I wasn't trying to be unfriendly. I was just pointing out that that I hated and failed history 50 years ago. So, I don't think young people today are all that much different, and the girl's reaction is not a reflection of modern times.

aninjamom and bogieshooter, thanks.
Some of you other guys jump to conclusions, and some didn't seem to understand. There was no line. I was the only car. The manager was never called. I was having friendly banter with her. Yes, I was a long time teacher and I love teaching and interacting. Kudos to her for working. I promise you, she was not traumatized nor penalized in any way. AND, as I said, the brightest kids today are as bright as ever. It was just commentary. |

Ditto. Not sure why the OP felt the need to "quiz" someone. Seems like a jerk move to me.

Kids
[QUOTE=Jerry C;1608896]As a retired teacher, sometimes I like to talk to kids, especially when I travel. Last week I went through the drive in at McDonalds. A young lady, around 20 was working the window. Directly in front of me at the edge of the parking lot was a flag, flying at half staff.
I asked the young lady "Why is the flag flying at half staff?" Of course I knew, but I was curious to see what she'd say. She said she didn't know why, and in fact she said she didn't know there was a flag. "I'll ask the manager, she said." I told her that it was for the deceased President Bush. She said, "Really? I didn't know." Well ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, It seems, you should have known to put that comment on her cell phone, if she does not see it on a screen, now,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, well, they do not think it is worth knowing. Wise up Mr. Senior |
