Happy? I think not. Just read where my old gym teacher (Miss Batikis) has passed away. Good teacher.

Have a doable Monday Irregulars. It is supposed to be 80 today but back into the 50's by the weekend.

OKIE, She was really something. A little firecracker, so to speak. I remember seeing her at Mitchell all the time. Those were the day's.

Happy, indeed.

it took me this long to get into our clubhouse, geesh, I was getting a complex! So glad I was finally able to get in!

It wasn't the best Monday, but it was far from the worst, guess that made it decently good! Back to being a work widow, and I've finally caught up and got the house clean, and it is going to stay that way, I can't wait to enjoy that part!!The weekend flew on by, trying to get the hubby packed up and out, and helping look after the neighbors' dog while he was gone for the weekend, I felt like I was chasing my tail. Now I'm happily sitting on it!

Is it just me or is this rude? I renewed a prescription via email at a local Walgreen's. When I got there, a clerk said the auto-reply for my prescription was for tomorrow, March 15, but if I wanted to wait a few minutes, she could fill it. Fine, I said and I sat down. After about 10-15 minutes, a clerk at the counter says to me, "Sir, your prescription is ready." Then she walked away. I went up to the counter and stood there and stood there. She didn't come back. So I went and sat down again. A new person arrived and waited at the counter After a couple of minutes, she got some help. So I went back up to the counter. After the new person was taken care of, they got my prescription. I said, "I think it's pretty rude to tell a customer their prescription is ready, and then walk away. It felt like a spit in the face." I got a flurry of "I'm sorrys," but I said, "You don't have to apologize, but the clerk who abandoned me should." Then I left.

Was that rude of her or not?

Another thing. Who taught Charlie Daylight Saving Time? He shouldn't be begging for his dinner for another half hour, but he's been meowing and thumping his tail for an hour.

Orbs, Is that a amazing or what? Winnie did the same thing to me yesterday. I sat here, and thought, HOW In hell does she know the time changed?

OKIE said...

Elmo doesn't care if it's 4 am, if he wants food you'd better get it.

Orbs I don't think you were rude at all. It was obviously a shift change but she should have completed the project.

Last Monday when I got into my car at 5 an insured pulled in next to me. Rude would have been me blowing him off which I wouldn't do.

That being said, if it was Walgreens I have noticed a high turn overdown here. There are 3 people who've been there à while, the rest new. The pharmacy has the most turn overs. Makes you wonder.

It was Walgreens. I have only one prescription there. The rest are out of an Aurora pharmacy that I love. It's on the far north side. There are pharmacies all over where I live, but I go back to that Aurora because they're great people and go the extra mile for you.
