We don't stop selling the 2Fer until late April, which means the 30 days after the first day of use goes until late May. UG!

I've had several heated discussions with leads and managers about appeasement (I know I know, its like we're at war with the jerks) and how all it does is teach them that if they wine they'll get their way.
I had a manager overrule me and give something to a guest they didn't deserve. Since I don't like being made the fool, I just waited until the next guest who asked for the same thing.

"According to the rules, I can't do that for you, but my manager can, let me call him over for you." :twisted: Hey, if that's how he wants to do it, why should I stop him?

After only two of those, he saw what I was up to and he actually apologized and promised to stick to the policy in future.

Thanks Zazu! I'm going to suggest that approach to my Dad. He's always complaining that the managers override everything he does.

I really like that, Zazu. An example for everyone.


My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?
