Some Days Are Better Than Others Page #2

Its, its a little girl.

- What?

- Well, um, I mean -

- What is that?

- Its the ashes

of a little girl.

- Where did it come from?

- I just found it,

I don't know what

to do with it.

- Well, who knows?

I guess we have to

do something about it.

- Its someone's child.

- Hi, this is Tom Bear

at the East Side

Receiving Center.

We found something

in our donations today

that we are unsure of

what to do with.

- Well, it appears to be

a cremation urn with

a person's remains in it.

Yes. Ashes.

Oh.

Oh, okay.

Hi, Mr. Bradshaw,

this is -

Oh, I see.

Okay.

Thank you very much.

They say we should

contact the police

and let them know

and wait to see

if someone comes to claim it.

- Where,

where do we keep it?

- I suppose you could

put it just right there.

If it were donated

on accident

then the owner

will track it down.

They probably just

don't realize

what they did.

I'll call the police

and report it.

I'll tell them.

- Hey, this is Brian.

Leave me a message.

- Hey, where are you?

Why aren't you

calling me back?

- Hi, this is Brian...

- Have a nice day.

People I swear...

Honey, are you okay?

You look terrible.

- I'm okay, I didn't

sleep very well last night.

Um, do you know what

the story is with

the new dog in pod 14?

- Oh, the poor thing.

Someone just dumped him

here Sunday night.

Tied up to

the front door.

He's in bad shape.

Are you sure

you're okay?

I don't know.

I love you so much.

- I'm excited to meet

your grandma.

- Yeah, she's excited

to meet you, too.

Wait...

Isn't she...

I can't remember if...

- The phone's ringing...

Aren't you going

to answer it?

Yeah.

Where is the phone?

Where's the phone?

Where are my pants?

- Hello?

- Eli...

The phone. Do you

wanna get it?

- What?

- The telephone. I

think its Manforce,

do you want to get it?

- Yeah, hold on.

- The company is called

Metro Estate Movers

and their office is at:

Street.

Your contact

there is Noel.

- Okay. Noel.

Alright, I'll head

right over.

- Have a good

day at work!

- Thank you.

-822 Southeast -

-228, 467

-822 Southeast

Water Street

- Man, with all

this temping

its almost like

you have a real job.

- Yeah and it

totally sucks, too.

- Aw. So much for

your theory

of the unemployed

blissful life style.

- Yeah, well these

student loan people

are starting to circle

like sharks.

Its starting to look

like I might

need to do something

with my life.

- Like temping?

- That's harsh, Aubrey.

No, I want to be a

substitute teacher.

But I can't get my

teaching certificate

until I get my degree.

I can't go back

to school until

I get this debt

paid off.

- Sounds like a

vicious cycle.

- Totally.

- If only Chloe

would get me a

production assistant job

on one of her film shoots.

- Wouldn't that go

against your

anti-corporate stance?

After all the crap

you've given me

about working for the

evil corporate

media machine?

- These debt collectors

are making me

rethink the whole

anti-corporate thing.

Or...

Maybe I can just

work on commercials

for bikes.

Or community gardening

centers or something.

- Yeah...

When's the last time

you saw a community

gardening commercial?

- Well, even if

they made those

I doubt they'd be

the jobs that pay

What am I saying?

As if I'll ever make

Sh*t, now watch...

I'm gonna be late

for my 9-dollar-an-hour

furniture moving job.

- Hey, its your turn

to take out the

recyclables this week.

And I should have

the bills figured out

in the next day or two.

And tell mystery

roommate if you

see her too.

Oh nice.

Good work.

- Dude, I've got money

to lose. Absolutely.

Correction, I have

money to win.

Thank you very much.

- Is this Metro State Movers?

- Yeah, just hang on

for a minute.

Yeah, I'm game if

you are!

Yeah, I got chips

No, actual betting chips.

I'll bring some Doritos,

too. I don't care. F*** it.

Chips and chicks man,

that's what I'm telling you.

Beer and b*tches.

Can't go wrong.

- Hey, is this a

good place to park?

- Sure

- What's wrong with that?

I don't care how

old they are -

alright, that's a lie,

never mind...

Alright man, I'll

call you back.

Yeah, Hall & Oates

just showed up.

Yeah, I'll call

you back. Later.

Classic.

Let's go.

- You're driving, you have a license, right?

- Yeah

Alright ladies, file in.

- Yeah?

Come in.

- Hi Mr. Bear. I'm

sorry to bother you, but

has anyone called

about the urn?

No, I haven't

heard anything yet, but

I talked to someone

at the police department

and they put a

notice in their

lost and found department.

So I'm sure someone

will call soon.

- What will we do if

no one comes for it?

- I don't think you

have to worry yourself

about that.

Its been reported.

Alright ladies, here's

the deal -

We're going to clear

everything out of this

house today.

And we're gonna

do it in two stages.

First, I'm going to

go through everything

and mark all the

good stuff with a sticker.

This is the stuff

we're going to keep.

It should be

packed up carefully.

Once we have the

good stuff packed up,

we'll get the rest

of the sh*t loaded

and get the f***

out of here.

There are boxes

and packing supplies

in the back of

the truck, so why don't

you guys open it up,

and bring that stuff in.

K?

Then go ahead and

get that piece of sh*t

out of here.

- Whoa, dude.

Shouldn't we warm

up or something

before we lift this?

- Come on, princess.

We got all day

to warm up.

- Alright

- So how long you been

working with this guy?

- Well, I got there two

minutes before you, so

- So you're with Manforce?

Well, I hate to think

of it in terms of

being "with" Manforce, but

yeah, that's who called

me this morning

and turned me on

to this enlightening

experience.

- Oh yeah?

Whatever, dude.

Whenever you're ready there,

we can do this.

- My name's Eli, by the way.

- Dale.

- Pleasure

- So what do we

do with this stuff?

- Either throw it away,

or give it to charity.

If its not obviously

trash,

put it in a box

and write "donation" on it.

- Okay, and the

dirty dishes...

I mean, do you

want to wash them

or throw them out?

- No. F***.

Just throw them in

the donation box.

They don't care

if its dirty.

Besides, they hire retarded people

to clean this stuff.

Don't throw anything

away you don't have to.

It costs money to

take sh*t to the dump.

But donating sh*t to

charity is tax deductible

- So what's the deal?

Who left all this

stuff here anyway?

- Some old lady's house

who just died.

Daughter lives in LA

and doesn't have time

to deal with it.

What about stuffy

with red stickers then?

I sell them.

On eBay.

I make a killing.

I don't make dick

on the furniture removal.

I underbid everyone

else, just so I can

get to the stuff first.

- So you're the reason

there's nothing cool

at the thrift stores

anymore?

So...

Why do you work

temp labor jobs?

I mean, I've never

been able to figure

out why anybody
