Another case of being less than perfection...

This refers ...or is similar...to a previous post...sort of...about perfection... A couple left a Sydney cafe because the barista, who lives with Tourettes Syndrome, was letting out what they described as a "bark". So what did they do...they cancelled their coffee order and gave the said cafe a one star review on google *    WHAT...why even bother to say anything at all! While stating they were "greeted with warmth" they felt somewhat "unsettled" so as the barista was making their coffee they quickly cancelled the order and left the premises to the shock and surprise of the staff. To have to live with Tourettes must be difficult His employer is pleased with him and he gives great service he said. "He is one of the family there and treated like a brother. They didn't eat or stay for coffee so why even bother to give a one star review?" he stated. That's what got the owner more upset than the barista having  a "tick" and occasiona

Oh to be less than perfect..

People are funny...Why do they state the obvious? Why say anything at all? πŸ˜– After playing sports and basket ball ( at my height if you saw me you would ask the usual question I have been asked a million times before...being tall that is... "Do you play basketball?" 😣 )  I have some hip pain for which I occasionally take tablets. Today while doing some garden work I must have strained "something" and as I was walking out a lady I often say hello to said almost in some kind of shock..."You have a limp!" What can you say in reply...really...I mean..😑 stating the obvious as I try my best to walk normally. I felt like saying .."So?" but didn't of course.  It's almost as though because of the said limp...slight limp I add...I should be whisked off to some kind of internment camp for damaged people for the less than perfectπŸ˜† I wouldn't mind but a few weeks previously someone else said exactly the same thing.."You have a limp!"
