You left out designer nail and hairdos, tanning salon and gyms LOL Just the other day I was at the local dollar store which no doubt pays minimum wage with no benifits for part time worker. The girl behind the counter had the most elaborate nail and hair design I ever saw, she never acknowled me as a costumer, just told me how much it cost and took my money...It was apparent from her speech in that short exchange (and watching her with the other customers) that she spoke english however it was ghetto speak with attitude that I was disturbing her day. Mind you there are no ghettos around here. How this is my fault and why I need to redistribute to her is beyond me....poor hardly... bad choices indeed....
