How can I stop feeling BAD for customers?

maezee @maezee (41988) • United States 28 Sep 09

I love where I work (part-time at a dry cleaners), but on occasion, I feel bad for some people because of the skyrocketting dry cleaning prices - so I'll give the customers discounts that they really don't DESERVE. For example,...

carlas I did the same thing with the fake discount when I worked at a drycleaners. I got i trouble because they made us keep all of the coupons! So if I felt bad for someone, or felt like they may be taken by surprise by the price I would actually invoice the items...

Tattoos

pstclaire @pstclaire (98) • United States 30 Aug 09

A couple came into the store where I work yesterday. They were covered in tattoos from their neck to their feet. I know this because the young lady was trying on the last of the bathing suits. They both had very attractive faces...

carlas I have about 15 tattoo's and I am a female in my 20's as well. I think that much like everyone else has their own personal hobbies, and ideas-- having tattoos is also one of these things. I love my tattoo's, and I love that it is a way for people to express...

Could you live near your family?

dreamr802 @dreamr802 (985) • United States 10 Aug 09

I know that this sounds bad, but I honestly do not think I can live close to my family. Even though I'm 24 now, they can't seem to let go. I understand that because I'm the first one completely out of the house they don't want to...

carlas I absolutely LOVE making lists! I make lists weekly sometimes daily with things to do and places to go. I usually don't discourage myself if I don't finish them all-- I just pass it on to the next day, and sometimes even the next day!

The least beer-tasting beer?

maezee @maezee (41988) • United States 29 Jul 09

I'm looking for the name of a GIRLY beer. (Not to put a gender to it..But most of my girl friends HATE beer, and I do, too!!). What's the least beer-tasting beer that you've ever had? And about how much is it? Someone told me...

carlas If you don't like the taste of beer-- don't drink beer! There are plenty of other options! I like Lienies Berry Weiss (But I think it's only seasonal)!

Have you ever been to ladies night at a bar?

maezee @maezee (41988) • United States 29 Jul 09

And what was it like, if you have? If you haven't, why not? It sounds like it's too good to be true, if you ask me. Ladies night, for those of you who aren't familiar, are usually certain days of the week where ladies either...

carlas Bars can afford to have FREE drinks for ladies because on ladies night they hike up the cost of drinks and cover for the men!

maezee @maezee (41988) • United States 29 Jul 09

I'm just curious to know. I've had it a couple times and it's just..ICKY! If you drink whiskey, WHY?!!

carlas It gets you drunk---thats probably why people drink it! It's not bad with diet coke! I always liked to dump out half of a bottle of diet coke, and pour jack daniels into the rest and bring it with me to the movies or to the golf course or whatever!

Favorite brand of vodka?

maezee @maezee (41988) • United States 29 Jul 09

What's your favorite brand of vodka? And about how much is it? & Can you actually TASTE the difference? I personally just think vodka is gross (unless it's masked by something like cranberry or strawberry juice!) and that no...

carlas They are all pretty much the same thing. And they pretty much taste the same! If you go to a bar and get a mixed drink, I can guarentee they are going to give you the cheapest vodka in your drink.

Driving in flip flops?

maezee @maezee (41988) • United States 14 Jul 09

Does anyone else have any difficulty driving with flip flops on? I always manage to somehow get part of it stuck under the brake and almost get in accidents and whatnot. Does anyone else have similar issues?

carlas I always drive in flip flops. But I just whip off the flip flops, and usually just drive barefoot. I feel like i have the most control when I am driving barefoot, like I can really get a grasp on the peddles.

Are you afraid of driving at night?

maezee @maezee (41988) • United States 14 Jul 09

Just out of curiousity. To me, I'm pretty OK with it - as I've had lots of practice. I only get nervous on country roads (I'm so scared of hitting deer!) and in areas that I'm not really used to. What about you guys? Are you...
