I worked with a guy at REI who had no idea about women's sizing so when a customer asked him what s-m-l she should look for if her dress size is 10 he was guessing XL, because his wife was a size 2 so he figured size 10 was, like, 5 times as big and that sounds extra large? Lucky I was nearby to straighten that out.
So call me crazy, but isn't that something that someone who works in a store where they sell clothes should be trained in?
Well, it was part of our training, but people who were hired to work non-clothing departments might not get it right away, and apparently wouldn't necessarily realize they needed it.

Still, it's more logical than how women's sizes are actually determined, which is by rolling D20 dice and throwing darts at the alphabet.
Car-ma, please. I just got a new starter two weeks ago, and now for the first time it has to crank a few times before it turns over. Two for two starts today, it's going to the shop tomorrow morning. Even thought I hate spending the money, I can afford it, and I depend on that car too much. Maybe it's just the battery.
So both kids tonight decided they needed white noise stations to go to sleep, and now I'm listening to them from a few rooms away and zoinks I want to go to bed right now! And play a white noise station for myself
Almost 3am and I'm wide awake.
I hope you fell asleep right after posting, Zen. I was exhausted last night and slept (on and off) about 10 hours. Amazing that I didn't have nightmares since I was listening the Brian Williams and the Russian stuff as I fell asleep. And I didn't get up until 8! I woke at 6 as usual, but bed comfy, real world unappealing.
I was wide awake at 3, too. Took a sick day today.
All your sleep are belong to me.
I got home about 7:15, lay down to rest my aching back ... and woke up at 8:45. Went back to sleep and, aside from several trips to the bathroom to pee, slept through until 5:20 or so - before my alarm went off.
Sorry about that ...
