Personally (re: the Seattle thing), I think Whole Foods should tell Seattle to #fsck 0ff and build their store somewhere else.


I would love it if they would aim 15 miles south of the Seattle city limits.

I think for the interim I am going to boycott large fast food chains, and big pizza places. I will go to local establishments or mom & pops style shops.

I will do my best to say **** you to the employees that have that over inflated of an opinion of following a diagram on how to make a **** cheeseburger, and not remember the actual process.

Hell I worked there over 20 years ago, and I almost remember how to put the damned things together. The only thing I am having difficulty recalling was if the mustard and Ketchup go above or below the meat.

Mayo
Ketchup
Pickles
Onion
Tomato
Lettuce
Mustard
Bacon
Cheese

Bottom Bun.

Must be the same folks who stick a Styrofoam cup next to the register (or worse, outside the drive thru window) with the word "tips"on it, actually expecting something to go into it other than trash.

Restaurant servers are paid an even less wage than fast food workers and make the majority of their money from tips for their service. I don't tip people doing exactly what they were hired to do, and especially when what they do isn't even tip-worthy.

My mailman and I had a tense standoff before he finally retired because I never gave him Christmas "gifts" (read: Cash!!). I stopped getting Saturday mail and he got reported weekly.

Also, I'd imagine the chance of getting a correct order was higher via kiosk, given that only the customer and the cook could screw it up, without the cashier acting as a third opportunity for **** (and you can confirm your order on the screen, I assume).

Holy crap, this.

I tip for service, not for transactions.

I wish I had the same mailman more than 2 days in a row. Two of them are awesome and I'd be happy to give them a bonus I n the holidays...the other two, not so much...

You actually interact with your mail delivery person? Weird.

Our mailbox is across the street from my house due to us being located directly after a blind corner. 2 of our mail carriers will bring our mail up to us if they see us getting out of the car or getting ready to cross over and pick it up, the other two usually forget to close the mailbox after jamming everything in there as poorly as possible...

Ahh, I see.

Ours drives up to the box, opens the doors, puts the mail in, and drives off. They show up when they show up, and I actually physically see the mail truck like once a month.
