Ok
On the Thread topic.

There was this really tough customer in the city where I grew up. He would hold up major orders and squabble about $.02 on a product.

I used to deliver to his store, and anyone who knows me, knows I am a polite and gracious vendor, and also am able to take a lot of crap from customers without getting upset..That was part of the job and I was good at it turning things back around without giving away the store.

One day this store owner came out with a baseball bat while I was delivering and threatened me. Well so what. I just asked what was wrong and we settled it. The guy a retired main buyer for the major supermarket chain and had aquiered quite a lot of pull and an attitude to boot over the years, so I knew he was just throwing his weight. Probably just playing with my head.

One day months later when I had no money I walked to his store and said, "Mr. So-n-So, I wonder if you would extend me some credit because I have a problem and I don't get paid till Friday. Its my wife you see. If you could just extend me credit on this..
$3.99 bottle of Midol.."

He smiled and handed it over.. Guess he had a wife too..

My goodness Pep,

I think you need to go back to work as much as I do. laugh

You"re not ready to retire! You still have way too much to offer to those who need it.

And until Mel is ready to pick up and drink a coke, she has become blidsided. laugh

I can't tell you how beatiful Switzerland was. Your eyes have to drink it all in.

This world isn't cruel, people are. God Bless

Best wishes,
Jerry
