Are you a clerk? If so do people ever tell you to smile? I'll bet female clerks get that more often than guys though.

Nah, I'm not a clerk or a cashier. I actually unload trucks that contain the freight that we stock so it can be sold.

But part of my shift I'm on the floor stocking something or making an aisle look nice, and someone will ask where something directly in front of them is. Occasionally, they'll ask where the bread, coffee, or pasta is, when, under the numbers of the aisle, list those three things as being in an aisle.

Just annoying and headache inducing.

Why the hell anybody in their right mind would have anything to do with this site is beyond me. ::) :P

A rodent has invaded my kitchen. A trap has been set; when captured, the little vermin will be exiled to a site far from here. He's sure as hell not staying in my apartment. :frankiemad:

Fills me full of confidence that I will see another desert lobster (scorpion) in my house during monsoon season.:o

Cassini90125 06-13-2020 05:13 AM

The rodent has been dealt with.

Had a power failure this morning, lasted for about a half-hour. Second one in a week. The last one was caused by vines contacting the power lines; this time there was an animal involved, probably a squirrel (the power company sends out a robocall after every outage, detailing cause and duration). I wasn't doing anything on my computer at the time so nothing was lost but it's still annoying as hell. :frankiemad:

Lol nothing like opening your email to find seven thousand vbulletin database error messages, lol. (It's nothing, it just means the sql database was down for a while most likely for maintenence, this site gets crawled by bots constantly so I get an error email everytime a bot tries to access anything for as long as the database is down.)

Mmm, Borax:

To be blunt, I think that anyone who is stupid enough to consume Borax should be allowed to do so. ::) :P

Cassini90125 12-22-2023 07:29 PM

Damn internet has been out all day. Might be the cold. Might also be that the new modem that Frontier sent me earlier this year is crap. They're getting an annoyed call tomorrow. :frankiemad:

Being alone in forums, bullies, name calling, and violence.

Cassini90125 02-11-2024 11:24 AM

I haz a virus; head and joints hurt, tired, throat is sore, and my temperature is 100.2F/37.8C. Needless to say, I feel like crap. :P

Hope you feel better soon, Cassini!

Thank you, Mew. :frankiesmile: Feeling better but it'll be a few more days before I'm back to my old self. In the meantime, drinking plenty of fluids gets me through the day pretty well. That, plus an occasional shot of NyQuil :cheesegrin:

Dropshippers! Especially the ones that steal pics/listings from Japanese auction/shopping sites and then put them on eBay for triple the price. There's a listing up for one of my fandoms right now, the original seller is selling it for dirt cheap (probably about £5, maybe a bit more with shipping), and an eBay dropshipper has copied their listing and is trying to flip it for almost £50 :/ Not sure how much that is in USD, but you get the idea. It just infuriates me, scammers taking advantage of buyers who don't know/realize they're being significantly overcharged... I despise scammers. People that try and overcharge for their own items, sure, okay - it's your item, you name the price, if it's too much then you probably won't sell it anyway. Dropshippers that try this scam with generic items that you can buy elsewhere are annoying, I don't like them, but at least with those you've got more options to buy the item than just them. if that makes sense.

But these dropshippers that steal listings from Japanese auction sites... they really annoy me since they're deliberately building a "business model" on tricking people, targeting buyers that probably don't know about proxy sites to help you buy directly from Japan and whatnot. It's slimy, I hate it. And eBay won't do anything about it, of course :/ You report it and they go "nothing wrong here :cheesegrin:" and sigh. :wiltyeahright:

Dropshippers don't always charge more. I sell on Etsy, and dropshippers steal our photos and undercut our prices, and then send cheaper versions of stuff to the buyers. But it steals business from the real creators.

Mew 05-26-2024 06:19 AM

Oh man, that sucks! D: Gah. I just hate this kind of trick :/ Sorry that's happened to you.
