I didnt prank or get pranked yesterday, was too busy. But a customer came in (he's a regular) and pulled one on us, a cute one so he couldnt get in trouble. It actually worked for some employees!!!
He was asking around for powdered water. A couple of cashiers fell for it and called different depts asking about powdered water!!
.....
LOL... I would have told him something like "We're out of it now, but it's on order, we do have liquid water, however!"..
No pranks given or received.
Glenda can help cut down some dead grape vines and cut back some bushes in my landlady's yard.
The last time I said "Do as I say, not as I do" was when I was a manager right before retirement.
Last advise given was to my daughter on a decision she was trying to make. I think she followed it.
I had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich in honor of today.
A bottle of Chianti helped slake my thirst tonight.
