Without heating, there is no way to dry the cloth diapers they have in the cold this winter. Egads. <br /><br />It is only on the ground and running with real people living real problems that we realise what those problems and needs are. <br /><br />I wish you luck with this project.

It probably leaves you feeling judgmental, deprived, neglected, impatient, maybe even upset and of course, very thirsty. <BR/><BR/>Maybe the waiter's mom just died. Maybe the waiter wasn't told it was important to fill glasses regularly and this is normal in this particular establishment (ostensibly because they want you to spend more on paid beverages). Maybe said waiter couldn't get to a tap and it was out of his hands. <BR/><BR/>The idea I'm trying to push is compassion and putting yourself in another person's shoes. Maybe you were a waitress before and did a much better job, but not everyone is given the same set of circumstances to work with and not everyone achieves the same level of perfection. By putting your standards on to someone else, instead of accepting things as they are, you're setting yourself up for disappointment. And no one, most importantly you, gains anything positive from that.K Bron Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15568810726327536470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3953295333621698135.post-71305911816919055402008-06-27T20:05:00.000-04:002008-06-27T20:05:00.000-04:00"This goes for the waiter who just filled your wat..."<I>This goes for the waiter who just filled your water glass, even though he is "just doing his job" and it took him 15 minutes to notice your glass was empty.</I>"<BR/><BR/>Really? Because, to me, that means that they're actually <B>NOT</B> doing their job. Which means that they do not deserve a thank you.misskitty79https://www.blogger.com/profile/12135126890693496971noreply@blogger.com
