While working away today came across a site that really touched a nerve that I am sure most of us really share or you are really a very nice patient person, and good for you.

In line at any fast food chain, whether McDonald's or Subway, don't most of us know what is on the menu before getting there, or how about read it before you get in line if you are undecided. I do hate this, come on, don't you know what you want before you get up there, and what you want to know about the ingredients, seriously. Have they been under a rock or hit by one. Now we are talking about a sit down meal at somewhere with cloth napkins, I mean that is a total different experience and I don't have to hear the undecided the waitress or waiter has to deal with them. Or how about the long line at Tim Horton's and they don't know how they want their coffee, how can you not know what you take in your coffee, someone hit them with that rock I was talking about. Now the likelihood of actually getting your order right at a Tim Horton's would be surprising at least to me it would. Drive-thru's have staff that really can't be seen by the out front customers, because they are stupid! Love getting down the highway to have my steeped tea, two milk one sugar and guess what it is a hot chocolate. So why ask us what we want if they are gonna just give us whatever anyways. My sister is a firm believer of opening her coffee right at the window and tasting before she drives off, smart, but annoying for the person behind. You know it isn't going to be right and now it has to be re-made, oh and she won't pull away for them to do it either, kind of makes me laugh.

That is another thing at any fast food stomach pain restaurants, you order at the drive-thru and then they have you pay then pull over to the side to wait and take a billion other orders while you wait. Okay I didn't order anything extravagant, let's face it there isn't anything on the menu that is rocket science and most of it is just re-heated anyways, so why the wait. Must be something that people don't order much, oh no there goes my stomach.

Here is my last beef today. The grocery store is busy, we are all lined up at one till of a very tired looking teen, who appears frustrated and she has called for help, where the hell is the rest of the staff. The best place to witness this is WalMart at any given time of the day they never have enough staff at the check-outs. The staff on the floor aren't any help either, I think they just have people walking around with those stupid blue vests to make it look like they have staff. Or how about first thing in the morning and they are having their morning cheer, again there is one cash open and a line-up going into the electronic department. Oh which you can't pay for anything other than electronics in, you get to stand in that line if you want a movie and then go and stand in the other line for the other purchases. And we do it, but why do we do it. I don't know about you but time is money, yes I am retired and have all the time in the world, but I sure as hell don't want to wait in another stupid line to buy my over priced whatever and pay for a bag that is so frigging thin you could never re-use it for anything else.

Well I think I could go on and on with all of this and I better stop before I really get going. But doesn't it just irk you that we are letting this go on and on and on! But the question of the day would be, how do you or we change this. And please don't say government we all know that isn't going to happen, we are lambs at the slaughter when it comes to out government and the control we have over that, seriously. And if you think we can change the government and how it dictates to us then please go back to the top of today's blog and find that rock and please hit yourself in the head with it.

Okay my children, I am off for another day, I really again am not getting anything done, was suppose to be making a meatloaf for dinner, well my neighbor came over and after a few too many beer (yes I can type and drink beer can't you) I am not up to making meatloaf. Guess what we are having for dinner tomorrow?

Everyone enjoy the rest of the beautiful day it has turned out to be, be happy and love thy neighbor you never know when they aren't going to be there anymore.

love and hugs
