It's YouTube Monday people.  You've been waiting all weekend for this moment, haven't you?  It's ok to admit that.  We're all friends here.

Today I'm bringing you a funny HEB commercial featuring Brent Barry.  For those of you not from Texas, HEB is a popular grocery story chain.  

My first job was at HEB.  The one over there on Culebra and, uh, Tezel?  Grissom?  I don't remember.  I'm not sure I ever knew.  I started as a bagger and then soon became a checker.  I'm telling you I was a damn checker prodigy.  Russet potatoes, produce code 4072.  I still gots it!  

One thing that's a lot different about the west coast... checkers are slow out here.  At HEB they kept track of items scanned per minute.  I was around 30-35.  Out here the checkers top out at about 10.  Part of that is the setup of the registers, but I mostly blame the darn unions.

HEB needs a damn baggers union.  I remember doing "cart runs."  Middle of the summer, 98 degrees, blazing sun, and I'm out wrangling grocery carts for an hour at a time.  And the humidity reeked all sorts of havoc on my hair.
