You are making the assumption that she was fired specifically for this indecent. By her own admission she was having trouble with mesmerizing the table numbers. When you work in the service industry they don't tell you every sing reason you were fired.

Well, I certainly empathize with that woman!
When I was in elementary school, I was...let's just say...not great when it came to arithmetic.
If only I had been able to mesmerize the numbers so that they totaled my incorrect sum, I might have been better at that subject.
Although this is verbal rather than written, the seeming frequency of it's use is new to me.
I watch Shark Tank and it seems like every other applicant responds to questions by prefacing their explanations with the word "So".
Is this just something common to entrepreneurs?

In my opinion (and I have stated this previously in this forum), it seems that a huge percentage of the "under 35" generation believes that every response to a question should begin with the word, "so".
It seems that, whenever I hear a younger person being interviewed on radio or TV, no matter whether that person is an MD, or a financial analyst, or a nuclear physicist...or, if he/she comes from some other type of career that requires a lot of education...their responses almost always begin with "so", and it drives me up the wall!

Currently, I am reading Tommy Gun Winter, a true crime tale which takes place in metro Boston, in the early '30s. The author--despite being a former newspaper reporter--misuses several words in the book, but the most frequent misusage is his repeated use of the word "shimmy", when he should have used the word, "shinny".
Unfortunately, this author is not alone with this type of misusage, as I see it fairly often in print, and I hear it very often when people speak.
