    Are retail and restaurant workers getting ruder?

    I actually am not sure it’s always a situation of people being burned out or unhappy. Maybe sometimes. But It seems also due to ignorance— like they don’t even think being friendly and customer-oriented is something they should do.

     

    i am not also looking for anyone to fawn over me. Just to say hello and recognize my basic existence. 
     

    another example— I was at the dollar store and me and another lady were standing in line. The cashier saw us, but kept us waiting for like 5 minutes while she was putting stuff away on a shelf.
     

    she then came over, and I was like, “hey, how’s it going.” No response. She rang me up.  Then I said at the end, “thanks.” And no response.  
     

    something almost identical happened to

    me at Panera bread then to the other day. 
     

    isn’t that weird? 

    I bet the owner would have been right on it.  How about staff one stocking & one checking put.  Of course prices would rise because ownership has to maintain their lifestyle.

    I think everybody is just fed up, burned out, and miserable with our society these days.  If I have a sh***y experience with a person like that it usually doesn't bother me, my feelings are more along the lines of "Hey I get it" 

    Exactly! If you get bothered by it then you're the entitled one.

    Happiness comes from within. The kinder we treat each other, the easier the bs will be to deal with. Most people are too wrapped up in their own world to realize that. We all need to be a little more understanding and forgiving 

    Hey Mr.Sunshine... Where has that attitude got the BillsMafia?  All the niceness they do gets boopkiss.  You'd think that we'd have at least ONE SuperBowl by now... But for all the peace, love, & understanding on Mark Andrews' dropped balls, we get paid back with scorn and Ref screw jobs and our own dropped balls.

     

    Nice guys finish last.😠

     

    Anyone else feel the Bills would have given the Eagles a much better game?

    Yes

     

    Bills have only lost 2 by more than 6 points in the last ~50 games.  You know how many years that is.  And one game was Cincy playoff.

     

    Ok... 3, forgot the 1st KC AFCCG under Josh... But not a blowout.

     

    Only blowout was this past season against Ravens.

     

    Bills definitely would have been fighting the Eagles to end.

     

    The League's loss.  Bills always hang!

     

    Oh well.

    If last year is any indication, then yes, they would have. Didn't the Bills lose at Philly in OT. That was a game they easily could have won.

    The Bills got screwed in that game too on the Brown sketchy call!

    He was my least favorite coach when here, but seemed like a nice person who genuinely cared for his players, He also had some success as a coordinator and player.

     

    RIP Dick Jauron, and my condolences to his family.

    I believe & got his first coaching assistant job under Hank Bullough here in BFLo...

    Super Bowl ticket prices cratering.

    It's probably because the POTUS will be in town and there's gonna be restricted airspace over NOLA... It will be shut down.  If people can't get into town, tix prices will drop.

     

    BigWigs with private Jets, forget about it.

     

    I guess they can drive in:

    Houston is 5 hours

    Mobile 3.

    Baton Rouge 1... But NOT sure what the restrictions will be there.

    Superbowl Boycott

    When they vowed to improve, it was a flat-out lie. They wanted L.A. in the SB. The NFL has an obscene infatuation with the L.A. market. It's now clear to me that they're continuing to hand-pick teams. 

    Do you think if Lions didn't get bounced and made it... The calls in Chiefs game would have favored Bills?

     

    MAYBE... Both championship games should be played at the same to kind put the brakes on these selected match ups?

    Just curious for the boycotting the Super Bowl crowd if you were offered free tickets to this Super Bowl would you still turn them down?

     

    Some caller on WGR just said he was offered free tickets to the Super Bowl and he turned them down because he didn't want to watch the Chiefs.  I get not wanting to watch the game, and I get not wanting to root for the Chiefs but call me a sellout if you want if I was offered free tickets to the Super Bowl I'd be going.  Don't get me wrong I would be wearing my Bills gear and rooting against the Chiefs but for me I couldn't turn down that opportunity to actually attend a Super Bowl as the ticket prices these deals are outside of my financial budget.  

    Can I take them and then resell them?

    Mine is:
     

    2 cups of flower

    3 eggs

    1 tablespoon of Extra Virgin Olive Oil

    Healthy amounts of ground Garlic, Italian Seasoning, and Basil. 

     

    To me, the most important thing to have when making homemade pasta is a great pasta roller. My wife gave me one, imported from Italy, and it is great. (Marcato Atlas Roller 180)

     

    Anyone have any different recipes that bring out the flavor?

    Did you take out a second mortgage!😳

     

    Too rich for my blood!

     

    And... Don't think I missed that misspelling of: Flour 😉
