go to the grocery store. place is PACKED. get my shopping done and get into line behind one of the FIVE lanes open :eyes: .
wait. wait. wait. wait.
FINALLY get up to the register. cashier says:
"Are you planning on paying with cash?"
Me: "No. Debit card."
Her: "I'm sorry all of our computer lines are down. We can only take cash or checks."
Me: "Your kidding! How long have they been down?"
Her: "Since about 3 o'clock this afternoon"
Me: "Do you THINK you could have put some SIGNS UP??"
Her: "We didn't think about that"
Me: "Do you REALIZE how crowded this store is right now?"
Her: "Do you want me to ring your items through and hold them while you go to the bank?" :eyes: (Nearest ATM is about 1/2 mile away and its rush hour (no there isn't one in the store)
Me: "No. I'm leaving. I suggest you put up some signs as a common courtesy to your customers though."
looks like we are having breakfast for dinner tonight
:argh: :grr: :argh:

| 6. I'll feed you and the Mrs. any day of the week |

Just drive 72 miles south and consider giving me some advance warning. That is if you desire a superior dinner. Otherwise it's finger foods.
