    Hmmmm....

    Doc, is it morally right to be picking on the McDonalds counter help?

    Maybe it would go over better to have regional get-to-gethers.

    Probably true. We're all spawled at all over the country that I think an actual creditnet conference would be inconvenient for someone several hours (days) away. But, to meet everyone would be nice.

    doc u r a complete riot, this parody is in tune with the girl asking our fellow creditnetter to do her a favor and fill out an app for credit at the jewelry counter......too funny....I love this board...hehe...even more funny some didnt seem to catch that and took u literally lol....well if im wrong i extend appologies in advance....hehe




    Peace & Love


    Today I was in one of the malls and chanced to browse for a wedding band in one of the jewelry stores (I swear they're more numerous in the malls than 7-Elevens are on the street corners!!)

    Well, I didn't see anything that struck my fancy, but I graciously accepted the saleslady's business card.

    Then she says sugary-sweetly, "why don't you do me a favor and apply for our store card."

    The most unappreciative look must have come over my face, because she looked back at me so puzzled.

    "Do YOU a favor????" I asked, incredulously. And before my southern upbringing could kick in and "hush my mouth", I heard myself say something like...

    "So I'm supposed to take a 5 point hit just for the inquiry you'd make, then another 10-20 point hit for 6 months if I accepted your store card JUST SO I CAN DO YOU A FAVOR? Lady, explain to me when you and I got to be bossom buddies?"

    Turned on my heels and out into the mall I went without so much as a "Bob's your Uncle".

    Just think, a year ago, I might just have been stupid enough not to realize how damaging it is to casually do that "do me a favor store card" thing.

    ...and I owe it all to you guys!

    Hope

    LOL, informed, well so long as everybody understands that satire isn't the same thing as an attack... After reflecting upon Hope's posting for a day or two, I began thinking what it would be like to adopt that approach in other areas of my life. How about telemarketers, for instance? "You're asking me for a moment of my time? We only have a limited amount of time to live, for God's sake, and you're asking me for a moment of my time?" :D

    Anyway, in case anyone interpreted this bizarre posting to be a major slam on Hope, please know that didn't reflect my intention at all. This posting was just a nice example of the "association train" leaving the station without looking back. I suppose you don't have to wonder anymore how I became interested in psychology. :)
