More jackass management !

          Everywhere today MANAGEMENT insists on its precious prerogatives

    but almost nowhere can it demonstrate even ordinary COMMON SENSE .

         I often have breakfast in a Friendly's restaurant right across

    from my Church Ave. apartment in Warwick. ( here you can pay $4.00

    for a breakfast special that cost you $2.00 downtown at Ted's New

    York system )

           Yesterday I noticed a teenage waitress wearing a humiliating

    round paper patch with a special message for the exceptionally

    creepy customer : " If I forget to ask you for our juice, you

    can get one glass for free ! " ( near quote )

          I told the girl gently, I recall, that the manager should

    not subject the help to that humiliating nonsense. I said it

    reminded me of the junk food joints that try to force their

    horrid french fries on every customer. Who doesn't know that

    they serve this junk ?

          And who doesn't know that Friendly's has fruit juice ?

    We'll ask if we crave it !

         Today when I ordered my breakfast at Friendly's, there

    was a different teenage girl. This one a bit of a rebel . She

    wore her message patch upside down !

         I was proud of her and left a bigger tip than usual.

       She will learn that there is really no end to the Arrogance

    of Power !
