I worked at a department store throughout high school and much of college, so I become frustrated super quickly when retail employees are unhelpful. I mean, I KNOW that major department stores can query their entire network of stores, nationwide, via their computer to find an item if it is out of stock! If the employee does any less, they’re slacking.

She who was a waitress at various times through her life understands your issues with your experience. Whatever happened to customer service?

Great photo’s - loved the scanner and every other item it could be! Just catching up right now - glad to have you back.

Still Bossy’s beating heart! What a Stella double. Let’s hope she has similar longevity. Thanks for the photo (and the rest - which look like Bossy’s own family album!)

This is why I don’t own a scanner. There is no need for anyone to see any photos of me in my youth.

Because I had glasses like that. They were BLUE. And went well with my 10-foot high mall hair bangs.

Maybe I should get a scanner. Hilarity would ensue.

I was a server/bartender/bitch for over 5 years. Ex-servers are THE WORST people to wait on. We critique everything and we expect everything to be perfect. Of course, we always tip at least 30% for good service, too.

And I LOVE the shorts. snort snort.

If the food order is bad, I say so. I don’t complain if it’s someone else at the table. Ass Burger Boy found a hair in his salad, and the waitress was mortified. I laughed because he has been known to lick jello off the floor. We came back to the same place a week later, and the food was horrible. I reminded them we made no fuss about the hairy salad, and they comped us our meal. The thing is, when the food is horrible, there is a one bite rule. Allow the wait staff to see that you have declined to eat it. Wait for them to ask why. Then explain. This doesn’t work well when you’re famished.

Oh, she is beautiful!
I’m usually the one who stays quiet with dodgy orders, and Jase/Mum are the ones who fight and get it fixed.

I thought of you the other morning when Boo wandered over to my sleeping brother (more like passed out) and licked him awake. You would be proud.

Bad service sucks. Especially when it is not McDonalds.

Yay for the pictures! What a lovely horse.

Oh. Mah. Gawd. Did you have to wax before you painted those babies on?
