Actually, I'm rather enjoying them. I can recite them and it's so nice
to be thanked for something. It's so long since anyone thanked me for
anything it's making up for it. Remember when you used to go to stores
and bought something and the shop assistant would count the change into
your hand and thank you for coming in? Nowadays they sullenly slap a
handful of coins into your hand and glare at you until you skulk away.
Last week, I bought a drink for $1.80 and a newspaper for $1 and the
teenaged shop assistant used the cash register to add them up!! She
walked 5 steps to the cash register, added the two items, then came back
to tell me it was $2.80. I laughed out loud and she looked puzzled. I
said to her "YOu needed the machine to add those two things
together???????" and she went bright red, looked very embarassed and said
"Yes, it was silly wasn't it"
Actually, I think she didn't need the machine, it was just a habit. She
always used the machine to add up and this was no different.
But it amused me and my family for the rest of the day.
There, Peter, see how useful those messages are??
But I do wish they'd stop. But I dont want them to stop momentarily. I
want them to stop permanently
