    I did quote you and said that fatletiss said it would be ok. I did hear here whispering to her supervisor saying "whisper, whisper, fatletiss, whisper". It was then the discount was applied :)

    I think it was that they haven't updated 'their systems' from last year. I did hold my ground though and politely made sure she checked with others. All the time the queue was getting bigger and you could see the light bulbs lighting up on others :)

    I told my mate he must have too much money as after the wait and 2 people we saw, he said was that hassle really worth a fiver....

    I did point out that I bet on Saturday he does the same :)

    Absolutely. I had some man shouting at me the day I was found to have a heart rate of 200 and was told to avoid shocks. An absolute bully....and I was someone known to have no trouble with customers. I never went back to work. Most customers are lovely, but some men, and it is usually older men, try to prove their manhood by being unpleasant to those that can't answer back.

    I always like to treat people serving me in retail (shop or restaurant) with respect. They’re doing a job. I do push back (politely) if I don’t think I’m getting the service I pay for though.

    This week I bought my daughter a new laptop. The service from the two very young lads, was wonderful. Kept asking if it was ok if we waited whilst a colleague served someone else. Very, very good and I told them.

    Should you ever have the pleasure to meet me Fran you will discover that I am the most polite and considerate old man you are ever likely to meet. You will also discover that I never tell the truth.
