As my Mom said to me once when I was in my early 40's... enjoy sex while you can as it doesn't last forever.
My dad was making a joke about how I had the playboy channel. They both knew I was gay
 
When the jewelers that you've taken your wrist watch to for repairs for decades no longer has a watch repair division. Their guy has either retired or passed on; and, no one has been understudying him (or her) to take over. And, the watch is not even a high end, expensive state of the art Rolex that probably comes with it's own repair shop :rotflmao: It's an everyday, 50 year old Hamilton that replaced an even older Timex that I had when I was in high school, which no longer runs. :cry:

Well, here's your chance to learn a fun new skill: watch repair!

I talked with someone a few years ago about an old family clock she had. She commented she wished it worked....but there was that difficulty finding someone who could work on it.

I had phase when I was about 11 of being intrigued by mechanical clocks. I'm guessing I said something like: "Maybe I can be a clock repairman when I grow up!” And my father told me: forget it--there is no future in that!
 
I wonder if Vannie buys a 6 pack of Charmin before each stuffed cabbage night? :unsure:

shopping
 
Admittedly, it's been over 40 years since I last worked in any retail context; but, it's been my observation over the last several months (if not years) that cashiers, both retail and banking, no longer care whether their bills are all aligned in the same direction. When I was handling a cash till, all currency was supposed to be in it's appropriate section, oriented in the same direction and all bills either face up or face down. From right to left, one had $1, $5, $10, $20 and $50. $100 went under the cash tray; and checks (and paper coupons) went in the far lefthand slot. Has something changed. . .especially since now everyone is going plastic? :unsure:

I find many cashiers barely know how to take cash at all! And if the screen did not tell them the exact amount of change I doubt they could do it.

I can see that view, but I support the individual freedoms of all bills. For example, a couple of ones, face to face, but right side facing different directions, might be wanting to do 69 in the cash drawer. Who am I to say no?

:LOL:

A number of years back, I often bought single bottles of beer to try. Usually no problem, but sometimes the bar code on the bottle wasn't in the system, so the cashier would have manually enter a price based on the 6 pack price. One time, the cashier actually pulled out a calculator in order to do the higher math required to figure out what one bottle from a 6 pack priced at $6 might run.
 
I remember when you had to verbally call out the price of the purched item as you rang it up on the register; and, counted the change back to the customer. "Your total is $ 14.78, you gave me a $ 20, so 79, 80, 90 and $1 makes 15 plus $5 makes $20." :rotflmao:

And meanwhile, customers of that era had the skills to know they were getting the right change.
