Batteries

There are some definite perks to working in a sex shop. One of which is you will always have hard to find batteries. The downside, is when you need to use those batteries for stuff that doesn't vibrate, it's always awkward.


When I started living with people who also work at STORE it got less awkward and more funny. Amelia came into my room at one point and said, "Hey, do you have any AAA batteries?"

I looked at her and nodded slowly.


She looked at me.


Then she realized why we were staring at each other and politely left while I retrieved them. They went into our thermostat.



Recently my wireless mouse died. It takes one AA, and I was out. I poked my head into Molly's room. "Hey, do you have a AA battery I can have?" She gave me the same look I'd given Amelia. "You can take it out of a vibrator, I don't care." She nodded toward the one sitting out on her desk and I scurried off with it.
