You know what really grinds my gears...

Postby mikey » Wed Nov 11, 2020 4:56 pm

anyone that uses these phrases:

"mad" as in "wow you at those tacos mad fast"
"for days" as in "he's got jokes for days"
"queen/king" as in "keep killing it queen!!!!"
Yes. Always hated that. Never used it unironically.
Don't mind this one.
Don't really care for it and have never used it unironically...but it doesn't bother me as much as "mad"...

Amazon Subscribe and Save. Part of my latest cat food order has not arrived, and when I check on it with Amazon, it's because the items have been out of stock for over a week. How about you NTP66s actually notify me so that I can plan accordingly?

A lot of sites are abandoning RSS feeds because they want follows on Twitter, Instagram, etc. I get that. What I don't get is why so many sites are unable to take the minimal courtesy of posting something in the feed saying it will no longer be updated.

I have an LL Bean order coming this week, and the original delivery date is tomorrow. Knowing UPS delivers later in the evening, especially this time of year, I created a UPS My Choice account to see if I could hold the delivery as we are heading out of town. Sure, but they charge $10 per package unless I get their annual Premium My Choice service. So absurd.

I was supposed to have 2 packages delivered yesterday via USPS. our regular carrier is out this week and I think the substitute carrier just skipped the entire neighborhood because it was 6:00PM. tracking says packages are available for pick up at the post office yet there is no notice in my mailbox. neighbors say they received no mail yesterday too.
how frakking lazy can you get????

Must be something in the water. I was supposed to get a 5 lb bag of bird seed yesterday. It arrived at the post office after the carrier left and tracking said it was "delivered" and available for me to pick up at the post office. I have no interest in doing that and assumed they'd deliver it today. Nope, still at the post office awaiting customer pick up. WTF?

I splurged and purchased an espresso maker from Amazon that was $75 off yesterday. Well, today it is a "deal of the day", and $90 off. Yet Amazon has some archaic policy that they don't make price adjustments, but they would "this one time". How is that a standard policy in this day and age? I guess if your company is as large as Amazon, you can do whatever you want.

They always say that, when in reality they will do what's best for you 100% of the time. Perhaps not on the first chat with support, but the second.

So they said that I needed to contact them again after I receive the item to get the $15 back, should I not wait and contact them again?

I'd just chat with somebody else and not wait, personally.

Wow, this agent is telling me that Amazon has some internal Black Friday policy where Amazon will automatically credit price differences within 7-10 business days. But it's not on their website anywhere, seems like a bunch of bull.

Send me your Amazon creds and I’ll take care of it for you for a nominal fee...
