I love that you are encouraging people to see shows, and featuring some of the most talented people America might not know on a national level. But had you done this three weeks ago, we would have seen Darren Criss sing in 'How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying" in stead of Nick Jonas, and the world would have been a much happier place. Just a thought.<div><br /></div><div>Sincerest of all sincerelys,</div><div>EB</div>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13935359386666484233noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8858201022170300329.post-82723635904701843342012-02-01T11:12:00.001-08:002012-02-01T11:25:17.661-08:00Dear United States Post Office:I wanted to start by saying that I really appreciate the fact that you deliver my mail almost everyday without fail. I like the way you encourage the mail people to smile and say 'hi' if I happen to be outside while they are delivering the mail, rocking their headphones and awesome shorts. And I like the fact that you have an automated machine that does almost everything for me at the post office, so I don't have to interact with any real humans.<div><br /></div><div>Listen, I know it's been tough lately, wondering if you will get to stay open, trying to figure out how much you can raise stamp costs, laying off people left and right. i get it, you're going through a rough time. I mean, let's face it, after email became popular, you were probably all 'We're so Screwed!' And it all went downhill from there.</div><div><br /></div><div>With all that said, I really just want to offer one tiny suggestion. Maybe when you have a line of over thirty people at your counter, you should call another person up instead of just making one poor post office worker handle it all. Because that one guy, that poor little dude got dumped all over the entire forty five minutes I wasn't hanging out in line. (Oh yeah, did I mention I was there is line for forty five minutes? Because I was.) Every time he called another person up to help them, he got an earful about how long the line was. And I guess it was just not within his job authority to go get someone else. And even though maybe four to five completely separate workers walked in and did something at the counter, thus seeing the situation their friend was in, they all went back to where they had come from and did not help.</div><div><br /></div><div>If you could get some heads together and try to figure out how to solve some of these problems, particularly the whole 'waiting in line for 45 minutes' things, I can assure you I would love to get the word out about how awesome you have become.</div><div><br /></div><div>Sincerely,</div><div>(I just wanted a roll of 100 stamps)</div><div>EB</div><div><br /></div>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13935359386666484233noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8858201022170300329.post-71577875487129155032011-12-23T08:23:00.000-08:002011-12-23T08:28:03.119-08:00Dear Future Self:No matter how pretty you think the sparkly gift wrapping paper is at target next Christmas season, DO NOT buy it! You will be finding glitter on everything in your house from magazines to oranges to your cats. It will not be swiffered up, it will not be dust-busted. No matter how much you try, glitter will be everywhere.<div><br /></div><div>Even if you convince yourself that you can do all the wrapping downstairs and therefore contain all sparkliness - it can't happen. It will get in your hair, in between your toes, and on your fingernails.</div><div><br /></div><div>So I know that you can be somewhat of a raccoon and the silver paper with shiny, bright, sparkly snowflakes is tempting, don't do it. Just don't. It's not worth the glitter in the cat food later on.</div><div><br /></div><div>Still vacuuming - </div><div>EB</div>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13935359386666484233noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8858201022170300329.post-86394168152347842512011-12-06T16:11:00.000-08:002011-12-06T16:33:39.732-08:00Dear Oriental Trading Company:Imagine my surprise when I opened up my mail today at my place of work, and found not one, not two, but seven December/January Catalogs from your company. That's right, seven of the exact same catalogs to one address. Three were addressed to the three former secretaries at the church (their employment ranging all the way back to when your company opened) one to the minister, one addressed straight up to just 'The Church', one to a member of the congregation that I am quite sure doesn't receive any of his other mail there, and one to me. (Which, by the way how did you know who I was? We haven't ordered anything from you in years, and I have never interacted with you.)<div><br /></div><div>Anyway, the whole thing seems a little inefficient to me. Seven catalogs for one place? It seems a little excessive. I'm not one to tell you how to run your business, but six of those catalogs ended up straight in the recycling bin. I don't know how much money mailing a catalog is, but if you're doing this to more people than just us, I am sure that you could save quite a bit of money by consolidating. </div><div><br /></div><div>I would call and tell you all this, but I am too busy mailing out the newsletters that we also email people and put out in hard copy in the foyer for people to pick up.</div><div><br /></div><div>Wait a second . . . </div><div><br /></div><div>EB</div>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13935359386666484233noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8858201022170300329.post-38899466924847396312011-12-02T07:26:00.000-08:002011-12-02T08:09:50.192-08:00Dear Facebook:I have never complained about any of your changes. I have never joined the groups entitled '5,000,000 to get Facebook to change back to it's old format' or 'Click here if you think the new Facebook sucks!' I understand that Facebook will once in a while have to change. And once in a while, it might be weird to figure out, or I might not like it. No one likes change, and hey, me especially.<div><br /></div><div>But I really am kind of upset you won't automatically import my blog now. Because there are four authors, it was really neat to just have one place it posted all entries for us to read, and for our adoring public to read (all two of them). And now I have to do the work, instead of just sitting around and letting you do all the work, which has kind of been my Mode of Operation.</div><div><br /></div><div>So consider this my one time to tell everybody that you are awful, your changes make me want to punch Mark Zuckerberg in the face, yada, yada, yada.</div><div><br /></div><div>Unsincerely,</div><div>EB</div><div><br /></div>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13935359386666484233noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8858201022170300329.post-20048701642078671242011-11-13T20:47:00.001-08:002011-11-13T20:56:36.940-08:00Dear Adam Sandler:You have to stop making movies. You have to stop. It's no good anymore, for anyone.<div><br /></div><div>And this is coming from someone that still walks around and says things like 'Everybody knows that shampoo is better than conditioner, ' and 'Shtop Looking at me Schwann', and 'Peeing your pants is cool!'. </div><div><br /></div><div>But seriously, the nineties are over and so are the years you had where it was feasible that you and Jennifer Anniston would fall in love. Just quit while you are (marginally) ahead, okay? Let us all remember you as Opera Man and the dude who made it onto alternative radio stations with a song called 'Lunch Lady Land'.</div><div><br /></div><div>Did you know most people are saying that the reviews for your latest movie are funnier than the movie itself? It's just sad. And don't even get me started on your fascination with Kevin James, and the most awful two hours of my life that were called 'Don't mess with the Zohan' ( I was literally dragged to that one and gloated all the way home about how bad it was).</div><div><br /></div><div>Just stop.

So I blew you off, decided I wouldn't give you a second thought, and never visited you again. <div><br /></div><div>Until today.</div><div><br /></div><div>A co-worker who was pleased with work I did for her this week offered me lunch, and then said 'How about Schlotzsky's?'

Rosemary bread croutons, grilled chicken pieces, pecans, goat cheese, spinach, romaine lettuce and red wine vinaigrette.

Why? I like the idea of making you pay for postage each month for no information from me.<div><br /></div><div>Plus, if you look at what you are charging us each month for health insurance, and think we have any money left over for stamps, let alone MORE insurance, you have more problems collectively then paying 44 cents for my blank envelope.</div><div><br /></div><div>You are killing me, </div><div>(and then making me pay through the nose for the medical bills afterwards)</div><div>-E </div>Ehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13935359386666484233noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8858201022170300329.post-12727344924229601022011-08-09T11:53:00.000-07:002011-08-09T11:53:52.618-07:00Dear Olive GardenI would like to state here and now that I think you are making up words that sound Italian but that are really nonsense.

The list is as follows:<br /><br />-You are on fire.<br />-Your car is on fire.<br />-Your car is gone.<br />-Someone is mugging an old lady outside.<br />-Target is on fire and no one knows it.<br /><br />Here is the reason you gave, (after the scared clerk mumbled 'ok', called her manager over and asked if there was a problem while you both waited):<br /><br />-'Yeah, I need to buy a keychain and I don't want to have to look all over the store for them.'<br /><br />Do you see the difference? <br /><br />Completely disgusted at your entitled attitude -<br />Emily<br />(who DID walk all over the store to try and find some ribbon, without once asking for a manager.)Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8858201022170300329.post-61214430895460675582011-06-06T15:23:00.000-07:002011-06-06T15:51:36.542-07:00Dear HGTV -I enjoy our show House Hunters, and I have for quite some time. I like seeing the different areas of the cities I have never been to. I like trying to guess what the real estate agent will show next. I even like betting on whether or not the couple/slash family will stay within the budget first stated. (Usually not.) ( "Hi, I'm the economy, have we met? No? Have you met my friend the housing market, he got in a little bit of trouble a while ago - didn't hear about it? Good. Good. Welcome home!") <br /><br />I like seeing the three top choices that families have when looking for a new house, and I love picking the one I would move into. Although, this does end up with me yelling at the TV when a wrong (according to me) decision is made. ('But house #3 had hardwood floors and neutral bedroom colors!! NEUTRAL COLORS!!')<br /><br />It is also a great TV show to have on when I am also perusing the interwebs or playing Word With Friends on my phone because I am interested but not that invested. Sometimes naps even occur while watching your show, but I don't view that as a bad thing.<br /><br />What I am not ok with however, is the new version: House Hunters International.<br /><br />I have never really seen a more pretentious show in my life.<br /><br />I don't need to see a family from England looking for an extra vacation home in Fiji, or a couple from New York buying an estate in Sicily because someone's great-great-great grandmother grew up there and they want to connect with their heritage. (Why not just tell the truth and say you want the wine? There's no shame in that.)<br /><br />In fact, here are recent things I have actually heard people say on House Hunters International:<br /><br />'This view of the ocean is nice, but we'd really enjoy it if we also had an infinity pool in our backyard instead of a regular one.'<br /><br />'I like the first house, but I think the second house would make my family more jealous.'<br /><br />'If we have a child, all seven bedrooms might be a necessity.'<br /><br />'We have to be close to the capital, in case the American President ever comes and visits.'<br /><br />'If I can't walk to the beach in less than thirty steps, I am too far away from the beach.'<br /><br />'I know I am in Italy and when people move out of their house in Italy it is totally normal and acceptable for them to take everything in the kitchen with them, but I am a whiny American and I want you to find me a house where they are willing to sell me everything including the mixer and knives and the clothes hamper in the third bathroom - and oh - did I tell you I am moving here because I want my family to embrace a new culture?'<br /><br />(I might have made that last one up.)<br /><br />Anyway, you get the idea. They are less than charming, and I find it hard to watch.<br /><br />Because as it stands now, I tend to root against these people getting a house at all, let alone a four bedroom, three bathroom ocean-side villa in New Zealand.<br /><br />Sincerely yours,<br />(Hope you are not mad about the sleeping part (seriously, not a bad thing!)),<br /><br />Emily B<br />future star of House Un-hunters: Living in one house for fifty years and feelin' fine.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8858201022170300329.post-9497863204562227942011-04-09T18:05:00.001-07:002011-04-09T18:13:53.671-07:00Dear Time Warner Cable:I saw a commercial today in which you were telling all your wonderful customers about how you were changing the line-up of your channels.

Channels.<br /><br />Do you know this is the third time in three months that you have messed up my channels? Do you know that every time you mess with the line-up my TV is messed up for a week while I try to find the Food Network which is now 987 instead of 234? Do you know how annoying it is to search through the 200+ channels(because every channel is tripled on the line-up plus the HD version) trying to 'favorite' Comedy Central so I can watch The Colbert Report?<br /><br />Not cool, Time Warner, not cool.<br /><br />Sincerely,<br />Reading More books in KCUnknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8858201022170300329.post-24175831181497638622011-03-24T16:08:00.001-07:002011-03-24T16:10:19.738-07:00Dear City of Overland ParkYou may not accept my online first aid certification, but I am still gonna claim it for my taxes next year.

You are not really the size those clothes will tell you that you are.<br />Number two - there are a lot of things that a 13 year old can wear that you or I cannot carry off. Trust me when I say this. Examples include T-shirts with Children's Shows' characters on them, jean leggings, and striped sweater socks.<br />Number three - the clothes do not have room for ample-bossomed ladies. Not that I am one, I am just letting them know.<br />Number four - Stacey and CLinton from What Not to Wear and Tim Gunn would not approve of you being in the Junior's Department, and isn't that enough for anybody?<br /><br />Sincerely, <br />a woman who had to learn this lesson for herself.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8858201022170300329.post-73508070843948250572010-10-07T08:08:00.000-07:002010-10-07T08:13:52.396-07:00Dear FacebookI really don't like how you keep trying to covertly get all up in my mix.

I wanted you to know that I actually saw the movie and thoroughly enjoyed it.<br /><br />Sure, you've done some pretty weird things, and said some pretty weird things, and we probably don't even know half of it. But it seems that as a country we just can't seem to get past your antics and see you as a character in a movie.<br /><br />I admit I wouldn't ever really want to talk to you in person, and I might actually be afraid and switch to the other side of the sidewalk if I saw you walking towards me.

Some great, some not so great. In either case, even if I did not like the job, or the job did not like me (I'm looking at you, crazy day spa lady) I learned great lessons. I would like to pass these lessons onto you, in the hope that in doing so, you, a professional in your own right, might be helped in some way.<br /><br />Our first lessons involve this question:<br /><br />'Emily, how do I know if I have accepted a job on a sinking ship, (i.e. a company going under?)' <br /><br />Well - here are some things that should worry you if you see them in your new place of employment.<br /><br />1. On your first day of work, you meet another employee who says "My name is _____, but don't worry about learning it, because this is my last day in this place."<br /><br />2. When you are choosing your workspace, it takes a while because there are several available desks/rooms.<br /><br />3. There is dust on the fake plant in the bathroom. As well as the kleenex box cover and the soap pump. And the picture frame. And nothing to dust with.<br /><br />4. You can never order duplicate supplies for your job. When you ask why, the answer is that there is not enough cash flow for more than one box of staples at a time.<br /><br />5. The owner mans the phones because they haven't hired a replacement for the last receptionist, and nobody can get up enough courage to ask when they will hire a new one.<br /><br />6. Also, when the owner goes to lunch, you have to man the phones because of the whole 'lack-of-receptionist' thing.<br /><br />7. You can plan an hour nap here or there because you are not that busy.<br /><br />8. A lot of your supplies have been bought for yourself by yourself.<br /><br />9. The second bathroom has never been used by anybody, there is never enough spillover from the first one. And even if they wanted to use the second bathroom, they couldn't because the toilet has been broken since before you started working there.<br /><br />10. No one is hired after you, even though people are slowly disappearing left and right.<br /><br />11. You can't throw out the stained towels because then you wouldn't have any towels at all. And no, you can't buy any new ones due to the aforementioned 'cash flow' problem.<br /><br />12. The owner has an office, but is never in there. Mostly because he/she is looking at MySpace and Facebook all day on the front computer.<br /><br />13. When you think of a great marketing strategy to reach out to clients with a personalized mailing, you are told 'Oh yeah, we have some postcards around here somewhere. Maybe in your room? You can look for them.'<br /><br />14. Light bulbs are of no importance. If one of yours blows out, you just shuffle bulbs around from another workspace. Just take one from the pedicure/manicure room, because in the three months you have worked there, nobody has booked a pedicure or manicure. In fact, come to think of it, you don't think there is a person on staff who can do nails at all.<br /><br />and for the kicker:<br /><br />11. A co-worker pulls you aside and tells you in these exact words "This place has been a sinking ship for months now. If I was you, I would be looking for a new job"<br /><br />And that, my friends, is just one of my many ghosts-of-jobs-past. Stay tuned for next week's installment - 'Emily, how can I make working at a call center more entertaining?'

One such noise would be a dolphin call. To an untrained ear, this sounds like a cat fight, or a baby screaming. Neither of those things are relaxing to anybody. I can think of a lot more noises I have heard while listening to 'relaxing' music on our xfm station that are disturbing, but for right now, let's just leave out the screaming dolphins. <br>Sincerely,<br>A massage therapist that is forced to listen to your musicUnknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8858201022170300329.post-34124235328155959732010-03-14T16:09:00.000-07:002010-03-14T16:13:37.526-07:00Dear Yahoo Sports:I appreciate that you give me my sports news in a timely and wonderful manner.

Your poster advertises that you 'Do Good' with a '%' sign in the middle. But in one of the circles there is a five, to get the message across that 5% of your retail sales go to the community. <br /><br />I get it, I understand what you are going for, but it looks like your message is 'Do only 5% good, the other %95 is up to you.'<br /><br />It makes me giggle silently to myself every time.<br /><br />Just looking out for you,<br />meUnknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8858201022170300329.post-6174991724052416252009-11-29T19:52:00.001-08:002009-11-29T19:52:17.798-08:00Dear Dwayne Bowe, of the Kansas City Chiefs:It's too bad that those 'performance enhancing drugs' that you were taking and got suspended for didn't actually enhance your performance. I mean really, if you're going to get caught, at least make it because you had a game with 22 catches for 224 yards and 6 touchdowns, and people are suspicious. <br /><br />Absolutely not shocked,<br />meUnknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8858201022170300329.post-63352774450958615472009-11-29T19:47:00.000-08:002009-11-29T19:48:21.606-08:00Dear Facebook-No, I will not 'become a fan' of Walmart, thank you.<br /><br />-Emily BUnknownnoreply@blogger.com0
