i like working at plant store. sometimes you ring up someone and there's a slug on their plant and so you're like "Oh haha you've got a friend there let me get that for you" and you put the slug on your hand for safekeeping but then its really busy and you dont have time to take the slug outside before the next customer in line so you just have a slug chilling on your hand for 15 minutes. really makes you feel at peace with nature. also it means sometimes i get to say my favorite line which is "would you like this free slug with your purchase"

Working at Home Depot, we find a lot of friends in Garden. Unfortunately, we don’t let them hitch a ride while we work, because we go inside a lot during spring and summer. Plus we have a couple customer service ladies that will “kill us” if we get within twenty feet of them with a critter. It’s their loss though, because we find lots of frogs and toads, my friend found what we think are male and female praying mantis with 30mins or so of each other last year, a giant snail (biggest we’ve ever seen in garden since I started 4yrs back) and a bee that needed a snack and warm sun.

I can't find an article in English but essentially in France it is a common children's prank to on April Fool's put little paper fish on people's backs and it's called "poisson d'Avril" (April Fish). when i was in school in our french classes we would hide paper fish around the school as well and i took great joy in wedging mine in deeply impractical places that im honestly not sure were ever found. looking at it now, my French teachers had billed it as a Whole Separate Holiday but it actually seems more to be like a cultural in-joke/France-Specific April Fool's Prank lol whoops

regardless I like it better than some of the more mean spirited stuff I've seen associated with American April Fool's day

can't be mad at someone just taping one of these lil guys to your back right !
