I would travel to Europe if I had a year off too.

If I could even get another month in the British Isles (this time getting to Ireland and/or Northern Ireland) I'd be happy. Maybe in a few years.

*Health care for everyone! Law that forces everyone to work 6-12 months in retail, food service, or similar customer service so they learn to be nice!*

LOL! It'd certainly stop most horrible customers in their tracks!

I hope so!

I love the site notalwaysright.com. What gets me the most is when customers want someone fired. WHY would you want someone's livelihood taken away because you were a bad customer???

What are drunken noodles?

I'm with you on the travelling around Europe thing!!!

It's a Thai dish. Somewhat similar to pad Thai but with broader flat noodles and no egg.

I already travel vicariously through you!

I like the idea of making everyone work in some kind of customer service job, I think it would really make people think twice before being rude to workers.

Some people are just rude in general, but then there are those who think service people are beneath them and *deserve* it. How does that attitude even develop?

It's great to see how many people said they would travel if they had the time and money for it. that's me, as well.

Even if I could only see more of the US, I'd still do it.

Same here. There are still a few states I haven't visited yet.

[identity profile] ringsandcoffee.livejournal.com 2017-09-19 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
I'm up to 31 states, but a few of those were very brief drive-throughs.

ACK I need to go on a road trip!

I'm only up to 28, but that's actually visited visited.
