One of them kept promising me a job and then wouldn't return my calls. I actually sat on his desk in my patent leather pants and wouldn't get off until he hired me. It was the best decision he ever made. Another time I showed up on a cool1948 bicycle that was painted with zebra stripes. That wasn't the issue however. The issue was that I was wearing a matching zebra-striped outfit. The ladies in the maintenance department had a fit about that. The managers, especially the big wig paid them no mind however. The were too amused by my antics. Without me that place was D-U-L-L. I showed up in one of my mom's mini skirts another time. It was cute with matching undies so that nobody would get offended...except the ladies in maintenance that is. Fuddy-duddies they were. The big wig finally agreed to pull me into his office for a chat about the matter (just to shut up those old girls). I went into his office with a pad and paper like I was his secretary, perched myself onto the corner of his desk, crossed my legs with pen and paper at the ready and chirped "Yes Mr. Traska???" He fell into a gale of laughter and forgot what he supposed to talk to me about. We chatted for awhile and he sent me back to customer service. He lied to the old gals and told them he was stern with me. The outfit I wore next put that one to shame. It was Halloween however so I got away with it again.....HotrodMamma. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gene Henry" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, March 16, 2009 3:44 PM Subject: [Nighthawk Lovers] Tech Talk > > I was a customer Service and Repair Manager for about 30 years at Sears. > If > a customer at the counter demanded a "man" to answer their question, the > girls knew I would always ask them to confirm my opinion before giving the > final decision to the customer, as in "it kinda sounds like the timer > motor, > don't you think, "Susie counter clerk"?
