Not to infer you are, but related, my own sweet Mrs Hill is native Cantonese speaker. They do have words with r's they pronounce well, it's odd that she has the problems with where they're placed in our language. Her English is something I've worked with her a lot on, she's a clever girl but folks who can't understand you feel uncomfortable and some think you're not bright if you can't speak well.

Yeah, I've worked in department stores too, and they paid very little, but you did get an employee discount so you could give your pay right back to them!

I "floated" at a Major High End department store in my yout' and one day I was tasked with unboxing costume jewelry pieces and matching them with the inventory sheets, which included the cost and retail prices. For some of the pieces there was a 4000% markup. I did not just make a typo. Never pay retail, dolls.

Last time i bought pants, I got 2 pairs on sale at 100 NKR, old tags read 10 times that. I doubt they sold them at a loss too.

leads viewers behind the wheel of a car into Jersey City with scenes of the tower, all to the tune of the theme song from The Sopranos, “Woke Up This Morning.” Peking ducks in the swimming pool!
