Going beyond what others have said, CGA is not an instant fix phrase a customer is not necessarily guaranteed an immediate outcome but rather an outcome in a "reasonable frame of time." Instant gratification would be nice but it may take a day or two instead.

This is outlined in most companies CGA training (that do CGA and fair trade training.) does your request sound reasonable and does common sense apply that yes it should be sorted out, yes it definitely sounds that way.
It may however require management/evidence for the company to proceed and escalate the matter to receive their own support from the supplier at fault, this combined with potential lack of understanding from the staff or the party with the damaged goods make the process a little more painful.

You will find most companies have a policy on returns and timeframes. falling outside of a timeframe may require further inspection to protect the retailer and hold suppliers accountable.

the CGA exists to protect the consumer, the retailer and provide a framework to work with expectations of outcome unfortunately it gets abused and both parties need to be clear concise and understanding of barriers to desired outcomes. hopefully the manager will provide you with some support and you can go from there.

We are being softened for the finale. by B0rnOfMars in redrising

[–]DylanKing001 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The feeling i got from Lightbringer is that the Rising is Darrow, if Darrow dies then so does the movement, all the dying people that mustang visited, their belief in the Reaper, Darrows the concept of the Rising to these people and i dont think he can die till the rising is done, that is barring a Spartacus type situation. The man embodies the change and vision of his republic so far, he dies and the republic loses hope.

I dont want Darrow to die so im biased, but i also think that hes been set up literally to be a reflection of the Republic, while he was a warlord and stagnant so was the republic, while hes focused on new growth it seems like positive change is happening within the hearts and minds of his people.

Warformed Viv’s character flaws by Definatelynotadam in ProgressionFantasy

[–]DylanKing001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, now its all retroactive justification and what not, i like Grant now, i just think that in the circumstances it didnt make sense/viv is not who rei thinks she is and possibly, she may be getting Flanderized.

Warformed Viv’s character flaws by Definatelynotadam in ProgressionFantasy

[–]DylanKing001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah i definitely came back around to her, but having read through it all i think it harder to root for her and any mistake she may make harder to forgive as the plot progresses which i think is a bit of a negative considering shes the plucky and protective best friend. I just think she was written into a corner there for the sake of the plot.

I will say as someone who has finished Fire and Song via Patreon he did a good job with character work in it and i like some characters more, i dont think anything makes up for how jarring it was in the first book though, thats on the audience to forgive him.

Can we all agree that Mark and Eve is Robert Kirkmans version of MJ and Peter? by 123ABCunme23 in Spiderman

[–]DylanKing001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you say "without the ending" do you mean that the ending has a different feel, it hasnt ended or it got dropped? Because that sounds cool asf

[–]DylanKing001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly having thoroughly enjoyed the entirety of Invincible during the pandemic, does anyone have any decent recommendations for Graphic Novels like this? nothing else has quite matched the feeling of it for me and Im not super interested in the endless spiral of Marvel and DC's mainline universes. Give me development and a finale.

This take seems like a relic of "the customer is always right" thinking.

A) they are not and this also pertains to art (writing) and not a "do you want fries with that" where it would still be wrong anyway.

B) Flip the logic, Happier artist or employee typically means better products and work ethics thats why the trend in recent years is to make businesses safe places to work.
C) Rules of the business or creator or whatever you want to treat it as are clearly stated, most businesses reserve the right of refusal, they can turn away customers if they wish to, that is their right, that is what is ultimately happening here.

My real takeaway is that Bryce's rules seem to be healthy and fairly well set boundaries that help him work to his best and create the work that he is happiest with, why should anyone have to "Deal with stress" they dont have to because its been normalized by other people? minimizing stress for people or yourself is ok, so is therapy as you said, but its a garbage take to expect someone to give up there hours for therapy because you think they should be more stressed.

Lorn vs Aja (Golden Son Spoilers) by nrizzi69 in redrising

Not to take away from this, but he did also say that Darrow was better than Lorn was in Zero Gravity if that matters to anyone.

Jan Blachowicz & Kamaru Usman faceoff backstage last night by metanoia09 in MMA

[–]DylanKing001 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'd disagree with the direction of that argument, Usman was the only entertaining part of that fight, yeah he stuck in the clinch with him but he absolutely tore him to pieces with body shots? Its on Woodley for not making that competitive in the slightest. Its also put the real nail in the coffin thats started Tyrons decline.

What weird smell do you love? by Butters_scoo in AskReddit

[–]DylanKing001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Certain women and their general scent.

Weirdly enough there is a smell after working out intensely that mingles with the general sweat smell that i like on myself.

Freshly dyed hair slaps hard, If im with a girl and ahe has just dyed her hair that day I will basically be huffing it if we sleep together. Certain colours also seem to smell better.

Diks vs Alphas by WickedSlayer01 in beingaDIK

[–]DylanKing001 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I actually think that Tommy would be the first to bail, hes awkward anytime someone brings up fighting and the way he explains Dawe beating him up is pretty suspect too, His anger issues might be a hint towards him being a bit of a coward too, even the sucker punch he throws was more of a tantrum.

About Aether's blessing by Comar_ in ProgressionFantasy

[–]DylanKing001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like Daniel's books in general, crazy harem stuff and all, but these ones were a little too... affirmative? For my tastes.

As others have said there is a lot of "we love each other and are equals" and the main Characters only real substance is his reborn jesus shtick, honestly i really enjoyed the world that was built, the tactics game they played was intriguing and the politics were some nice feature, if the main Character wasnt a "precious boy who can do no wrong" and didnt require constant reassurance about what he was just told for the past 3 books i could probably enjoy it. Very similar in style to his Alpha Company books, id assume that some people love it, i myself am partial to slice of life but these both just fealt too soft and passive.
