'Ya Gotta Larf' : Surveys ... has this happened to you?

 


I'm sure many readers will recall the 'Ya Gotta Larf' cartoons that my beloved Eddie used to post, like these here and here

I saw this cartoon recently on blogging friend Mari's blog, and thought it warranted a 'Ya Gotta Larf' post. It's happened to me - has it happened to you?

All the best Jan

Ha - I laughed again! I had my annual physical yesterday and today got a survey for that office. :)

This is very true. Most of the surveys are pages long as well

Hi dear Jan, thankfully not, but thank you so much for the smiles! :)

I recently brought a new car and Subaru expected me to fill out a survey--I quit after 20 minutes and was not even 1/2 through it.

Oh, I love the Pickles, they're always good for a 'larf'.

I never know how to respond to these surveys! Mostly I try to ignore them unless it is a local business that would benefit from a good word. I try not to be a 'Karen', and complain, even though that is my name, which is another subject altogether! xx K

It seems you can't do anything these days without being asked to complete a survey.

It happens every day. I took a cab the other day, the driver asked me to survey him and then he surveyed me!

That's funny...I do remember seeing it before...and yes, it does happen to me...sometimes before I get home from my doctor appointment, the survey is already in my inbox! lol

jabblog said...

I know that feeling well, and the 'how did we do?' forms. I laughed at the cartoon and then looked back at the ones you linked, which made me laugh even more. Thank you, Jan.

Funny. When I read the title of this post it made me think of your Eddie right away. :)

The Happy Whisk said...

Hahaha, stop giving me homework. I love it.

The appliance store is a family-owned one for 47 years and they have a nice big back room with S&D models. They test each one before selling as well. Really love that.

Happy weekend.

All the best Jan

Yes it has, every time we go to the doctors we have to feel out a survey a day later. It does seem like there are more and more lately.

I ignore all those surveys. They have become totally ridiculous.
