LOL...I think she wants questions. Lesseee...
So, Liza...how does it make you feel when you have someone "try" to help you but the "help" is unnecessary and in some ways, insulting? For example...went to the store today - they single-bagged a lot of my canned goods, and the bag broke while being transferred into a shopping cart. I asked the woman for another bag. The cashier said to her, "You have to listen to her..." (this particular cashier knows me since I go to that store often.) Then when the transaction was over and she was handing me my change...she said, "Have....a....good....day." UGH.
By the way, I'm deaf, too...I do have the CI, so I'll say I have selective hearing at times.
