I went to Ecuador for a solidarity trip and lived in a poor neighborhood and the people there are absolutely amazing. I felt so at home and I don't even speak Spanish.

TOTALLY. I work at a fabric shop--i get so angry at picky old ladies, mothers who let their kids run around screaming, and people upset that they didn't read the sale sign correctly and they want the sale price.

i'm sure i could rant about this all day.

How about Satan's shoe, the heelies?

I'm going to trip one of those kids someday.

What those shoes with the wheels on the heel?

I want to push those children over...*obviously has anger issues*.

No particular reason, mind, I mean, they haven't done anything.

I just want to push them over.

They haven't done anything?!
They terrorize employees and customers alike, running into them and displays, knocking things over, and one day they're going to fall over and crack their skulls and who are the parents going to blame?

certainly not themselves or the kid.

Well, when I say push them over, I'm not talking about pushing them over in shops. Just generally. Go into a school. Push 'em over.

But yeah, my sister's have worked in shops, and they didn't like it. One of them worked in a young children's clothes store.

She hated that job.

yeah comparing the two is just like saying The Netherlands and Belgium are the same because half of belgium speaks the same language (or the other half and France)

but they are totally different

Or like saying Ontario and Quebec are the same country because they... oh. Wait a minute. They are the same country! LOL! I am absolutely sure that had Quebec not been stuck in the center of Canada, they'd have seceded ages ago.
