It's all good - I was at work and just put them on speaker while I got other shit done. I know not to call from home. I'd rather get paid for being on hold. At least he was real friendly once I did get through. We talked for over 15 minutes. 2 minutes on my issue and 13 on other BS. I totally saw why the wait was so long. This happened 2 times before. It's a real crap shoot at your place there. Either they are grumpy incompetent assholes or extremely cheerful competent service providers.

Of course you get what you pay for there. CSR's don't make what they should IMHO.

That number I gave you will send your call directly to a customer service lead.

I slow down and he still stays there so I speed up and he speeds up. Right on my ass.

next time, just come to a stop in the middle of the road. if its a drunk, you can speed off, if its a cop he'll politely stop and find out what you're doing, and you can tell him he needs to write himself a ticket for illegal use of brights.

a store that wants to charge us nearly 1300 bucks to lay roughyl 48 sq feet of marble floor in our bathroom (hint, the store's primary color is orange). now admittedly, i can understand 250 of that price, since we want tiles custom cut for the baseboards, and 250 of that price is for the tile, but still, 750 for labor for 48 sq feet. wtf???

people who live in ohio yet expect us to somehow have a tech out to their house in less than 24 hours to fix their phone even though there are several emergency calls in for places like hospitals and doctors offices.

People in Minnesota that don't get the fact that I don't speak to customers on the phone. Then when they force a tech to let them on the phone anyways get upset because they have no idea what I'm saying to them.

Planning a two-week "inexpensive" driving holiday for this Fall.

good luck with that...I'd suggest 10 miles a day...I bet IAN could help you plan that route.

After looking on-line only to find out that Minnesota has some of the highest gas prices in the nation.

Although I just received an e-mail from up north and she said that it's $3.47 in Superior right now. I suppose the smaller towns are gonna gouge where there isn't as much competition. This feels like 9/11 to me for some reason. Opportunistic BS
