Reply To: Ok I have a question for all. Did your mother ever catch you?

“The bright side is she has never come over again without calling first.

Lesson learned.

People can be real characters. At one job, a manager would just ignore me if I just started up a normal conversation, so I quickly learned to get his attention first by calling his name, “Ron…”. After he acknowledged my existence, then I said what had to be said.

You mother didn’t want to be surprised, so she learned how to protect herself.
