(he wanted to his order split into two bills which I couldn't do because I had other orders in the queue.. if he'd asked when he'd ordered I'd have put it through like that for him and told everyone they were in the same car). So whatever. The next car pulls up and said how rude that person was and asked if I was ok.. I said "yes..." and then burst out crying!

It's ok to need help suga. Everyone needs a support system and it's just a shame that so many of us don't have one naturally in place because we've been let down by people so much. But we should never give up looking to find the people that we CAN trust, because they're so worth it.
Neat story, Cheshire, and we sure do all need as much support as we can get, while giving it where we can, as well, when we are able. I liked your story. Some stuff like that has happened to me in the past as well!!
Thanks for this!
