I had to tell a teen aged checker at the grocery store to get off of the phone with her boyfriend and pay attention to her work while checking out my groceries the other day. You are completely right. Too many of these young people have their priorities all screwed up. When it's time to work then it's time to work. get off of the damn cell phone and get after it or hit the road.

I got very agitated when I went to the swimming pool and the lifeguard was more interested in making out with her boyfriend than watching the pool. Fortunately, it was the kiddie pool so there were lots of parents watching the kids, but that's no excuse. I don't know what happened after I reported it. We haven't been back to that pool.

She had a fat *** too.
Ever consider that maybe your attitude is part of the problem?

yeah, it was discussed before how her *** has nothing to do with it, and a bad attitude can only make things worse. With no proof of illegality, it is a fairly racist and stereotypical remark to refer to him as an illegal.

I agree, I completely agree that she should not be making out with her boy friend, but if she were to make out with here girl friend then I'm ok...

WOW!!! Am I ever glad I have a great partsman! "Jerry" even gave me his home phone # So if it's 2AM I can still get what I need to be on the road the next day! After reading this I better buy him flowers or choclates or something! Of course it's a small town auto parts place, but the service keeps me coming back! I'm just afraid it's a dying business. Soon we won't have a choice but Walmart!

I just never thought his attitude towards customer service was so unusual.

Don't let Josh bug you. We've seen pictures of him in pink flip flops.
