Hi All,
Hope y'all don't mind me butting into your thread like this, but I have a pronunciation story that seems fitting.
I worked as a waitress for a while last year, and had a couple in my section one day who really ticked me off!
The girl asked me for something and I didn't understand what she was saying, so I asked her to repeat herself. She did so, and I STILL didn't understand what she was saying. So I politely said "I'm sorry, I still didn't understand what you said. Would you please repeat it again?"
To this, the girl yelled "I want a SCRAW! Why is that so hard for you to get?" Then she yanked a
straw out of my apron pocket and glowered at me until I walked away. Like it was my fault that she had poor grammar! ugh!
Anyway, thought y'all might find this amusing! I laughed about it later, but I was pretty upset for a while, especially since I wasn't left a tip.
