You know why? Because you're a decent human being. Unfortunately, you're in the minority.

dear starbucks person,

i am sorry my mommy yelled at you today. in her defense you did give her an almond croissant instead of a chocolate one three times in a row. she is allergic to almonds. normally i would have said something, but it was mothers day.

thank you,
freckle




three times in the same day?

aw, cute topic. thanks!

i had to work at my theater the last two christmases in a row. frown this is what i desperately wanted to tape to the front counter:



ATTENTION ASSHOLES: this is christmas for me, too. i'm working here so you can avoid your family and go see "Fat Albert" or whatever. here are some ground rules:


i wear a little red vest to work. i have no authority over what movies we are showing. don't complain to me when the one you want isn't here.

just because it's christmas doesn't mean your snacks will magically appear on the counter as soon as you dream them up.

don't ask me if a movie is appropriate for your kid. i don't know. and i'm going to say "yes" every time. if 9 1/2 Weeks was playing i'd say "yes".

under no circumstances are you to yell "HEY HEY HEY" at me.

if you were at a restaurant, would you dump your food all over the floor and leave it there? no? then why do you make me clean up your nasty dried nacho cheese every day?

i don't "upsale" because i enjoy it. i do it because if i don't i will get fired. instead of bitching at me, a simple "no thanks" would suffice.

yes, you have to stand in line EVEN ON CHRISTMAS!



thank god that hell hole closed down. now i have an excuse not to go back. smile

our theater is anything but crowded. and even if you DID spill it, the polite thing to do would be to tell one of the ushers so the mess can be cleaned up before it petrifies on the floor. it took me almost an hour once to clean one dried cheese mess because it had dried for about 2 hours to the carpet and the aisle tile.

Thanks!

If you guys really want to take a load off, please constrain your two year old from discovering the wonders of angular momentum with a tub of cheese fries.

i wish everyone had to work 6 months in a service industry job.


I did, hence this letter. wink I delivered pizzas and worked as a manager for four years or so.

Now I have a regular 9-5 in customer service, so I haven't REALLY escaped the idiots, but I don't have to wear a uniform, I don't work with food or hotels or anything like that, and I have my weekends free.

Having been on the other side, I figured I'd write this little note to let you know you ARE appreciated. I mailed a similar one to the staff at Ashley's because we had a great time there on Friday, and I remembered how much it used to suck that I had to work while everyone was having a great time.

Hmm, would work, though I must admit I can't go to work without my trusty cutter. I've actually filed down the locking mechanism on mine so that the blade won't lock open or closed. That way opening the knife, cutting the box and closing it is the one movement.

Man, I can't believe I'm discussing the technicalities of box-cutting with someone. I live an interesting life smile

What's all that? Someone needs a proper boxcutter. It's useless unless it comes open and cuts up all of your pockets. I hate those newfangled plastic deals. I generally just use a pocketknife now, though I am not a stockboyman anymore.
