I am glad you stuck it to him. Good girl. So what colours are you going to have in your home. I love to decorate. And especially a brand new home. wow. Good luck sweetie and congratulations for standing up to the jack ass.
What a hypocrite, he'll take your money but won't acknowlege you on the street. I despise creeps like that. Yes I would gladly shop else where rather then add any of my money to his business.
Love Orangefatcat.
the place turned into bloody Jehovah-ville. 6 of ém came to visit the place, chitter-chatter among themselves, nicely ignoring me
How much do you wanna bet they were all out in Seeeeerrrrrrvice and they were counting this visit as "time"...............what a crew. You know what you COULD do that would really piss him off? Buy a ton of stuff from his store (make sure it's all returnable) and then return it. Heh-heh-heh-heh..........I used to work in Retail and I know it pisses them off.
((((Viv)))) Good luck with your move !!! Hope you enjoy your new digs !!!
One thing that I'm happy about is how much my looks have changed. I've fattened up a little, I grew my hair long, shaved off the moustache, wear glasses, and have a nice cross dangling from my ear.LOL Nos- you forgot the bow in your hair !!!
Ohhhh, GIRL!!!!
I am so proud of you and how you handled this!
They can be SO unnerving, huh?
hugs to Vivamus,

A textbook case of good 'ole FOLLOW THE MONEY, baby
I wonder if the local KH got a good deal on curtains because this Dub owns the curtain shop, then again do your KH's over there have windows or not? This seems like a strange businees for a dub to own. Everyone near my area here in the states owned floor stores, something they started part-time so they could pioneer. However, for the most part, the business quickly becomes full time because you simply can't operate a profitable business by only being open three days a week. I myself had the joy of working for one of my fellow dubs at his floor store part-time so I could pioneer. I got so raped because I only got paid $8 an hour for very hard manual labor that involved installing carpet and whatever odd job we could find. I knew I was getting raped at the time, but I thought it was ok since I was pioneering. Man, was I wrong.
At least I know the difference between a good and bad job now. I still remember the expression on the brother's face when I told him that I was quitting his slave job and at the same time I was quitting pioneering. He tried to act as if he was more upset that I was quitting pioneering than quitting his pathetic job. Yeah right, he was sad because he had to once again look for cheap labor.
hey Viv.. what a surprise huh? wow.. You handled yourself very well. Better I think than I would have. Way to go girl!
At any rate.. I will be you will enjoy your new place once you are all settled.. Have fun setting it up!!
G'day Viv,
So what locality did you decide on in the end?
Email us your addy before we come over in a few months.
Good luck with the move.
Cheers, Ozzie
LOL! The same thing happened to me back in November. Our car insurance lapsed because we weren't making enough to be able to afford the payments, so we ended up having to use one of those "high risk" insurance places. Well, the lady was real nice-she even let me bring in the money that I was short on the next week, just so my policy wouldn't lapse. Well, I had class, so my daughter volunteered to make the payment for me, and came home laughing. She said "Mom, did you happen to notice the Bible stories book and the Great Teacher book that your insurance lady has displayed in her offfice?" I actually hadn't-how the heck did I miss those, lol. I wonder if she would've trusted an "apostate" to bring her the money if she'd have known?:)
About two weeks ago we get a call from a sister trying to sell us vitamins for our 4 month old baby. It really pissed us off. Our money is good enough to take, but we are not good enough to even say hi too. Then two days ago another dub asks my wife if I would be wiiling to put in a good recomendation for this person. These people are just plain pathetic.
