[QUOTE="Abbey, post: 233351, member: 179"] Ok. I sheepishly retreat to a hidden corner on this issue. I routinely say 'no problem' with customers. You want to find wet wipes? Not a problem. I don't know why, but I do. It's not it's THEIR problem, it's just it's my problem that I don't mind. I guess it's semantics. I guess that is why we are trained to say MY PLEASURE. (Gag me now.) So when I say that, it's telling you that it is not a problem. I'm glad to help. I'll do whatever. Now you're messing with my head, Star (which she routinely does). Now I'm going to spend the next few weeks screening what I say to people. Or worse, saying what is really on my mind. You really don't want to hear that. No problem...have a great day. It's been my pleasure. :winking: Loth...ya know is in every sentence around her. You can't escape. ML...I love to think that I am in that young generation of people. One can fantasize. It's not been a problem.:peaceful: Abbey [/QUOTE]
