jenius It isn't so much what they say as it is lack of common manners. People providing customer service in stores ,restaurants etc...are human and should be treated as such not looked through or ignored.

jenius I agree with everything you say except about the potatoes...it is my understanding that when a potato is baked there is no way for the starch to be released. When they are boiled a lot of the starch goes into the water.
