Exciting Tales of Interest [Eh, not really...]

The error is "happily", meaning that he was in fact not, but that's what he *said*. Happily is being noted as an error.

Yes, thank you. I was going to point that out and...fell asleep instead, lol

Ah....Maybe I was tired, meself, when I read it.

PS, I love that sig, Hobbs

You can just envision old-school Arnie in barbarian clothing w/ a tie saying that, can't you?

Or is it just me and I'm weird? lol

Only problem with waiting to get her off the clock is she might think he's a stalker by then

I'd say make a few more trips in there and get some more idle-chat action, and then very nicely ask her out to lunch.

Thanks, I think I'll try that.

And thanks to everyone else for your advice too. I greatly appreciate it as I'm not very good when it comes to matters of the fairer sex...

eh, it's stalking either way, whether he waits for hours and hours or comes by every few days 'just to chat.'

Best pickup line in the world? "Hello." Don't over complicate things. It's just as likely to end in fire and tears either way, but it takes longer to get there.

Okay! Considering all the “don’t hit on me” posts…is there a proper time/way to hit on a worker? Note that I didn’t do anything that night, I was just making idle talk as she worked on our order. sorry if this question is inapropriate, i just wanted some CS input.

I'd say no to this one hun. I've not met many of my fellow ovary bearing gender that find it too fabulous when they get hit on at work. It's mostly cause it creates the "If I do like you...well it's inappropriate" but "If I dont like you.... I cant shoot you down even nicely with out sounding like a jerk and possibly getting in touble" thing...

I did get a complaint once from a guy... complained to my SV that I was "rude" and had "Very bad customer service" Because when he asked me "Hey babe. Why don't you give me your ## and we can hang some time"... I said..."*nervous laugh* Uh, sorry but No."

In steps the English major!

[sic] is a latin abbreviation, short for "He said it." It is used after an uncommon or incorrect spelling or usage is rewritten verbatim, to indicate the error was in the original.

People sometimes come up with the backronym "Spelled In Correctly."

In steps the geek who took latin for four years-

"Sic" is not an abbreviation. It is a latin word that means, "thus." It is used to acknowledge that the error was in the original being quoted.

Um, should I point out this isn't a CW...? I work @ Ross, she works @ Starbucks...like, five stores down.
