I see you almost every weekend and besides ordering some lunch, I have yet to find the nerve to say anything along the lines of "hi". I think you're super cute and for reasons I can't explain you make me hella nervous. You told me I had a cool t-shirt once and I've been over-thinking it ever since. Say hi sometime! —I'm not hungry I just want to see you

I am in awe of the staff at the veterinary ER in Burnside. You deal on a daily basis with the reality of people who share their lives with animals having to make that final decision. To send their friend on one last journey away from pain and their deteriorating body, you do it with such gentleness, empathy and compassion that is truly humbling and, on Friday, so very much appreciated. We are grateful to you all, and especially to Sophie, who seemed to sense that we were having a truly terrible night and nestled between us for pats and head rubs. The pain we feel at the loss of a beloved cat is the trade we make for the unconditional love of a pet, and while that may be a harsh bargain, it is a just one. Thank you so much for making that last terrible act of mercy as easy as humanly possible. —Puffy's Mom & Dad

Was at the lower deck on Saturday night, security staff are professional and very good and low key. Get it done, keep patrons safe, don't make a scene. Way to go, had a great safe fun time —Out of town visitors

Shout out to the considerate deli counter attendant at Pete's who let me sample 3 different types of meat before cutting a perfect dollars worth of salami for my sammie. You sure provided great customer service for such a cheapskate! —Simple Sandwicher

To the folks working the deli counter at the big chain grocery store that seems to think you can do the work of three regular human beings: you are saints for not throwing rotisserie chicken legs at me every time i come in asking for assistance. I will make it my life's mission to let the world know of your overworked/underpaid plight. Take heart, we will not abandon you. —Wait For The Signs

Most times, in the last few years I wait for a movie to come out on DVD to watch it. I like seeing a movies on the big screen but I've come to abhor the experience of going to the theater. The refreshment staff numbingly shuffling the sheeple through the line with the same ole schtick, upsize this, extra butter that, next please..... $40, $50, $60 dollars!!! omg, the stress of spending. As i say, i like the big screen show but hate the, what feels like; a scam experience to drain my bank account as much as possible. IF i did go out to see a movie i'd typically go to the crossing. WOW! no longer! That's all changed now, thanks to the BLIP SB Theater! I happened to get talked into seeing a movie on the weekend with some friends (not that 50SoG drivel). Reluctantly, i agreed. At the crossing it's like being a disaster victim waiting for FEMA to help; The long slow lines, the poor service and feeling like i was worth nothing more than the money they could squeeze out of me. It was busy when we showed up with people lined up almost to the door. After a minute or so, i noticed there was one young man who kept calling out for the next guest. I'm always suspicious of a line that moves to fast. i don't like to wait forever in line but i don't like to be shuffled through without much care either. Typical to my crossing experience. However, the young man that met us (initials RA) was probably the best serviceman I've ever come across. He met us with a smile, some small talk about the movie we were seeing and made the refreshment purchase a delight. He was funny, charming, and kind. I saw the customers served by RA before us, they had kids. Obviously RA has kids as well. he was engaging to the children and parents all while serving them their food. This staff member, imo, is the very best investment the theater ever made. Even if the theater went broke, had to show one movie all day everyday, in a tent, RA would make you feel as though you were lucky to be there and see it. Once seated and tucked into the show, i realized that i was oddly happy and enjoyed just sitting there waiting for the start of the movie. I'm usually a little sour from the experience but, not this time. I didn't care that i just spent half a days wage on refreshment. RA made me feel entitled and happy to be there. I don't know how he did it but i do know that it was a genuine experience. (i've worked in sales my whole life and you can't bullsh*t a bullsh*tter). I'm now a scene member, getting discounts and earning free movies and will only go to the BLIP theater and will only go to the station with this fine human behind it. I am a changed person and i'm proud to say I love love love going to the show again. Thank you RA. You are the Best!!! And to the management at SBT, Give this man a raise, either money or position or BOTH!!!! If more staff were trained like this, no one would rent a movie again. —We all end up end up
