The boss is a good boss but pretty inexperienced. She doesn't have to manage alot of people. It's largely a self-run place.
I don't honestly need this job. I could start subbing now and walk away from it. I do it cause it's fun and I did it previous years after the college kids go back and before they drop to just weekends.

Ask her to talk slower. Tell her you want to write it down because it sounds like great stuff to post on your internet discussion board.

I always say "take it to the source" - confront her. And then flush her fish down the toilet?

She doesn't have a cat, remember?
Maybe she should get her a cat as a present, and then run over it??

Dont wait for an answer. Just go on about your business.
And if that doesn't work, maybe a good b**** slap upside the head.
Ask her if She has a Case of the Mondays???

Dear Captain Flock,
Have several shots - beer can cause colon cancer - attend numerous concerts and phlockings - and call me when you are no longer hungover (in a few years or so).

That's funny. Can I vote. I live on a beach town. Most folks get it. We've refined the buffett lifestyle here.
Our hs wrestling coaches wear hawaiian shirts to every meet. Now they've ordered new uniforms with red, white and black hawaiian print going down the sides of the uniforms to match the coaches hawaiian shirts.

If you like you're boss, you'd be doing them a big favor by calling this to their attention because it sounds like the kind of behavior that could ruin a small business like this. If your boss is smart, (s)he won't say you told on her, but will say something like:
"It's been brought to my attention that you've said some inappropriate things about customers...such as (examples are key). These types of comments are not appropriate because they are negative, demeaning, and (whatever else) and do not reflect the atmosphere and experience we want our customers to have here. Whether or not these comments are made directly to the customers, they are not appropriate. Please refrain from talking to or about customers or our business in this manner; instead, focus on showing our customers a friendly and positive attitude."
Then s(he) needs to make a written note of the conversation and date it.

Personally, I would hire Jeff Gillulli, and have him hit her in the knee cap every time she says somthing negative.
