Tough Talk,
I live in a state that has a five cent bottle deposit law and every week I take them back to my grocery store. The lady who “guards” the redemption center is a real snot. She ignores me when I approach, makes an annoyed expression and haughtily takes the bottles and cans and then takes her good sweet time filling out the return slip. I feel bad if she is having a personal issue and don’t want to start a problem, but I’m actually thinking of writing to the manager as she is so off-standish. What do you think TT? (Chassin, Oregon)
Chassin,
I would go to the heart of this problem and ask this woman in your most innocent and sweet demeanor if everything is okay. Whatever she says, you change your attitude and respond in harsh, angry and your meanest tone that you’re asking because she is acting like a GDSB and tell her to knock it off. If she gets nasty, then you demand to speak to the corporate regional director for the store. Don’t waste your time with local management.
