Pentaghastly posted:Some old rear end white lady seriously came up to us during our shift meeting, said "I have just had the most ridiculous experience in this store. All I wanted was 4 vanilla bean scones and you were out, its absurd that you would be out of those" She's the poo reviewer at TA? That explains the attitude.

Duckman2008 posted:My favorite Drive Thru I have ever seen is Frozen Daiquiris in New Orleans. There are Daiquiri shops everywhere around New Orleans, which essentially is those frozen slushees you see at gas stations, but loaded with tons of booze. The legal ruling was that it's not an open container until someone puts the straw through the lid. The shop didn't serve you a drink while you were driving, they just gave you a closed vessel and a straw. What happens after that is on you!

Is there anything particular about Cintas paper towel and soap dispensers that is bad? A few years ago it seemed like every store restroom in the DC area got them and then within a couple of years they almost unanimously just went to a bottle of Dial on the sink and a roll of Brawny on top of the dispenser. I know they make their money from selling refills to stores who get the machines and may have simply jacked up the price.

EugeneJ posted:The batteries die and no one knows how to change them, or the keys get misplaced Yeah, batteries and keys are the bane of any powered restroom appliances, I didn’t know if these red Cintas things had anything weird like motors that are known to burn out or if it’s just a coincidence. Places that have other brands in the restroom seem to largely have them working.

Alkydere posted:Amazon switched to scanners fixed to our stations via their USB cables because they were tired of us shipping our hand scanners to customers. There’s a lot to be said for cords. At work awe have an inspection robot on the end of a cord that I refuse to upgrade to a radio controlled untethered unit because I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve retrieved it by pulling the tether. Haven’t lost one yet, and have spent $0 on batteries since it plugs right into the wall.

Pentaghastly posted:What’s the most grandparents anyone has ever had? Because I think I have a record holder in my store. Theoretically unlimited if all your grandparents have an Elizabeth Taylor kind of thing going on. More than a half dozen is getting implausible, since having just 8 would require 100% divorce and remarriage at that generation or a full complement of biological and adoptive family still living.

Inspector 34 posted:Including step grand parents I ended up with 10 total, maybe 11 but I can't remember if one of them ended up remarrying or not. Not that I was super close with all of them. I think I only met my stepdad's parents/step parents on a couple of occasions when I was around 12 years old. But they existed and that's a leg up on people making up fake deaths in the family I guess. Good point, I didn’t consider doubling from one’s parents remarrying.
