Here we go again, blaming the public school system because you're lacking in the ability to learn. Is anything in life ever your own fault, or do you just have the ready made excuses in your back pocket?

Don`t wait for employers to put out want ads. Start dropping off resumes and cover letter that states why you think you would be a valuable asset to said company. Mention your blog and give samples of your posts from CP. I`m sure some employer would be quite impressed with your expert knowladge on customer service.

It's not my fault I am not smart. I learn by MEMORIZING. That is the *ONLY* way I learn. If I don't do it everyday or every week, it's GONE. I cannot imagine trying to do a statics problem that I did in 1997. I don't remember much of it a bell curve, that's about it. It's all gone.

No, they would think I would be mean to customers and that's just not true. I am VERY NICE. I am not mean. They would also think I would be doing this all day instead of work which is not true that I would be doing this all day. I do my work at work. I don't play.

Absolutely nothing about the way you conduct yourself online would suggest you are very nice or not mean.

Now fess up, you are an uber troll, right?

Springs1 ... I ... I love you. I know we've never met, but when I see your tenacity, your sheer determination to carry an argument far, far beyond anything that could be considered a rational point ... I get goosebumps.

Your absolute conviction in your righteousness is a potent aphrodisiac, your complete disregard for typographic conventions is wickedly arousing, and your relentless commitment to your cause does things to me I can't mention without using NSFW tags.

I want to watch you eat ranch dressing. I want to eat ranch dressing with you. I want to order ALL the ranch dressing there is and pour it into a swimming pool and then frolic with you like a 97 pound manatee in a goopy sun-warmed bath of ranch dressing.

Come away with me Springs1. We'll leave this workaday world behind and find ourselves a place where service people know their place, where they understand the meaning of the word SERVICE and we'll build a life there. A life of ranch dressing, random capitalization of WORDS, and commitment to IDEAS.

I love you.

Would you please, please, please care to elaborate on whose to blame for you not being smart? I'll give you a perfect example of why it is all on you. I went through high school not giving a crap and low and behold I had a C average. I went to college, actually applied myself and hey now I'm an A- student. It sounds to me like again because it wasn't done specifically for you, and tailored to ensure you succeed and screw everyone else, that its someone elses fault.

They should have a courier service if that's what they want. They neglected to mention that part. You don't know if a customer has a pit bull, risking getting into accidents, someone can pull a gun on you or rape you. She told me before I declined the interview about the 150 people.
Rape jokes are NEVER FUNNY!

There have been times when I studied for hours and hours when I tried nursing school, still at times got a bad grade. They wanted the "BEST" answer even if the other answer was right, understand?

When I study, I remember it for the test, that's it. It's gone if I don't see the material again. That's how my memory works. I have a BAD short term memory. I had to ask again if I didn't write an order down for just ONE person "Did you say cheese" for example.

Okay we're approaching 1000 posts and it hasn't been done yet so I'm just gonna do it.

I swore I'd never be this guy, but sometimes you have to do things you don't want to.

Sprints1....you're basically Hitler

I wonder if perhaps all these incorrect orders are actually a case of you just not remembering what you actually ordered.
