Where Courtesy is Contagious |
Nordstrom picked this tagline to pump up employees heading to the sales floor: "Through these doors walk the most courteous people in the world!" However, I bet it was a second-place choice, after Kenmore snatched up "Where Courtesy is Contagious." Courteous, yes. Free to say whatever you want? No. The thought police may soon come after me for saying this, but I heard a rumour about a girl who posted myspace pictures of herself in lingerie purchased with her employee discount, and which store she worked at. She was fired. The moral is: don't bring your work home with you. Alternately: don't bring that JCPenney attitude into Nordy's! We are class all the way.
I don't even think these are pumpkins. But, they are organic and uber-local, whisked right out of the garden to add autumnal flair to the porch. Halloween snuck right by, and now we're faced with the prospect of eating the candy not taken by all... both... of the trick-or-treaters. I'm searching for side gigs in babysitting or preschooling to counterbalance the constastress coffee job, but at least I've only sold my soul seasonally. And from there, off to Wisconsin to see the fam in January, followed by a scary exam that I haven't yet decided to take, followed by an escape to Cambodia!! (Seeking orphans, predictably enough.) |

So wrong it's right. And then wrong. And then wrong again... welcome to the inaka. |

About Me: “No man, not even a doctor, ever gives any other definition of what a nurse should be than this - 'devoted and obedient'. This definition would do just as well for a porter. It might even do for a horse. It would not do for a policeman.” (Florence Nightingale)
