She looked like a teen. Many, many, years ago my first job was at a mall clothing store. People yelled at me all the time when their credit cards were declined. They would scream at me to try it again as if I had control over what cards get declined or not. Simply put, they're being called out on the fact that they are maxing out their credit cards. Really sad employees have to put up with ignorant crap like that! It's as if their parents never taught them manners! Funny I left retail after college to be a Bank Manager. Not much better! LOL!

BTW, my DH and I make all (or most) of our purchases with credit cards. One because I 'm protected that way as a consumer and two because my DH also travels a lot for work so we rack up a ton of miles! Can't tell you the last time we paid for a flight! As long as you're responsible with it and pay it in full every month there is nothing wrong with using a credit card. It's when you use it and don't pay that can get you into big trouble!

I no longer trust the media ESPECIALLY after the white teen with the MAGA hat and the native American. I will not jump to conclusions.

The only conclusion I can jump to is that I see some young girls acting really out of line. In your world do you have some good excuses for that?

I hope not because it looks psychotic to me.

LOL. It was a simple, simple question. Could have meant a myriad of other things, including [typical] teen behavior, [typical] hoodrat behavior, [typical] girl behavior, [typical] *insert race* behavior, [typical] lowlife behavior... How was anyone supposed to know what the hell you meant?

Imagine being in an open forum in a board meeting discussing budget demands for a new project:

"Sir, what departments do you believe can sustain temporary allocation cuts to fund this project?"

"Well there are..."

"Yes."
Good thing, C-D Forum Board is not a board meeting and I'm not obligated to go into any details of what I meant by my response. But, since you asked, I gave you my response. Sorry, it didn't trigger you as you expected.

No way to jump to any conclusions here.

You're assuming I expected to be "triggered." I'm sorry, but in my 6 years of being here, I have no such history.
You're not obligated to anything. You posted a very empty response. I asked you to elaborate. You answered. And that's that.

Well said. Anyone with any common sense knew exactly what you meant if you axe me.
