It might be urban legend, it might not, but it does show that one cannot be too quick to judge......which brings me back to my original point....... <span class="e_sad" title=":-("><span class="e__">:-(</span> </span></p><p class="edit_text">EDITED: 1 Nov 2006 by C_BURKE</p> <hr /><a name="a5237_23"></a><p><b>From: gt350ed</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5237.23">#23</a>]<br /> 1 Nov 2006<br /><b>To: jeanettebrewer (JEANETTEBREWER2)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5237.17">#17</a>] 2 Nov 2006</p> Sounds like Texas has adopted the "Chicago" method.......<br /> <br /> Vote "early", and vote often! <span class="e_devil" title="(devil)"><span class="e__">(devil)</span> </span> <hr /><a name="a5237_24"></a><p><b>From: Harvey only (HARVEY-ONLY)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5237.24">#24</a>]<br /> 1 Nov 2006<br /><b>To: ALL</b></p> Just to add to the original post about inefficiency.<br /> <br /> Near the begining of the year my power went off. To make a long story short, my power bill was current but they said we owed over $1600 for gas service. It took over three days to get it back on. It seems that the person who turned it back on is the only one at Peco that was aware that my entire <u>area</u> does not have gas service.<br /> <br /> No service available but they did something that showed us as not paying the gas bill so they shut the electricity.<br /> <br /> Hard to run a laser with no power. <hr /><a name="a5237_25"></a><p><b>From: Peter</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5237.25">#25</a>]<br /> 1 Nov 2006<br /><b>To: Dee (DEENA-ONLY)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5237.14">#14</a>] 1 Nov 2006</p> <p>McDonalds</p> <p> <span class="e_smile" title=":-)"><span class="e__">:-)</span> </span></p> <hr /><a name="a5237_26"></a><p><b>From: logojohn</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5237.26">#26</a>]<br /> 1 Nov 2006<br /><b>To: jeanettebrewer (JEANETTEBREWER2)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5237.17">#17</a>] 2 Nov 2006</p> <div class="quotetext" id="quote"><b>quote: </b></div><div class="quote">Someone at Hot Topic has trained their staff very well.</div><br /> <br /> That doesn't surprise me. In a former life <span class="e_wink" title=";-)"><span class="e__">;-)</span> </span>I traveled around working in many chain stores after business hours. While working with an ear open I got to be a fly on the wall on employee meetings and a lot more.<br /> <br /> The bigger chains were very demanding of even part time high school employees and had very specific goals and tracking of performance down to the penny and minute.<br /> <br /> For what they get paid I was amazed at what they expect and get from their help. <hr /><a name="a5237_27"></a><p><b>From: Dee (DEENA-ONLY)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5237.27">#27</a>]<br /> 1 Nov 2006<br /><b>To: Stunt Engraver (DGL)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5237.18">#18</a>] 1 Nov 2006</p> <p>Jeanette & David,<br /> Harv & I attended a very traditional wedding on Sunday. The bride, the daughter of an old friend, is today a high school English teacher. Ten years ago she was a fifteen year old yuk who wore only torn black and metal, had green hair, ran away at whim and was a general pain in the rear. What happened? She grew up.</p> <p>Dee</p> <p>BTW She paid for all those ugly clothes by being an assistant manager at a store in the mall.</p><p class="edit_text">EDITED: 1 Nov 2006 by DEENA-ONLY</p> <hr /><p align="center">Show messages:  <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5237.1">1</a>  <a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=5237.2">2-21</a>  22-27</p> <h4><a href="lthread_list.php?webtag=EE">Back to thread list</a> | <a href="llogout.php?webtag=EE">Login</a></h4> <h6>© 2024 <a href="http://www.beehiveforum.net/" target="_blank">Project Beehive Forum</a></h6> </body>
