Especially now that "they" are mandating you have to serve anyone that walks through your door whether you want to or not.<br /><br />This includes government offices as any one can walk in and start shooting (as Ottawa is currently finding out today) as thugs and jihadists don't read signs very well.<br /><br />Same goes for churches. Back in 2003-2004, we had our worship service interrupted during the middle of the sermon by some lunatic going on about 9/11/01.<br /><br />Other than scaring a few people, this person was harmless, but it could have went the other way. <br /><br />It's funny in a sad way now. I felt the adrenaline dump in me as I recognized this person (a mere instant before she started yelling) from having worked with her a couple of years prior and knew she was subject to acting bizarre without notice.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12967355941603195101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4860897900615196454.post-16196789476387204872014-10-22T07:34:14.463-08:002014-10-22T07:34:14.463-08:00WSF - yep.
