    I know it's been a long while since I've posted, my deployment schedule has kept me fairly busy, but seeing another post reminded me of the following.

    It's less "suck" and more of a "shake my head".

    Back when I worked at the Greyhound Station in Tacoma, a bus pulled in for a stop heading onward to Seattle. 15 minute stop, tops. I make the announcements as needed, and make the "Final boarding call" announcement. Sure enough, no sooner does the bus pull away than a guy bursts through the front door, loudly demanding if that was his bus. When I inform him it was, I get the classic:

    "Well according to my watch, I still have two minutes!!"

    He didn't care for my answer that would be great if we actually ran according to his watch.
    Waiter? ... Waiter?
    Curses! When will I ever remember- Order dessert first and THEN kill everyone in the restauraunt.

    I love that....not so much. We've had people leave messages on our night voicemail like that. The message is tagged 6:03 PM and they leave a voicemail like this: "According to MY watch, it's 5:58! Why are you closed!!!"

    My favorite was the customer who said that because she was in an earlier time zone to the west of us, our deadlines should be flexible to allow for that. Sorry lady...doesn't work that way.
    When you start at zero, everything's progress.
