People who ask your opinion about something ( and every one else's ) and regardless of what sensible arguments there hear, turn around and do exactly what they intended to do in the first place!!! Then have the audacity to ask your opinion again with their next problem and you're crazy enough to give it to them

Too bad it was only at the pharmacy! I went to check my lottery ticket today in the Mall. There was two women behind the counter at the kiosk. I walked up and checked my ticket on the counter scanner and heard the one woman swearing a blue streak about their lack of space and the mess. The other one was on the phone. I then dug around in my purse to find change to buy another and stood there while they conversed on who's mess was who's. I was very patient and happy as I wasn't in any hurry. Finally the one who'd been on the phone looked at me and said " Sorry we're closed for a shift change" I said O.K. and left. I wasn't about to let it get to me. Poor service and grumpy people seem to be the norm. I refuse to let them drag me down to their level

Why don't you just stop eating it, then?

Puke one time on the table and I'll bet they'll give you a pass from then on.

I doubt they would appreciate that, however, I'm sure you are right....I do try to claim fullness or something...my hubby knows I HATE his mother's cooking so generally I can get away with it without starving myself...

You should try eating non-seasoned meals that my mother-in-law cooks. She used to be a pretty good cook until someone told her that not only salt, but all seasonings were bad for you.

My mother in law just doesn't know that seasonings exist...unless it's for pizza sauce, in which case she goes WAY overboard, so I do actually know where you are coming from...try eating deer/dove/duck, that has no seasonings to help reduce the "gamey" taste...that is pure hell!!

Have an engineer at another facility who does exactly that. Very frustrating.

btw, I'm not that crazy anymore,,, well, at least in that regard.
