One local restaurant is famous for pies. The other day, before heading to my friend’s house for dinner, I stopped by to pick up a pie.
“I would like to buy a banana cream pie,” I said to a young girl who stood behind the counter.
She turned to her college. “Do you see a banana cream pie? I don’t see any,” she said. She didn’t bother to check the shelf.
I pointed to a banana cream pie on the shelf to her. She grabbed it, placed it in a box, and handed it to me. All this time, she, somehow, managed not having any eye contact with me.
Right away, I noticed a big chunk of cream on one side of the box.
“Would you please wipe the cream off? I don’t want get my car seat dirty,” I said.
She took a piece of paper. While continuing chatting with her college, she quickly went through a wiping motion, and then handed the pie back to me.
Most of the cream was still on the box. Just as I was about to ask her to clean it again, she walked away.
“Thank you,” I said loudly to her back, shaking my head.
On my way out, I “accidentally” smudged the cream on their shining glass door.

I am going to switch to a new PC soon. Let’s hope that everything will go smoothly and I won’t miss a post 😉
Thank you for visiting my blog.

Thank you, Julie. If it’s still there, it means they don’t clean their door. In that case, I definitely don’t want to go there again. Ha.
I don’t like to switch to new PC, because I don’t like to reinstall all the apps. The new PC had been here for 3 or 4 weeks, and I am getting embarrassed to keep putting it off. 😉
Have a wonderful day.

Thank you, Bill. But this is Minnesota Nice state! 😉
Seriously, I think this is the second time I had this kind of experience. Second time in 40 years — that’s not too bad. I mean… I had had some bad services, but I sensed that the person preferred not serving me. Hope she will change… for her own sake.
Have a wonderful evening.

Thanks, Roberta. I don’t get this kind of experience often. Most people are very nice to me. For some reason, as soon as I walked into the restaurant, I had a feeling that she had no respect for me. Because I am Chinese? I don’t know. There is no way for me to prove it. I hope she will change later. For her sake, that is.
Have a wonderful evening.

Thanks, Amy. I hope she would be the one to clean the door, too 😉 Maybe I should write that on the door… Ha.
Wow, you are the first person I Know who is using Lenovo. I got a simple Dell 😉
(On a different subject… the owner of the restaurant will donate the gift card to their local police department for me. I am so happy.)
Have a wonderful evening.
