you only get freedom of speech if you agree with me. if you don't, you are obviously too narrow minded to deserve the right.

My answer is that Freedom of speech is allowed, just as I have the freedom to condemn you for your speech.

So, have I been there, one just got another job so I got rid of her, she would be nice to your face and then talks bad about causing trouble when there was not a problem, and she would have clickys, and everyone had the same problem with this women,and I would do her work while she was doing school work on state time. She would gossip on the phone, we don't get as many phones calls since she went bye bye, and my life is alot calmer since she left. She would talk bad to the new person in the office, and tell them something that is not true

OK just got an email. I'd like to clarify that my gripe above had ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with the News & Views thread. I'm usually afraid to go in there. I'm sorry if anybody thought it did. What I was referring to is quite trivial in retrospect.

I think we all have someone like that in any office space.

Is returning your grocery cart to the cart bins - which are most often times just a space or two away in the parking lots - really that hard to do? C'mon, it takes all of 10 seconds and the extra fresh air and walking those few steps is a GOOD thing. No one should be "above" the act of doing the most simplest and nicest of tasks.

LOL. I was at Costco the other day and parked next to a cart return stall. In the spot on the other side of me was an abandoned cart. All they had to do was walk about 10 paces to put it in the cart stall, but NOOOOOO. I think these are the same people who circle the parking lot for 15 minutes hoping to find a spot close to the door. While they circle, I park further away and am in the store before they've turned off their engines.

Whast peeves me is that there are NO cart stalls near handicapped parking. I don't know how many times I've grabbed somebodys cart and taken it to the stall for them. Parking lot designers/store owners must not think. Yes they are parked closer to the doors but there is a REASON for that!!!!

When people leave those carts anywhere they please I always wonder what they are like at home ~ slobs? Lazy? Some of us circle the lot for a close space because we don't qualify as 'handicap' but have issues walking with bad feet and/or knees.

that's why i circle. i don't qualify for a handicapped parking. but after walking in the grocery store, it's too much for me. shopping exhausts me. i'm thankful most of the stores i go to offer help out with my groceries.

Me too. I had surgery on my left foot because it was supposed to help but only made it worse. It's been almost 2 years now and it's still bad. And, I trashed my right knee in an accident. I can't get all my groceries in one trip because the cement floors kill my knee by the time I get done. The less walking the better.

Have you guys thought about having your groceries delivered. It costs between $5 and $10. If you plan well, you don't have to shop that often and just pick up fresh produce.

We had our groceries delivered for awhile when I dislocated my knee. It was a fantastic service with outstanding quality. Then, sadly, they went out of business.

Landi...check out Vons.com...they vary by area of course, but I know here in Yorba Linda they offer Saturday delivery...and during the week up until like 7 or 8. You can choose your time. Possibly even Albertson's...as they are the competition. <whew I didn't even get smacked>

I had Albertsons, but they closed up shop here in No. Cal, so now use Safeway. They deliver Sat and Sunday, the only time they don't deliver is some holidays, like Christmas. Although they did deliver one day at Christmas, I think Christmas eve but only for the morning. Just check their websites.

They don't deliver here. I usually just wait until late at night when there are fewer people there and usually no screaming kids.

Come live in the boonies w/us -- there isn't one store that delivers (unless you count the Amazon grocery section! LOL) However, we have all kinds of farmer's markets in the summer and fall (Our county produces the most asparagus and cherries in the country and we're second only to Wash. in apple production.)

I agree and in the cities, they don't deliver would be nice but no one does it
