can we make a little rule for consumers… on behalf of everyone in the service industry, the cashier, the waitress, the cab driver…everyone who provides you a service…talk to us OR talk on your phone. while you are yammering on and on about ‘ashley like totally flamed you onlike, facebook and she changed her msn name to kelly hater 4 life” i have shit to do. i love my job, but i have shit to do. and listening to your one sided business meeting about how “the reports were due yesterday and the email server was down, tara didn’t cometo work, she didn’t have a babysitter and ronald was stuck in traffic” i still don’t know if you want onions on your sandwich. can you talk to me first? please?

I totally AGREE…100%…I don’t want you necessarily to start a life long friendship or even a huge conversation with me, just acknowledge me as I wait patiently trying to provide you with a service, BUT the same goes oh wait…that’s another bitch 😉
