E-mail filter and Chinese waitresses
The e-mail spam filter is slowly learning. All the pharmaceutical e-mails are getting sent straight away; now it’s mostly the “Busty Asian [etc, etc.]” mails that the filter has to figure out…
Speaking of Asian chicks…I learned an important lesson today.
Today my friend and I went to a Chinese buffet, and my friend reminded me that there was the potential for a pretty waitress to, er, introduce myself to. After determining that the women there were out of my league (ie, 40-50 years old and likely married), I set my primary focus to eating and trying the few new foods that this buffet had.
After getting seconds, we were chatting a bit, and a voice behind me indicated a desire to pick up the used dishes. Without thinking I brought the dishes towards the purple-clad arms near my right shoulder. 15 seconds later, my friend said, “What about her?”
Instantly, I realized none of the out-of-my-league employees had worn purple. Whipping my head around, I tried to catch a glimpse of the alleged potential target, but by then it was too late. So my next trip to an Asian restaurant, I will be sure to sit with the back to the wall, so as to not miss any potential opportunities.
(DISCLAIMER: I don’t really go around to restaurants trying to meet women. But the occasional waitress or cashier will be, er, especially friendly and attentive. You never know.)
Out of curiousity… do you happen to mention your website on your resume?

um, if you do, please let me know ’cause I freely advertise my exceedingly poor work ethic and this stuff gets around
You know, all my single friends are men. If I find a worthy candidate, I will send you a picture. That is how carlos and I met.

@Allen: I’m not that stupid. Who do you take me for, D.B.? (The other D.B….)
@Annie: Actually, during this transition period, I haven’t been looking. The thought’s cool, though.
