  The one I use now is a Melitta, I paid $2.99 for at the mall years ago. I
got two, one to replace the one I broke and one as a spare, that's been
sitting on the shelf since then.

   I like my coffee straight, just black.
   I got a coffee at some FF place once and ordered it black.  The woman at
the counter asked if I wanted cream in it.  No, just black.  Sugar? No, just
black.

  What I hate is when I have a mouthful of food the server will ask a
question and all I can do is shake my head. 
  And it happens no matter were I am eating.

  I've never been a breakfast eater.  Just not hungry in the mornings as a rule.

  I was a member of a union only once and hated it.
  I worked for a few months at a Kroger in the produce department.  All
employees had to join the union after 30 days.  No one other than a manager were
full time.  One would to be getting close to 39 hours when a manager came by
telling them to leave.
   Some people were working only four hours a week.  Just enough to pay
your union dues and nothing much else.
