Re: My GM brought her 28lb dog in a sweater to work today

I guess since we couldn't let the thread die, the dog has made a return engagement and so has the sign.  Smiley Frustrated

That poster very obviously posts to get a rise out of people.  I think she is a return poster under yet another name and probably won't be around under this name much longer.  She very much reminds me of the poster who's name was nothing but a bunch of letters beginning with the letter "L" and somewhere in the mix was a "G" and a "V".

Re: My GM brought her 28lb dog in a sweater to work today

I really do love all animals, sometimes to a fault. Any sad story affects me deeply. My husband is the same and that is why we’ve given so many fur babies their “forever home.”  That said, I truly do have immense empathy for anyone who has gone through the trauma you and I both have experienced. (It’s one of those “you just don’t know til it happens to you” ordeals.) Clearly, that was not properly conveyed, and for that, I truly apologize. And as far as the  “sheet situation” goes, after re-reading and re-thinking it, I realized my frustrations, which mainly concerned Prop 65, though it didn’t read as such, were misdirected towards QVC. And it’s not just them. My intention was to rewrite my post altogether, sans the drama😊, in the morning. By then it was TOTALLY gone, and since I was really never able to word it right, I just let it go. I beat myself up plenty when I’m trying to say somethimg and it comes out all wrong. And the backlash was swift, you are right on that. (One odd and a bit scary.) Anyway, it’s been a strained last few days, but a learning experience, as well. I read the words, and  I’m paraphrasing, about “not having to have the last word” and that hit home like a ton of bricks! THANK YOU, whoever you are❣️ And,  @Harvard99, I would like nothing more than to start over. I’m sure you are a lovely and caring person, and I only hope, one day, you will feel the same about me. Have a wonderful rest of your week.

What about service dogs though? They present the same cocnerns about fears, allergies and, despite their cuteness, their Ilack of boundaries and jumping all over you., peeing on floors etc. Service dogs can't be denied access though, nor should they. It is going to be an issue.


@wildlifewitch  Legitimate, legal service dogs are not cute, do NOT lack boundaries, jump all over you and pee on floors.  They are working. They are trained to behave perfectly and ignore others.  It is not going to be an issue because the state and local govt's as well as individual businesses are cracking down on the '"fake" service dogs.


Someone alert the church elders! ALL dogs are cute, service or otherwise! 😱👍🏻😉


@Ifeelwicked  Wrong, not all dogs are cute.  Silly, thoughtless statement.  I guess you've never been bitten by a vicious dog,  aren't you lucky! 


I’m sorry for your misfortune, but I stand by my statement which was certainly not meant to stir unresolved feelings you obviously still have about your unfortunate incident. But, please discontinue your assumptions about someone who you know nothing about. I don’t make silly thoughtless statements. (I do believe all dogs are cute. At least they start out that way. Their treatment or medical issues can drastically change that.) And I have been on the receiving end of a dog bite. More than one, in fact. One was very scary. A bite to my face, and I AM very lucky. We rescue animals and have done so for many years now. And we’ve have run into to ALL situations. Some unfortunate💔, most wonderful❤️ 




 

And you, "can discontinue YOUR assumptions" about ME, "someone you know nothing about" and ''the unresolved feelings I obviously still have about my unfortunate incident".  You know nothing about me, nothing.  Your vitriolic diatribe is presumptuous and unkind, not the slightest bit sincere, believable or even clever for that matter.

 

In addition, it's STILL MY OPINION that your comment about "all dogs" was silly and extremely thoughtless.  So have your opinion and I'll keep mine.  That's how it works in the U.S.A.  Think you can stifle my OPINION, or anyone else's for that matter?   Maybe living in a different country might be more your style. 

 

I couldn't help but notice you deleted the thread you started recently (your extreme rant against QVC and their bed sheets) after multiple people called you out for your over-the-top drama and wild exaggeration over nothing. Seems your posts, in that regard, are very consistent.  JMHO

 


I replied to you on pg 15. It was heartfelt. For some reason  I hit “quote”but it didn’t work. The post is for you.Please read❤️

@Harvard99  Nope!  Although it wasn't the 28 pound dog in the sweater.  This time it was a coworkers puppy.  The ball is rolling and picking up speed....Smiley Indifferent
