BTW, it gets worse as the time nears to retire to TV, so get ready, the last year is worse.

I'm surprised to read the comments about tipping at Crispers. :dontknow: I often have lunch or dinner at Crispers. I always either leave a tip on the table for the wait staff or hand it to them. It never occurred to me not to tip.

Re: TOTV luncheon
 

that's so nice Barefoot. Since they do deliver the food and clean up the tables, I think that's a good idea. Wonder if they really have that rule about no tipping?

Re: TOTV luncheon
 

Kathie, I asked the manager why there wasn't a tip jar. He said that Publix owned it and did now allow tipping. If any employee was caught accepting a tip, they would be fired on the spot. Tips are to be turned in and Publix does something with them -- he didn't know what. He was a young kid, but seemed to be pretty definite about it.

Thanks, Kathi, It feels better to know I have others who share (or have shared) my pain ;) !

Yep, Hyacinth. And the good part of this addiction is, when I finally DO get to TV, I'll already have some friends (to at least see monthly, at the Luncheons). :bigthumbsup:

Re: TOTV luncheon
 

PM (Marcia),

The first time you attend the lunch or any TOTV event, you will be so ecstatic to meet all these people you will feel like we have felt, like we knew each other all our lives...

Its the greatest feeling ever!! Can't wait to meet you guys. When are you coming down? Join us in chat, we have even more fun in there.

Kathie

Re: TOTV luncheon
 

I can only imagine how fun it will be to meet all you fun people!! We'll be down the end of May for 5 days!!! Can't wait. One of these eves I'll have to join in the chat room. I was there once, but it moves so fast. Thanks, Kathie

Re: TOTV luncheon
 

Now that Marcia mentions it, I have tried the chat room and can't believe how fast people can type. I thought they were talking and the computer was typing via one of those software programs. How are you all so fast? I would like to chat but feel I am too slow. What's the deal?

Re: TOTV luncheon
 

No, no, no, no, no!!!

We love slow typers in chatroom. They tend to slow us down to where we can read what we just typed.... Also, we need some good spellers, cause we can't even understand some of Handie's typing....

Starting in May, I'll hold typing classes in TV and you'll all become as good as the fastest typist in da bronx!! Meeeee!

:redface: Kathie

Re: TOTV luncheon
 

Hi - join Chat Pack. If you can not type fast do not worry - you will notice the sentences are usually not long. At times, there are more than one conversation going on at the same time, and different chat packers will join in. After a while you will be able to follow.

Must admit, we all get lost sometimes in the chat room. There is always room for one more, so pull up a chair and just join in.

We are a very friendly welcoming bunch of people - some of are wannabees and some are newbees and some have been living here for awhile.

Looking forward to having you join us. Shy Kathie will give typing lessons in May.

See ya all'

Redwitch: So glad you are going to get to go to the luncheon after all. Have a great time.
Can't wait till the April luncheon which I will be attended. Yippee.

About Chat, if you can't type fast, better reason to go on chat. Practice makes perfect. You get to practice eye/hand coordination: looking at the screen while finding the letters, that way, you don't miss anything. Try it.

Re: TOTV luncheon
 

Today? 3 oclock? Who's going? I am ready to meet my TOTV friends and want to be sure it is at Crispers near Publix on 466?? Thanks! Rhonda

Re: TOTV luncheon
 

I plan to go.
