Why couldn't the girls support Mel when he was going to move to LA?

[TVFactFan]

it seems like whenever there was a possibility of change that could have them leaving the DINER, they all panicked and worried about-"WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN TO MY JOB"


YOU GET ANOTHER ONE!!!!!!!!-LOL damm, the man was trying to make a change and get married to carol brady and they could think about was-'a new boss??


they was too old for that. this ep proved they had no drive or determination to do ANYTHING but served food and say-"CAN I TAKE YOUR ORDER??-lol

My goof, this is the episode I am watching right now.

Now you know how the rest of us felt abt Flo Evans when she wouldn't let James have a break when it came to money or a good job.

You mean they were too old to be afraid of change.

Especially Alice of all people, she knows what it is like to want to have a better life. Hell, with Mel in L.A. she could have a better chance of visiting Mel or have connections there for her singing career.

Did they say that? I didn't watch the whole episode. Or did they imply it would be hard to get work anywhere else?

Still, it is Phoenix, that is a large city. Don't be fooled thinking it is some tiny little town in Arizona. It is a big city. Mel was always worried abt competitors, so of course there were other eaterys.

Bad writing. The series was getting to the point that they were writing these episodes and having the girls say things that sounds ridiculous. Even Jolene was a trucker and she was now a waitress. She knows what it is to go from a trucker's pay to a waitress' pay, she had to endure the change of switching jobs, so what is the big deal?
