Hi (((Bones)))))) Ami
Hi, ((((((Ami))))).
I was at the local library a little while ago using their
Wi-Fi. Because the library has only ONE electrical
outlet available for laptop users, I've made it a
habit of bringing my own surge suppressor and
share it with others who ask if they may plug
into mine. I also let them know how long I
will be there so they won't be caught by
surprise when it's time for me to leave.
This time, I found I had to assert myself as I
was about to shut off my laptop and start
packing up to come home. As I was about
to start the shut down procedure on my
computer, this guy walks up, and without
even asking, GRABBED my surge suppressor!
I commented: "Excuse me! I'm getting
ready to pack it up to leave." He almost
SNARLED at me and tried to INSIST that
the surge suppressor BELONGED TO THE
LIBRARY! I calmly corrected him by saying:
(1) the library NEVER provides surge
suppressors and (2) I brought THAT ONE
from home and it will go BACK HOME
WITH ME! The guy backed off!
Some people are just UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!
