Poor Ivy. And poor you, too, if you've had to deal with anything like this! Ugh, why do people suck, truly?

I do love her bitching to Aaron, though. They're such awesome siblings. :D Well done!

Might have the blue egg?

I deal with so many pissed off people you have no idea. >< Fortunately if they start swearing at me, I get to hang up. Poor Ivy doesn't have that option.

Thanks very much!

Haha, poor Ivy. A wedding band WOULD work, even if she is sixteen. Or maybe she can get her manager to hover around behind her and tell people harassing her to gtfo.

Green egg?

Her manager sadly thinks people hitting on the counter girls means they're more likely to come back. Ivy is never working retail EVER AGAIN after this summer, though, so there's this. Thanks!

LOL! Aww, that happens in all areas of dealing with people, unfortunately. (The best / worst one I wittnessed was a guy waltzing up to a girl with a Trainee badge and going "hi Tracy, what's your other tit called?"). Poor Ivy. At least Aaron is understanding. A wedding ring might work. Men often find women invisible when they wear them.

*ponders egg basket...* Ermm... (I'm colour blind) Is the one in the front available?

No, but the pink and the white one still are.

ichthusfish April 7 2011, 17:48:39 UTC

White :)

Oh, for the love of Christ. I think Ivy would've punched anybody who tried that on her. She is Not Okay with sexual harassment of any flavor. Thanks for reading!

Oy vey! I can't blame Ivy for this at all. It's just not acceptable at all. I do love Aaron and Ivy, though, and how he really does listen to her and offers some suggestions, even if she shoots them down in her bad temper :P

May I have that yellowish egg in the back, please?

bookblather April 8 2011, 03:24:00 UTC

Well, she doesn't really want suggestions, she just wants someone to listen while she complains. He's good at that too. :D I do love their relationship. Thanks for reading!

He's quite familiar with her rants by now. :D He knows to just let her bitch until she's done. I'm so glad you liked this! Thanks for reading!
