Somebody finished off the pot of free coffee in the kitchen, so I had to start a fresh brew and wait a few minutes to have some...
connect your computer to itI just upgraded my TV, and I have no good place to put my 42" 1080p
Our daughter had a car to drive the day she got her license - I'd much rather pay for gas/insurance/car than provide taxi service or have her driving in other kids cars.For your daughter. Simple for her though. Get a job, pay for it and the insurance. Report back her reaction, please.![]()
That does suck, getting your mind and tummy all prepped for some yummy goodness and blammo, no goWent to my favorite BBQ joint and they were already out of Brisket at Lunch time. I got there 30 minutes late and it was already gone.
I can't express how sad I was. I had this lunch planned since Friday, I knew what sides I was going to get and everything.
You can buy a 90s economy car for the price of an 80s economy car... If you're really trying to save money though, buy a car with a timing chain, something that won't require a lot of maintenance. Nissan made some cars in the 90s with timing chains and they're solid vehicles assuming you've already fixed the issue with their tensioners.you could always buy her a 80s economy car
Ugh, that is the worst! I hate getting all excited for a particular lunch/dinner, then having it fall through.Went to my favorite BBQ joint and they were already out of Brisket at Lunch time. I got there 30 minutes late and it was already gone.

The real problem is when it happens every day. Um, you know you are going to sell out of X type of meat in 30 minutes, why don't you just make more?Ugh, that is the worst! I hate getting all excited for a particular lunch/dinner, then having it fall through.

out of brisket =/= out of meatMy grandmother used to run a BBQ joint and she had a timed perfectly and would go take meat off the pit and put more on. Every 8 hours like clock work. She wasn't about to turn away customers because she ran out of meat. That is money going to a competing business!
Yeah, we went to a local bakery yesterday and we pretty much knew they would be out of cream puffs because they always run out after about 2:00 PM. So annoying; just make more! :colbert:The real problem is when it happens every day. Um, you know you are going to sell out of X type of meat in 30 minutes, why don't you just make more?

If I want brisket and they are out of brisket, they are out of meat. That also means they are probably low on chopped beef as well. They need to get their shit together. McDonalds doesn't run out of cheese burgers.out of brisket =/= out of meat
yes, but McDonalds doesn't take 8 hours to make a piece of meat.If I want brisket and they are out of brisket, they are out of meat. That also means they are probably low on chopped beef as well. They need to get their shit together. McDonalds doesn't run out of cheese burgers.
True, I probably won't leave that time, but the next time I want BBQ, I will be going somewhere else. I shouldn't have to say "Oops! It's 10 minutes past when I need to leave to get what I want from X place! I should go anyway and get something else."yes, but McDonalds doesn't take 8 hours to make a piece of meat.
Just sayin', I'd rather have a restaurant run out of 10/10 meat vs leaving out meat that will sit and die if they don't get 400 people through the door by 2p.
i dunno, if i go to a bbq joint and they're out of brisket i buy ribs or something. i most certainly don't leave.

I'd recommend you stick to Mickey D's then.If I want brisket and they are out of brisket, they are out of meat. That also means they are probably low on chopped beef as well. They need to get their shit together. McDonalds doesn't run out of cheese burgers.
