Hi Nic
Never been to America but i have to agree, they have the right attitude to customer service.
Some of our shops/supermarkets have more people wandering about filling shelves and taking stock counts, and people are waiting at the tills just wanting to get served and get home.

I hate shopping!!!

Hey Linf, I so agree with you about customer service.

It's strange that I have frequently heard us Brits being cynical about American customer service and the "have a nice day" attitude, but actually they work really hard and you generally get great customer service.

I say, vote with you feet. I ignore shops (and chains) where I get crap service as I dislike a ruck and I get angry like you and you never win.

[linfield100]

What pisses me off is the poor customer service in shops.
It's like they're doing you a favour just serving you.
I went in my local newsagents and the young serving wench was browsing the confectionary display.

I stood at the counter for a few minutes and she continued to ignore me.
"What are you doing?" I asked, getting frustrated.

"I'm hungry" she replied "An I'm trying to decide which chocolate to have"

Another time the wife and myself entered a coffee shop, and as I like strong tasty coffee, I looked at the different varieties on the chalkboard.
I asked the wench (Why are they always young dumb broads, cheap I suppose)
"Which coffee is the strongest?"
"The Black" she answered

I nearly wet myself.

Paying for plastic bags, went to WHSMITH today, was told its a penny a bag, now come on whats the bloody point in that? now charge a quid a bag and I can see the logic

[Robusto]

go slow

More speed limit restrictions proposed in the news.

More roads to be reduced from 60mph to 50mph.
More roads to be reduced from 30mph to 20mph.

That means more doddery people driving at 40mph and 10mph and holding me up even more on the poxy roads hereabouts.

Annoying.

You sound stupid!!! dont try and talk like your from the west indies either when 1. you dont even know where it is and 2. you've never been 5 miles from the deprived estate you were in-bred on and wear your cap the right way round, pull your trousers up, get a job talk properly and realise there is a bigger world out there.

I recently bought a bird feeder.. I hung it on my patio and filleds
it lovingly with seed. It was indeed a beautiful bird feeder. Within a week we had hundreds of birds taking advantage of the continuous flow of free and easily accessible food.

But then the birds started building nests in the boards of the patio, above the table, and next to the barbecue. Then came the bird shit. It was everywhere; on the patio tiles, the chairs, the table, everywhere!

Then some of the birds turned mean. They would dive bomb me and try to peck me even though I had fed them out of my own pocket.
And other birds were boisterous and loud. They sat on the feeder and squawked and screamed at all hours of the day and night and demanded that I fill it when it got low on food.

After a while, I couldn't even sit on my own back garden anymore. So I took down the bird feeder and in three days the birds were gone. I cleaned up their mess and took down the many nests they had built all over the patio. Soon, the back garden was like it used to be ... quiet, serene
and no birds demanding their rights to a free meal.

Now let's see ....
Brown & our government give out free food, subsidised housing,
free medical care, and free education and allows anyone born here to be an automatic citizen.

Then the illegals came by the millions. Suddenly our taxes went up to pay for the free services; small flats are housing 5 or more families; you have to wait 6 hours to be seen by a doctor in an emergency surgery because it is filled with illegal non tax payers; your child's year 12 class is behind other schools because over half the class doesn't speak English.

Corn Flakes now come in a bilingual box; I have to 'press one' to hear my bank talk to me in English, and people waving flags other than 'The Union Jack' are squawking and screaming in the streets, demanding more rights and free liberties.
Its just my opinion but: maybe, just maybe, it's time for the government to take down the bloody bird feeder.

Robusto you need to clear your PMs as I cannot send as there is not enough file space in your PM box!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've already told him, but he's having too much fun smoking stogies in Teddington, watch for what I predict will be a particularly happy post:

(To be said in a cod Geordie accent) Day 136 of Robusto's holiday and he's lollygagging in a leather sofa, no change there then, in a castle in Teddington.
