I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

Did You Ever Notice

That there are people in this world you just don't seem to be able to have anything go well for them? Especially when it involves dealing with other people who are providing services. That their food is delayed or their bookings get screwed up or reservations get dropped.

Have you also ever noticed how those people typically aren't the nicest people to deal with, even when you're not in those situations described above? The people you'd rather gnaw your own arm off instead of having to deal with them?

Yeah. I'm beginning to think there is some causality here. One that they don't seem to understand.

The only thing that makes being stuck in a bad situation while in line at an Airline Check-in Counter is when the guy directly in front of you is a complete ass to the Ticket Agent. Being next in line, gives you the opportunity to be really nice and understanding...and get the Ticket Agent to like you and give you free stuff.

I've had it happen more than once.
