STUPID FREAKING PEOPLE!!!!!!!
This is my vent post for the day and it's not even 9 am here yet.

I went to the Gap last night to buy a couple pair of pants. I saw a sale sign above the rack of pants. Stupid me thought that the sale sign meant that the rack below the sign were also on sale! Oh no, said the little manager person. Just the pants ABOVE the sign. Did the sign say this? NO.

Then I get an email today from an Ebay seller from whom I bought something. The email said that the item I had purchased was returned to them because of bad address. They completely ignored the fact that I had emailed them with the correct address and put the correct address in with the payment. Then they had the nerve to try and charge me for postage to send the damn thing to me. I told them to either send me my money back or send the item to the correct address and suck up the postage themselves!

Stupid fucking people!

God, I want to go back to bed!

1. Sorry, buddy...
I hate it when I get hit with some stupid shit early in the day. It just screws the day up for me.

As for the Ebay seller:

2. eBay
I bought a T-Shirt from this asscrack who emailed me 3 times for my size. I emailed him back 3 times with my size and he never shipped.

I hate giving bad feedback, too.

3. But sometimes...
a good thing happens.
Went to a Sperry factory outlet store.
The Topsiders I liked were on sale - $19.95.
Got to the cash register and it rang up $39.95.
Whoa...I thought these were $19.95. That's what the sign said.
The clerk looked and said yeah it does, but that's the shoes next to the sign, not below it. I need to move the sign. I'll let you have them for $19.95

:-)

4. when I worked retail
that's what we were instructed to do.

if the sign was even the bit misleading, we gave customers the benefit of the doubt and sucked it up

The store lost an $80 sale.

6. I had a good buy last night.
I couple weeks ago I tried on this skirt & blouse at a local clothing store and I loved it, but too much $.
Well Tuesday I received a mailing that they were having a sale. I didn't hold out much hope that what I wanted would be on sale and if it was they wouldn't have my size left. Well, low & behold it was and they did. So I got an $85.00 outfit for $22.00. Oh happy day. I wore it today and have many compliments on it. I love wearing new clothes I got on sale.

7. You and Mrs. t.
The only thing she likes better than a bargain is a bargain that's been marked down.
Ever been to Filene's basement in Boston?
Every two weeks they mark the clothing down 25% until it hits 75% off.
Mrs. t. got several outfits by going back, week after week, until what she wanted was at rock bottom.
It's kind of like Russian roulette, because what you want may get sold at 25 or 50% off.
She has nerves of steel.

5. Ebay is crap!
I will NOT deal with those assholes ever again.

Seems some jerk hacked my account there 2 years ago, along with some other peoples' accounts.
The hacker proceeded to sell a bunch of people stuff he never had.

To make a long story short, the guy has never been found, (AFAIK,) I had to explain to the people cheated in my name that my account was hacked,(Ebay never contacted them,) and the icing on the cake:

Ebay blamed ME for the hacking!

After I threatened a lawsuit, Ebay sent me some money, but with the agreement I never do business with them again.

FUCK EBAY! :mad:
