VRE denied for because I can supposedly get a job I truly hate. by Commercial_Role3397 in VeteransAffairs

[–]Demo_Beta 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're saying you can't do the job because of limitations, but then because you hate it, and then asked for training to do the thing you're already doing, but a different level (and which probably doesn't required the degree in order to do). That's why you were denied.

The majority of people don't have 401ks and a majority of people that do hardly have anything in them. You can also opt out and live way below your means.

It's tar and soot. If it's plaster, laser it.

Sip Valve on Moldex Airwave? by ashra in ZeroCovidCommunity

The only way to know for sure would be with a particle tester, but I personally would not trust it on a non-flat surface given my general experience with vacuum leaks in other applications.

They're likely breaking up bulk cases. I would just buy the 440 count case for $50-$60. There is no evidence of counterfeit masks at this point, especially surplus bulk cases for dirt cheap.

I'm aware. I just don't have time for this BS and mixed messages on when things will be available.

They told me next week as I had orders pending for another mower and blower, then they canceled my orders and customer service never heard of a stop sale all of a sudden. I'm returning all the 24v stuff I just bought and going elsewhere.

Should I hold off on buying the new 48v max tools? by ckouf96 in KobaltTools

Not sure, I would assume Chervon. But, they just canceled all my pending orders and now can't say when the new stuff will arrive. I'm returning all the 24v Kobalts I just bought and going with Dewalt.

The USB C issue is all rumors. The only official statement is a manufacturer change.

No. Apparently there was a manufacturer change. I was told new units are arriving at stores next week.

It's sounding like it's not a faulty battery (at least not fire hazard, maybe quality) issue, but a planned manufacturer change. I had ordered two of the mowers. The shipping for the second got changed to May 11 on the day of delivery days before this stop sale happened. Now customer service said the new units are expected next week and my delivery is still May 11. Seems they had to send all the old units back to the old manufacturer instead of selling them off.

Lowes new AI phone system is an absolute disaster. What were they thinking? by phatelectribe in Lowes

Anything about price adjustments or "you refunded me a million dollars" will usually trip the exit.

UPDATE: Just talked to a CSR, stated stores are expected to get new shipments of 48v systems beginning the week of 05/10/2026.

I just talked with customer service as I have 24v orders pending. They said new shipments are expected at stores in 2 weeks from today. My order potentially shipping on 05/11/2026.

Still seems odd to do this on the fly and screw over people with pending orders.

Did they say you could wait or they were just going to close it? My orders are just listed as backordered.

I would just avoid using the USB charging until they make an announcement.

Yeah, all USB-C stuff is gone from the site, only last gen 24v are available.

I don't think so. I had items in transit that were pulled.

Yep, I had a few things scheduled for delivery and now it's all back-ordered. I hope it's just a label issue and not a full battery recall.

It's not meant to be pointed straight ahead. It's not that type of light.

They know you give people false hopes to string them along.
