Laziness:

I go to the bank and tell the teller that I need $50 in one dollar coins.

Her: We don't have any.
Me: You don't have any in the vault
Her: No
Me: What do you do when people bring them in?
Her: Well, we keep them but we don't have any.

Then, on a whim, before I leave I asked one of the "suits" where I might find these coins. He goes to the vault and comes back with 50 of them for me.

Lazy hag.


Greed:

I go to Papadeaux for lunch and order a greek salad a 1/2 dozen shrimp to go. These are usually $5.99 each but for some reason I was billed $6.60 each.

Me: Um, aren't these $5.99 each
Him: Yes, for dine in.
Me: Why is it more for take out?
Him: Because the packaging and the utelsils.
Me: Well, if I done in you have to have a waiter baby sit me for an hour and you might still have to give me a to-go box.
Him: Let me adjust your bill.

WTF?

I am happily eating my salad and hoping that there is no spit in it...

Don't underestimate how much of our daily frustrations like this are due to STUPIDITY. For example, the teller may just have been a moron and the restaurant may not have thought through their pricing policy.

Master, thank you for your wise words.

Did you get silver dollars or Susan B.'s?

What I hate is when they try to rape for me a buck because I'm an adult eating off the kid's menu.

No idea... let me check...

combo of silver susan b's and the gold indian dollars.

Hi Chewy. I hate that, too.

Laziness is getting 1 dollar coins instead of using 4 quarters.

Laziness is eating out instead of fixing your own dang meal.

I hate that they charge more to dry clean my shirts than my husband's.

Bite me

I need one dollar coins for a fundraiser game

I don't need to justify buying lunch when I work full time and do volunteer work.

That's a scan, too, Tanya. They claim it is the size but they don't charge any more for boys shirts. Also, if a shirt has ANY lycra they insist on dry cleaning it.

Laziness is not washing your own clothes that don't REQUIRE dry cleaning.

I bet they hate it when you try to rape them by taking advantage of their *kind gesture* to save parents some bucks when they take their kids out to eat. How cheap are you that you consent to sacrifice a chicken wing to pay a couple dollars less. Please. You are an adult, eat from the adult menu. If the helping is too big, ORDER SOMETHING ELSE. Baby.

:P

Damn, you people must be on really tight budgets if you launder 100% of your clothing that does not require dry cleaning. I'm not lazy... I have a full, active life and I can afford to pay the dry cleaner so that my time can be better spent on other things. Sheesh.

Yankee, down girl. In some restaurants their servings of EVERYTHING are too big.

How much time does it take to wash your clothes?

Sheesh, some of you really pay a lot of money for something that really doesn't take that much extra time to do on your own.

Apparently you know this before going there. Go somewhere else.

I never claimed I wasn't lazy. I hate ironing and I am not going to do it. It is worth it to me to have someone else do it. I just wish my linen shirts were the same price as my husband's linen shirts.

If I can pay someone to do a job I detest, I will do it. I don't change my own oil either.

And I buy my cheese already grated!

All my clothes are "wrinkle free".

"wrinkle free" clothes that aren't ironed look to sloppy for me to wear to work.

That would mean I couldn't have linen. And I like linen. So I pay for them to iron it.

If you get them out of the dryer right when it finishes and hang them up, they are perfect.

no they aren't.

I have no qualms about admitting my laziness. I don't like ironing and they will do it for me.

I just think our shirts should be the same price.

Combat Wombat -
What bank was that, so I'll be sure not to use them when we move back to College Station in December.

what i hate is when people throw around the word "rape" like it's fun to use.

please know that for some people, that word really conjures up some bad memories and images. it is quite possibly my least favorite word in the world.
