You are there to serve me, and I pay you for that service. This reminds me of a recent "This American Life" documentary (Ira Glass, NPR) about mean people, or more specifically, mean girls. One of the "case studies" (not very official as it involved 2 waitresses) was to determine if female servers got better tips if they were extremely attentive and efficient or if they recieved better tips when they ignored or were mean to the customer. The results seemed to favor the later. I, at least, thought this interesting enough to share :) LB _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
