And for that, you get no tip!

:censor: So on Friday I got my nails filled because I actually kept them on this time! But I don’t think I’m going to go back to the place that did them. Why? Because they refuse to stop chattering with each other. What makes it worse is that I couldn’t even join in the conversation because they weren’t speaking in English! I don’t have a problem with people speaking other languages, but when I’m paying you to do something, I’d appreciate it if you at least pretended to pay attention to me. I am more than my ten fingernails!

I just couldn’t believe how rude they were being. When I had my nails done initially, I didn’t tip the guy because he was doing that and I felt it was inconsiderate. But I’m all for second chances, so I went back to them to see if it would happen again. It was by far worse and one woman was chatting on her cell phone while she did someone’s nails. That would seriously tick me off. It’s business, not pleasure. Have some respect for your clients, for crying out loud.

    It’s funny. I hate having my nails or my hair done. I love the way it looks afterward, but I’m no good at making small talk. My nail girl won’t stop talking to me, and I have nothing to say in return. Can we trade?:spin:

    I don’t really want small talk, I just like some sort of talk. Even if it’s only to chat about kids or current events or the color I should make my nails. Just once in a while, lol. I did find a wonderful nail salon not far from my house and the people in there are wonderful! Just enough talking and joking around, not just with me but with everyone. It’s a very friendly little place.

    Blah on the nails. Just cut them short :D No need to go get anything special done :D Right?

    I do like getting my hair done. I have to get it cut when we get back down there. I can’t believe how much it’s grown! :vibes:
