I almost spit my Pepsi out just now. I gave blood this morning and in the questionnaire room they had one hanging. I asked the phlebotomist if she had this new year's calendar yet already knowing the answer.

She said her driver hadn't given them all one yet. I told her that they better find a new source for the calendar cuz we too cheap to give em anymore. She almost had a look of resentment towards me and said, "Wish the UPS guy would have told us that before we gave all OURS away during the last blood drive."

I couldn't help but laugh even knowing that this was a mistake as she would soon be puncturing my vein...

I doubt their driver even know. All of ours and even my management don't know we are not getting calendars this year.

I have always hung a UPS calendar on my kitchen wall. I would write down my vacation weeks, doctor appointments, and other important dates. I had a lot of customers that would always ask for one. Just another tradition the bean counters did away with.

I give blood 3 or 4 times a year at the VFW Red Cross blood drives. I swear the Red Cross calls me every other week to donate. They would suck a person dry if you let them.
My sister and her husband give blood every 6-8 weeks. The Red Cross calls or texts them all the time!

I can give weekly but have been averaging every two weeks. I get free Amazon cards and t-shirts.

The Red Cross sells about 2 billion dollars worth of blood annually to hospitals and other organizations. You donate - they sell--That's a pretty good gig for them.
