Service
February 06, 2009 | 04:44 PM

Isn't there poor service everywhere? Or does it only pertain to Maui? I can go to just about any place in the world and get poor service. Maybe it was a bad day. Maybe they didn't like you and your mom. Maybe the service worker was working her third job in order to feed her family and was tired that day. Maybe waiting on tourists is a difficult job. I grew up in a tourist town and we hated tourists there. I lived in New Orleans and we hated tourists there. I lived in San Francisco and we hated tourists there.
So Pam, why do you think you are so special? Why do you think that you deserve to have a relaxing vacation? Is it our problem or responsibility to make your vacation wonderful? I don't care if you're on vacation or not, if you act like a tourist, you're annoying.
