Dear So and So

Wait -- you did your own avatar, Mimi? From a painting?

I am SERIOUSLY impressed. You are an artist. Wow!

Yes, the USPS should, maybe would, buy it. And it could indeed be a poster, maybe even sold on TE. Ready for a new career?! :D :D :D

Dear whoever is in charge of hard decisions--

Please give me some guidance as to whether my dear sweet Remy is still enjoying life, or if he's so miserable right now that he'd welcome some peace. It's so hard to know whether he's happy or not, and I don't feel qualified to make life or death decisions.

((((((((diving & remy)))))))) that is so hard. Praying for guidance for you and comfort for Remy.

D-biker -- We had to make that very difficult decision last year. When it's time, Remy will let you know.

I've had to do it 3 times in the last 7 years...:( and every time...we all knew when it was time.

Dear Physical Therapy $h!+heads:

Thanks for the lack of sand and salt on your parking lot. It was truly a blast skating across it with leg braces and a walker. I can't remember when I've been that scared.

I hope the Easter bunny poops in your baskets.


disgruntled patient:mad:

Oooooooo. That is seriously bad form for a PT office. I'm embarrassed that someone in my profession would be so insensitive.:o

Dear Walmart,

You know why people hate you? You make it too easy!! How dare you think it is appropriate to take up to 30 days to credit my account for a return? No other retail store I have dealt with has taken that long. To add insult to the whole situation your incompetent manager gave me the phone number to a pornagraphic hotline instead of your district office!! I will spend more to stay as far away from your company as possible.

-A few bucks isn't worth your BS!

hey AM,

I hope you rip into the district manager and if need be go above him/her. What a bunch of dorks

I'd file a sexual harrassment complaint. Probably that wasn't technically illegal, but just the publicity would take them down quite a bit among their regular customers.

I think it likely WAS illegal, although for that you'd probably have to be able to prove intent. But even if the guy claims it was simply a mistake, unless it's just a single digit off the actual number, it's an enormous potential embarrassment to him and the whole company that he even KNEW that number. Whop him with a harrasment suit. I bet he settles big time and fast!

As much as I don't want anyone to think that I am on the side of Walmart, my husband gave his mother his office's 1-800 line and somehow the numbers were transposed and SHE called a porn line! It was embarrassing and hilarious at the same time.

To put the Walmart drama to rest... I still don't like them but I got my refund today (3 business days) and DH gently pointed out I transposed the number. Still the manager was quite rude, seemed to not care and did not tell me important information my husband was able to get by calling back. Left quite a bad taste in my mouth and I think I will continue shop elsewhere.

OK. The phone thing can be put to rest. But Walmart is still on Norway's ethics-board-for-the-petroleum-fund do-not-invest list. This is because of some of their suppliers using child labor and Walmart not doing anything about that. A major bank here just yesterday pulled their money out of Walmart. The story hit the media that they had some of one mutual fund, touted as a sound investment for parents to make for their kids, invested in ethics board do-not-invest firms Walmart (child labor) and Honeywell (atom bomb parts). Customers kicked up a fuss and the bank pulled out of those companies.

Good heavens, Wal-Mart has so many reasons for me not to darken their doors. Yes, I can get things cheaply there. Sometimes there are truly rotten reasons for things to be cheap.

WHen students hear describe the things they have to go to to try to keep their jobs (no, you don't have any health benefits - but you'd better fork over the bucks to have one tell you you've got the flu if you're going to miss work, just for starters)...

Same letter as before... Dear you... what's keeping you from fishing or cutting bait? I just want to know what it *is.* Then I could decide whether to try to make it happen. Was that really nice Christmas gift trying to be a guilt offering, or wanting to take things further? C'mon, next time you're going to a concert, you've got my phone number... you *know* I won't back you into a corner...
