I get intimidated by rude people, and I need to persevere. Nicely - but persevere. I've spent a lot of time working with the public, and there's never any excuse for bad behavior - on either side.

Other than the Augie experience, I hope you're doing well!karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16313237142656662148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4969669656958290240.post-23643982116868518092011-11-08T12:27:05.235-08:002011-11-08T12:27:05.235-08:00I think I've probably talked with Augie before...I think I've probably talked with Augie before.
