| Ooh. Yay. Picture instructions. |
|
The UPS guy just delivered a kitchen cart and I get to assemble it.
There are dozens of parts and no words whatsoever -- just line drawings and arrows and apparently some of them are shelves and some are supports and what the hell are those "L"-shaped things?
I have an utter inability to follow picture instructions. I need words. Can't anyone string together a sentence anymore?
If I don't show up for work tomorrow, it's because I've trapped myself within the kitchen cart while assembling it. Call for help. Thanks.
