here it is again
Hi all,
I've been busy with new old time radio cds, and missed 2 days, but here I am, back again with another episode of the story.So, since it's after midnight here, and I hope to look at my friends page before I have to go to bed, I'll get right right in to it.
Tiffany and I were busy for the next couple of hours,and didn't get to talk anymore until our shift was over, and we were on the way home.I would have to drop Tiffany off at her house first, since we had driven to work in my car.
"I'm going to have to call a car place tomorrow and see if I can get them to haveit fixed" Tiffany lamented gloomily.
I sympathized, observing that they didn't make cars to last very long anymore.
Tiffany grew tired of talking aboutcar troubles, so we talked about the job instead.
"So what happened with you and the last blind customer?" Tiffany wanted to know.
"Oh, nothing really," I shrugged,"I just took their order and asked what the blind one would have, that's all."
"Well," Tiffany said, growing thoughtful, "Maybe you should've asked her directly.
"So I broke a breach of blind ettiquette and didn't ask her first, what's the big deal?"
"You have to talk to them the way you'd talk to anyone else," she explained reasonably, "they don't like it when people talk around them, through them, or at them, they want to be talked to directly."
"How do you know so much about blind people?" I questioned, "you haven't been around that many of them yourself."
"It's just common sense," Tiffany reasoned," "I don't think anyone likes being treated as if they were practically invisible, or like they don't hear anything, when they can. Come to think of it, I don't think I would either."
"Alright alright, I get your point, I said, though to tell the truth, I'm not so sure I did. I think mostly,I just said I did, to get Tiffany off the subject. She seemed to be more at ease with blind people, though I couldn't understand why. Maybe she was just more of a rationalist than I was, maybe I was out of touch, I didn't know.
I pulled up in front of Tiffany's house, and the subject was dropped for the time being.
Well that's all for now folks, hope it continues to be enjoyable. it gets more challenging to add more, as time goes on. I think the ending will be the hardest of all.
Well, happy reading to all, and to all a good night.
