]]> Comment on Waggin’ Trails: Barking and blogging by Eydie http://sacmainline.com/2010/03/waggintrail/comment-page-1/#comment-986 Eydie Thu, 29 Sep 2011 23:50:29 +0000 http://sacmainline.com/?p=258#comment-986 Hello Lina, Thank you for your comment. I enjoyed contributing to this blog but I have not added to it since the Magazine at SCC is by semester and 2010 was my final semester there. I will however begin posting new Waggin Trails adventures on my own blog on WordPress.Com. soon this fall(small reviews and past bits on our adventures up and down the coast), but I aim to launch it with more dog park and dog friendly news in the spring of 2012 after the rains. Sincerely, Eydie Mendoza Hello Lina,

People will call on the phone all the time with a list of 10 or more things and expect me to tell them everything about the item and then hold it for them so that all they have to do is go to customer service to pick it up. If it is one thing that you need held, fine no big deal, but otherwise I am not being paid to shop for you because you are too lazy. BTW I work at a craft store, and about 90% of our customers are female. Very often a wife will be too lazy/ "busy" to come in and will send in her poor child/husband to find a crap load of stuff for her and he has no idea what any of it is and so hunts me down to find it all. I feel for the husband because they have often been sent back 2 or 3 times in a row at that point for picking up the wrong thing and so enlists me. Have your freaking lazy ass wife come in and get what she wants herself. One a mother did this with her daughter and we had to return a scrapbooking machine 3 times because the daughter didn't know which one to get. Also I hate when someone will ask me where something is and when I proceed to lead them to the item they stop and start looking at something else and ignore me waiting to help them. Why waste my time? Or when they drag me around the store helping them find all sorts of crap for a project or a wedding and then I find it all ditched or left upfront for me to reshop. So why did I just spend 20 minutes helping this person who only bought one of the 15 things I showed them? If you changed your mind, put the flippin thing back, as you DO know where it is now!

So i am at the moment using Wordpress for several associated with the internet sites yet interested to change one too onto a good software similar to your own house like a trial run go. Just about anything defined you would recommend concerning this? Gday, only window shopping a few blogs, would seem a fairly wonderful program you are applying.

It is the height of rudeness. I think it should be right up there with #1 (people yakking on their cell phones while you're trying to help them.) I deserve as much respect as you, the customer, do. I am not beneath you and I am not carrying any infectious diseases. Please have the common courtesy to HAND ME THE MONEY instead of shoving it across the counter. Pet Peeve #11:

I've often thought about buying a motorcycle but the loud noise they make really bothers me. Are mopeds loud? Strangely, I don't really see many moped riders in Sacramento, what's up with that I wonder...? Thanks for sharing the info Troy. Interesting, 100 mpg!
