Spinning the carousel

Well, i wasted 10 minutes reading about your loss of one. I'm kidding of course, as it was all entertaining. When im in a similar situation, i look out the window and see the clouds going by and thank, whoever's in charge, that i don't have to work in the place and put up with curmudgeons and know it alls, like me.

I googled and they rotate them that way for a reason. It’s like a pto, they can suck a customer in and kill them!

I sure miss the old hardware store we used to have where you had a 'account' and it didnt take them long to get to know you. Usually just running in to pick up one item, all I had to do was show it to the cashier and when she said ok, got it, I was on the way. Nothing signed or rang up, not much wait, just a quick smile and never got a incorrect bill. Which the bill came in the mail at the same time every month. One bill I always ENJOYED paying.

Now I'm wondering which TBN member commented on her rant.

Me too! I'll always remember one vacation my wife and I took to Danville, Vermont. There was this old three story hardware store, the kind with squeaky wood floors.
It was like going back in time. The owner hands me a paper sack and a pencil, said just write price on outside of bag.
After 3 floors I had filled the bag. He looks down all the numbers and gave price. Since everything ended in 9 ($.49, $5.99) it was fast. Added up rounded, subtracting quantity.
We started talking about horses...so he hands us a key "check out my barn next door", like a museum of wagons, sleighs, etc.
Talk about trusting!

I like number 15

15. Don't be so rude and condescending
Often, your unnecessary disrespect, or need to belittle the cashier can subconsciously (or consciously) make them slow down. If you treat them civilly, like a human being, they're more likely to move quickly. When their mind is not occupied by the negative feelings you cause, they can focus. And when they aren't feeling vindictive because you were rude, they won't intentionally move slowly.

We need more like that.

Wonder what would happen if someone stuck a one way bearing on the carousel shaft. Probably shut the whole works down.
