In brightest day, in blackest night
No typo shall escape my sight;
Let those who haven't learned to write
Beware my power, Mighty Editor's light!
If they deliver it to you on yellow paper, does the typo escape?
What if she's Golden Age? Paper is made of wood, right?
(obscure reference)
It's cutting-edge, numbnuts. And anyone who is doesn't talk about it.
Unless you are Moira Kelly and DB Sweeny.

Heh heh.
You read that one where Alan and either, like, Hal or Kyle are camping? And there's lots of great snark about such things?
You said WOOD.

No, I haven't. I should track that one down.
Quick rant.
When I work at least 45 hours a week, and at least 2 days a week am here until 7:30, plus work some Saturdays. It is really, really
really
not appropriate to tell me, "You sure don't make it easy for people who work, do you?" with a snitty attitude when I tell you I do not have a late appointment open next week.
First, it implies that I do not, in fact, work. Second, I am at work for a good amount of my week for very little money. You are telling me that your time is worth more than mine. Should I be here until 8:30? 9:30? What would fit your schedule best? No, no, it's fine. I don't have housework or a husband, or animals that need taking care of.
Sometimes, people have to take off work to make appointments. I have to do that quite often since I work from 9 to 6 or 7:30 to accomodate people like
you
who work and need late appoinments.
Signed,
Pretty Fucking Offended.
DJ - please tell me this is a customer, not a co-worker.
No, it was a customer. All of my coworkers-including my boss who just sent me on a smoke break-were equally offended.
ETA: They don't have to pay for our services either.
If a place wasn't open for an appointment when I got off work, I'd schedule during the work day and try to juggle my schedule. As it is, I can't get appointments during the day, either (and I don't work). Yeah, that customer's comment was just rude. He/she should not assume his/her time is any more valuable than anyone else's.
