LOL, this is a very fun story, but rings with truth in every word. I think it could do well in the contest, good luck. It is amazing how some folks don't listen and blame someone else. Excellent writing. Terry.

Some people can't be told. Your words of advice were common sense, and she ought to have known better in each of those situations. Well written story. Best wishes for the contest.

Haha, I enjoyed this. There are some people out there that will always just be the way they are and no advice will ever sway them from that. She's lucky and crazy and seems to have paid the price somewhat, but she'll do exactly the same thing next time. Thanks for the entertaining read, good luck in the contest!

You did a fantastic job packing a lot of information, descriptions, and dialogue into this short story. It is well-written, humorous, and the kind of story that begs to be told. It is also the perfect story for this contest. Best wishes.

I really enjoyed reading it!
Completely truth. How many times do we give advice or small tips, and people just don't follow it because they think they are above us, or for another reason that we don't know.
Well descriptive and with good dialogues, and told in a fun way.
A good, fluid read.
Good luck with the contest.

Oh -- my -- gosh! I would've flipped a lid! What a...bleep. Kudos to you for keeping your cool. I couldn't have done it.

Your story is well-written. I couldn't stop reading it. There's some missing punctuation, but the story is so engaging that I hardly noticed.

Awesome work and good luck in the contest. Blessings to you...

This work has reached the exceptional level

This is really amusing and so like some people who should not be traveling abroad. She flat out asked you for advice and did just the opposite. And then she suggested you should "live a little!" She's the kind of person you love to hate.

    She actually was an very annoying woman. The company was paying for her to work.
