I’d be willing to bet what happened is that they forgot to lock up, and are blaming the power outage on the problem. They might even believe it.

Depends where you work. Most customers are reasonably cool, and most of the rare assholes aren’t White where I work. I’m sure it’s different in upper middle class areas. Thirty years, btw.

It’s a lot harder for Japanese to learn English, and us Japanese because they are such different languages. It’s a lot easier for us to learn other European languages because they are all related to each other.

That’s how I had to drive the 1973 VW type II I learned to drive in. Scary as hell in winds. I got blown out of the lane on the 405 once.
