I moved back in with my parents so that I could go back to school and not have to worry about making ends meet. Getting laid in the room next to your parents for the mother ****ing loss. Especially when it gets serious and you forget that other people are in the house so you really start going at it.. then right as you're finishing up it dawns on you that you just let everyone in the house know what you were doing.

I have a positive customer service story, actually from earlier tonight...
I went to Sunoco at about 12am to fill the rents Jeep. Cost just under $60 for just about the full tank
I asked the guy if he was going to raise the price in the next 5 minutes. He said they call at 12:30am with the price adjustments- could go up or down. So I went home, switched rides, headed over, waited 5-10 minutes, chatted with the guy about whatever- hockey, working at a gas station- he even offered me tea or coffee!.. So anyways, They called, prices up... so he let me fill up at the "cheaper price" $1.17
I told him it was nice to receive good customer service, 'cause there's another guy that works there (again, always go to the same place) who I commented wasn't too chatty, and the clerk I talked to said "Ya, he's an angry guy"

Anyways, totally forgot about this LOL
But it was nice to just chat with someone and them not be pissed 'cause I was waiting to see if the price got cheaper

Somewhere in the fine print of the pizza giveaway is a disclaimer, I'm sure, limiting the redeemer of the prize to stocks on hand.

Lighten up and take the free slices of cheese next time. Your body won't miss the extra fat that the pepperoni would have added, and you won't waste your time, the most valuable commodity ever...

P.S. It is always wise to treat those preparing your food as nicely as you can. Especially when you can't see them all of the time.
Yeah.. its free.. but still.. They told her that she would be given 2 slices of pepperoni if she waited 20 minuttes.. then after 20 minuttes she was not given what she waited for. Thats uncalled for. If someone messes up, I always apologize,, but if its the customer's fault.. I always tell them that they messed up and they shouldnt be compensated. I know thats not the situation.. but an hour for pizza is ridiculous.. I think after 1/2 hr I would have just left and bought something.. take the cheese and run.

Speaking of customer service, I valeted tonight and was as always top notch and on my best behavior with a signature smile. And NO ONE tipped me. For the event, we ended up making $.50 cents each, and the worst part is, we valeted for a billionaire, Mitchell Rales. I brought up a brand new porsche carrera 4s to this lady, who I was being extremely nice to, who barely knew how to drive stick (got really jerky b/c of poor clutch timing) and was ugly as sin, and she gave me the bitchiest look and didn't even tip me. F**king whore.

I'm sorry I hate people who don't tip especially when the service is good, they can go crash their bimmers into a ditch.

You can't complain if the people aren't aware they should be tipping you. My guess is they assume you make enough that tips are unneeded.
