Our downtime this weekend prevented me from mentioning the WTF? wait service I received at Saturday lunch when I drove back through Tallahassee to try the locally-owned seafood restaurant again.
When my waitress approached the table she first asked if I had any questions about the menu. I did, and her answer led directly to me saying that sounded great and ordering the dish I asked about. Whereupon she huffed, introduced herself and said welcome to the restaurant in a snippy tone that made it clear she was put out and expecting an apology for my jumping the gun. Then she brought me the wrong salad dressing, pointedly avoided eye contact for the next 10 minutes or so while passing by repeatedly, and never brought promised napkins or a straw (which I didn't need, but you better believe I noticed by the fourth lapse after making me feel awkward and unwelcome).
Now the food itself came out quickly and was so spectacular it would have made up for anything short of being served via being mashed directly into my face James Cagney-style. But she only got 12% rather than a one penny tip because I didn't want to stiff the miracle workers in the kitchen. And if I'd been staying in Tallahassee rather than passing through with another 370 miles to go that day, the manager and I would have had a grim conversation about customer service.
This was the answer!
The things one learns from doing a play about Rothko (also abstract expressionist).
Matt was it the Wharf Express? They have a history of uneven business practices and service. And a history of rumors of shady business dealings. Like one of the restaurants burnt down (years and years ago) and it was treated as an accident and the insurance cleared it. But the rumor was one of the family members burned it down so they could get the insurance and afford a different location.
Jockey has a new bra out that is supposed to fit like a dream. they send you a kit where you can get your measurements and then the bra comes.
I have ordered a kit. I will report back.
I remember seeing the kit cost $20. Is that still the case? If so, can you apply that to the bra purchase or something?
If there's a kit that prevents me from buying a bra whose straps slip off my shoulders, I might spend some money on it. My one light coloured bra is awful like that. Next time I take in one of the purple ones and see if I can get the same style in beige.
ita, you should check out Jenette. I've heard they do a seriously excellent job fitting and have amazing customer service. Spendy, though. [link]
ita, yes, it applies to a bra purchase.
man, I'll check out jenette too. my bra problems are legion.
Kat, I shop at Intimacy because it's close to home and the service is helpful but not Teavana. The beige bra is the only miss--the black bras and the purple ones are both great fits and pretty. I'm not sure how to tell that an hour in I'll be grabbing inside my shirt every fifteen minutes, especially since racerback is verboten.
it applies to a bra purchase
That's more reasonable. But Jockey doesn't have enough of my trust to make a deposit on the boobage. I'll wait for testimonials ::chinhands::.
