Better days?
Mar. 25th, 2004 08:43 amThis morning is decent, so far. I bought a maple dip -- I haven't had one in several months -- and oh, it was good! The cashier was nice; I said "have a nice day" and she genuinely replied "thanks, you too." Plus, I called Cingular and got a real answer as to why my order is taking so long. I'm trying to port my old # from one company to Cingular, and it's the other company that's not moving forward with the port. They put in a work ticket for IT to get the port taken care of, said that it will take 24-72 business hours, and informed me of the ticket number. Customer service! Halle-fricken-lujah!

I just enlightened you. Opened up your mind. You became a jaded Californian. You had forgotten what it's like when someone actually says "you're welcome" or "no problem" or "no, thank you" or even "don't thank me, thank that little whore you're with." It sometimes takes a wise Canuck to show you where your manners are amuck. That's a famouse saying. Remember it and keep on minding your P's & Q's. I have no idea why it's P's & Q's... Perhaps it's Peas & Queues. Yes. That seems to make sense.
Ah well, pass the maple.
Of course. Pass it around. Maple's always better with friends.

... or even "don't thank me, thank that little whore you're with."
You know, you're right. I'm going to start saying this to everyone who thanks me. In the grocery store, at the mall, at work; think of all the good we could do if we just start saying those 9 little words. Let's hold hands.

It works extremely well when you say it to a mother shopping with her young daughter. Or an older man shopping with his elderly mother. Those are the best reactions. Nothing like spreading some love...
