What did you learn today?

Odie · 10-05-2009, 07:17 PM

I though it would be very interesting to talk about what we learn each day.

I learned today how to put concrete crack sealer on my driveway to cover in holes and cracks so I don't have to get the driveway re-concreted.

It looked easy enough.

As I did each crack or hole, I realized I had to go back and keep refilling them, over and over and over again. They were full when I started, but as a short time went by, the sealant then sunk right down to the bottom.

huh!

Not today, but this weekend I learned some new tricks and how to 2 ball juggle.

I learned not to toss bad tomatos into the air and shoot them if the wind is blowing TOWARDS you.

Hey Bruv......now I really really understand how you feel.

I learned that it's all too easy to miss what someone is trying to tell you!
I really need to listen carefully.
I should know better

I could teach you something more about crack sealing so the sealer doesn't keep running away.

Next time if possible partially fill the void with fibre board or even old newspaper to stop the valuable sealer seeping away.

I learned not to trust a cashier who has no idea what she is doing.

Took back an item for refund...

I asked her for my refund slip to my instant card....she said she had to keep it?

she never asked me to sign the paper to say why I was bringing it back?

she never did refund my money.

just found that out now as I went to my on-line banking!

she charged me for it!

phoned the store, head cashier said she was brought over from another store and she doesn't know what's she doing. I said, then maybe she shouldn't be on cash!

now I have to go back there get the refund she just charged me for and the original refund.

I learned that the great big five pound bag of coffee that I bought and thought was ground coffee turned out to be coffee beans.

Ah well, fresh ground beans are better anyway.

I learned today that just because the sky is cloudy, doesn't mean it's going to rain.
