hey Tony...

thanks for taking the time to respond, and to do it in a way that didn't make my eyes bleed

yes, it did sound 'racist' to me...I think we often risk that when we use sweeping statements about any ethnic, or other wise identifiable, group of people, as unintended as it may be...add to that the fact that we don't know who is on the other end of the screen, it's always good (in my estimation) to steer away from generalized statements...

I do understand now, much better, what you intended to convey...and, again, I really do appreciate you taking the time to clarify...I imagine it gets to be wearing to have people come into your place of employment and behave as though they are on some kind of field trip...I do hope, that for the most part, folks behave and it's as stress free as any job dealing with The Public can be!

thanks again...all the best

Nina

Sorry if that seemed racist or something.. My main reason for saying that is because they come in, look around and leave.. Very quiet and polite.. Not like the drunk rude ones. Plus, it makes me feel like we are something to see, you know? that we'll be part of thier story when they get home.

Hope that helps.
