derikk: What!? Why?
Brad: Do you want the money or not?
>>
>>66252801
I can't see how planting the corn could have any possible repercussions of a negative nature at all. Nope. Not at all.

On a totally unrelated note this is your reminder that nothing is insured against Giant attack, especially not your health.
>>
>new guy comes in to complain about his candycorn pay
>everyone on shift swarms him for it
