A new shopping experience
The setting: A cash register/checkout at a store I had never visited (until today). The conversation: Cashier: Did you find everything okay? Me: Yes, thank you for asking. Cashier: Do you know about our rewards program? Me: No, but I’ll … Continue reading
Saving the day
My day did not get off to a great start. To make a long story short, it will suffice to say that I experienced my first issue around 5 am, and by 9 am I found myself sitting in our … Continue reading
