unless you have cute girls with frosty nipples at your house, your ac sucks.

course, if you don’t have frosty man nipples either, you might be +1.

CMcG reminds me of an old Seinfeld episode

LOL! I grew up in NY and my deli was exactly like the soup nazi–and I miss it! There would be a 100 person line that would move through in like 5 minutes. If you stopped the flow by asking a stupid questions or didn’t think to figure out what you wanted while on line (during morning rush hour) they would literally move on to the next person. Great for coffee and a bagel, not so good for major financial transactions.

PS is this six degrees of kevin bacon? Banks to Nipples in three… you guys are weird.

Costco sales are actually down lately… they seem busy.. but because this is the end of the fiscal year and the managers are fighting to get their payroll bonuses… so they cut massive hours.. and then the store looks busy.. in reality there is less traffic, but less employees and open lines too.

Costco will always “look” busy even if the economy is slowing.. one reason is that they sell food, water, and consumer staples. The other and possibly more important is that Costco is constantly adjusting their workforce in regards to sales volume, door counts, and average shop price. They will always seem busy because they are too efficient to have employees standing around if unnecessary.

I do my bi-weekly CostCo run during around two PM on a weekday (when I telecommute). I’ve noticed that they seem to be much less busy then they were towards the beginning of the year. I rarely have to wait even with only a few of the cashier lanes open.

Can’t say I can complain, other than the volume of free samples is down as well!

What’s wrong with nipples? I like that better than the politics discussed on this “housing” blog

Muggle–Bwahaha! I have to go to NYC twice a year. During the Seinfeld days, someone I do business with asked me if I wanted to go to the Soup Nazi. Huge line outside and it was mid-summer. I declined, fearing humiliation such as George experienced when he asked “Where’s my bread? Aren’t I supposed to get bread?” He was summarily dismissed FOREVER.

The Seinfeld episode I was referring to was the one in which George (probably, or it could have been Kramer?) went to a bank where…most of the details escape me…they promised to give you $100 or something if the teller didn’t greet you properly, such as “Hello! How may I help you?” George’s teller simply said “Yo!” Hilarity ensued.
