You have a problem and it’s up to you to figure it out, a customer said to me. She’s right and I am trying. She didn’t like at all how I asked and I pleaded with her to tell me a better way of asking; that’s when she told me it’s my problem to figure out what to say.

Site chronicling the development of a new neighborhood bakery in Washington DC. Edith Hollander Furstenberg 1910 – 2015. Mea Culpa →. February 25, 2015. Back in the ‘90s I knew someone who owned a delicatessen on the east side of Manhattan. He was very successful, his store always crowded as food places can be in New York, Paris, and San Francisco.
