It's the right thing for me.

But oh, am I getting tired of dealing with meal issues. Tonight I went to our dining room at 4:30pm. By 5:30 no one had come by the table to even take drink orders, let alone food. I finally gave up and went to my room for leftovers, as there was somewhere I needed to be at 6pm. And I was really looking forward to the lasagna on the menu. I'm still hungry.

Whatever happened to things starting on time? Earlier today, at an afternoon entertainment thing, the performer started some fifteen minutes early. What am I missing?

1. did you ask the management why that is?

you know, the people in charge?

2. I'm trying to do that.

Alas, management works eight to five with weekends and holidays off. Meanwhile, I've sent a strongly worded email to the director, and will pop into her office tomorrow.

3. excellent

one of the main reasons for such behavior is staffing - for example, high turnover - if you chat with the food workers, they may clue you in

4. Maybe you should

Maybe you should tell them you have decided to make your payments to them with the same timeliness or reduce your payment by the number of irritations they bring upon you.
