Survey Says

These days everything you do or say online, or even in person, sparks an immediate survey asking how satisfied you were with whatever it was you just did. It's nuts! Also annoying, like we have nothing else to do but give them free marketing data? I remember when you had to pay for that kind of thing and also were paid to participate in a survey. Now it's just assumed you will tell anyone all they need to know in order to improve their services and thus wring more money from the public.

I began wondering if that survey thing could somehow work to my benefit. So starting today I will be sending surveys out to any and all people who come by for a visit, stay for a meal, use the bathroom or whatever. That way I can improve and maybe even get to a better spot in Heaven than I ordinarily would. You know, closer to God or something. 

Following is the one I have prepared for this Thursday when my husband and I will host two family members and a guest for Thanksgiving. (Please don't tell the Governor of New Jersey.)
