And I thought being Ma'amed was bad.

It's not as easy to figure out when the little glass cups are broken or lost...

DISCOUNT ? did anyone say DISCCOUNT ? :wink:
i'll take it anytime !

a few years ago we where visiting williamsburg , virginia , and were approached to have a look at "holiday condos" being built .
we declined politely but the two young ladies were very persistent and promised "no pressure" and a $50 giftcard for the POTTERY BARN - we were going to go there anyway .
true : no pressure - didn't buy and collected our $50 gift certificate .
went to the POTTERY BARN - SENIORS 10 % OFF - so we picked up a few items , told the cashier that we were seniors - she rang up the sale and we gave her our giftcard and a few dollars extra
DISCOUNTS FOR SENIORS : LOVE THEM ! :wink:

I love discounts too. That's why I shop at this nutty store in the first place.

But I was totally unprepared to be mistaken as a senior.

I must have looked concerned, or puzzled or agog or something because she quickly went on to explain store policy, her newness, etc.

And I am looking and feeling a bit aged this week.

Opposite of dear edgar, I would love to be able to order off the senior menu since most restaurants provide way too much food. On rare trips to the fast food joints I order the kid's meals most of the time. I'm not some teensy little waif but I like to eat more little meals than a few big ones.

But seriously, I need a day off.

(sheepishly looks around, raises hand...)

It happened to me yesterday. For the first time.

Yeah, it's a bummer, boomer.

What's worse is, it wasn't a 12 year old who asked. It was a white-haired little old lady. When she saw the expression on my face, she quickly said, "Well, if you're 55...sorry, just thought I'd ask!"

55? Hmph. I have a whole year and 2 months to go. I guess I should excuse her.

But I don't feel like it. Evil or Very Mad
