Hello everyone! Welcome back to Four for Fridays, after a week of solid working and chasing. (How come this happens just before the holidays?) Anyways, here are some questions for you...
1) What are your Easter plans?
2) What are your memories of Easter?
3) What do you think of parenting these days?
4) What do you think the customer service these days?
Enjoy your weekend!

I guess I will go first today.
1) I have to work and hopefully get Drew to make dinner Sunday.
2) Depends which one you want to hear the good one or bad one. The one I really like is hiding my sons basket in the dryer and he could not find it. It took him almost two hours.
3) There are some parents that don't care about the kids. Just let the kids run their lives instead of the parent being in charge. That is because the kids know that the parents can not spank them because the kids can get them for child abuse. That never stopped me from disciplining my kids that way. If my kids deserved a spanking they got it. I told my kids I would dial the number for them. I think these days the parents are afraid of their own children. That is why the kids are way out of control. It is not like when we grew up anymore.
4) Some places is alright but then you get the idiots on the phone that do not know what they are talking about. Like when I had to call HP for our computer before. It took me three times to get what I needed for our computer. Then I called a computer store her in town and the people there are awesome. It all depends who you deal with.
I hope everyone has a great weekend!♥
I'm trying for 2nd, wish me luck. lol
1. Find my bunny suit from last year and do what rabbits do.
2. Going to Florida the week after Easter, with my Grandpa...my first experience with 5th's. His nickname was "Jiggs"
3. What does this have to do with Easter? J/K Drew. I'm glad I am done with it.
4. What does this have to do with Easter? J/K Drew. Actually no, I'm not. Except that massage parlor on Main st has good customer service. lol
1. Going to M-I-L's house for Easter lunch.
2. The one memory I have of Easter is always having a new hat and new white gloves to go to church.
3. Parents today want to be their kids "friends" rather than a parent. Kids today need to learn that life isn't always easy and you have to take the good with the bad.
4. Most of the time it is okay but like THB said, if you need some computer tech support and you are screwed.
Happy Easter everyone.
1. Brunch at the Casino. NO gambling. REALLY
2. Getting drunk on my ass drinking a $1.00 a bottle of wine (about 6 of them) when I was about 19. The wine was called "Ariba" and that Is what I yelled all day while drinking It. I was SICK for a week. REALLY, a week. Darn near killed me. It's still a favorite family story. (what left of family)
3. I think parenting Is an ART today. It's a work In progress, and takes a lifetime of HARD work, and patience. THAT Is what Is lacking today. The TIME and PATIENCE. I am VERY happy to say BOTH of my daughter have It. I have NO idea where they got It, but It didn't come from ME. I have EIGHT amazing Grandchildren, and ALL can be attributed to their MOTHERS.
4. I just had this conversation. Customer Service Is ALL a business really has to offer today. I your store, company, etc. lacks customer service, forget It, your screwed. The WEB now provides an outlet for nearly ANYTHING you want or need. The local business people will either open their eye's and kneel to the customer, or they better try to find a job. In short, customer service Is NOT available as much as It needs to be.
DREW, Those were VERY good questions. Have a GREAT Holiday.
1. All the kids will be home. Cooking a ham, what else? :)
2. Patent leather shoes with vaseline to polish them. Easter hats and dresses. Grandparents. Family together. I miss my parents and the holidays with my wacky siblings. You don't appreciate it when you have it.
3. Good parenting requires self-sacrifice. You have to be responsible and on-call, aware, 100%. You have to sometimes be the bad guy. Seems that people today don't have the commitment, nor the ability to think beyond themselves. The kids are running the show. Sad stuff.
4. Customer service (any kindness in general) has slipped, bigtime. We get what we pay for. You want that $5.00 Tee Shirt? Then forget about the frills. Companies come, companies go and there is always someone willing to step in.
1. Forgetting that stores are closed on Easter until I get there.
2. Discovering I like jelly beans and hate marshmallow based Easter treats (including Peeps)
3. Not a job I will take up.
4. I think it would be a good idea.
1. going to my moms, I have to bring dessert - HoHo cake :)
2. hated having to hunt of the baskets but love watching younger generation hunt for theirs
3. parenting is alot of work with little to no appreciation, and not too many people willing to do all the work, then the kids suffer and drive the rest of us crazy...
4. customer service is hit and miss. I've been on both sides of this one, it is a really hard job and few people have the personality to do it well (doesn't help if the person with a problem is on attack mode tho either)
1) Trying not to be sick.
2) Not much.
3) I'm not a parent but I suspect it takes more of that sacrifice that kk talked about than I am willing to make.
4) Like Lizardmom, I've been on both sides. Some customers are just assholes and enjoy messing with others, or it's a power trip. Overall, though, I believe that customer service is way down. Ask an employee in WalMart (if you can find one) a question. They don't give a damn.
Jed, do you remember what Bugs Bunny said about math. "One thing we rabbits know how to do , that is multiply"
The way this generation is going, the new statement should be
" children, do you know where your parents are?"
An easter bunny that is friendly is always good customer service.
Happy Easter Irregulars !
1) Stay home and have a good dinner.
2) Hiding Easter eggs from my folks.
3) It's a difficult job. It's ever harder for those with broken homes. Two parents, each with different set of rules can create issues for the child as well with the parents (especially if they don't agree on things.)
4) Lately, I've been seeing a trend in poor customer service. Employees not knowledgeable in their fields of expertise. Then again, I've seen employees go out and beyond the call of duty.
