As for a jerk, the day I emigrated to Canada, I travelled by air (from England) with 6 suitcaes and a German Shepherd in a crate. The crate was deposited near the exit area and my husband had obtaine permission to come through and help me. A custom’s officer had been patting and stroking our dog, who would maybe lick you to death, when a little Hittler came storming over and said we were to shut that dangerous dog up in the crate until such time as we had cleared customs. He made a big fuss even though his colleague had been petting the dog for a while. Welcome to Canada.

We had gone to one of my favorite places in San Francisco, a little trattoria tucked in one of the charming neighborhoods. After boring me with stories of his so-called successes and enjoying a wonderful meal from the chef, our check arrived. He placed his credit card in the guest check folder, and the server went to ring up the bill. Unfortunately, the card he attempted to use was rejected. Instead of handling it quietly, he started yelling and complaining. Every diner in the place was watching my mortification. There was nothing I could do. I would have paid the bill myself but I didn’t have any money with me that night. Needless to say it was the last time I saw that guy, but he certainly left a lasting impression. I never went on another date without enough money to pay the bill and catch a taxi home!
