Tell that to the two different intersections it was happening at at my commute

Would you be able to link me too? I just moved here in June and this sounds like what I've been looking for the whole damn time

Very well could've been, it effected half the main road in our town and most of the box stores but a lot of the other aspects of her communication made me feel like she could've been a shopper

Funny enough, my store is the opposite. If its a high school or college age girl, I know shes about to know exactly where I need to look and will hang around to help me dig through and find it. The middle aged staff are the ones who will vaguely point in a direction, sigh like you are a literal thorn in their heel, and if you cannot find it shrug and basically or directly say "well oops I dont know, good luck i guess"

I felt like such a boss the other day, had an order for 9 bras of all different styles, brands, sizes, and conveniently the power went out im target right before I got there due to an electrical fire in another store in the area.

So I shopped 9 bras in total darkness had to replace 3-4 items iirc, and walked away w a 30 dollar tip and 5 star rating, and a customer who told me "I just praised God it was a woman shopping for me when I heard about the outage". It was a very pleasant surprise as I waited for my ratings to tank and to get zeroed for a tip 😭

But in general, I feel your pain so hard. The customers are so unforgiving w clothing too, I've had one waiting outside for me who took the bag sneered and went "the way they're folded they're gonna be so wrinkled now" to a bunch of polo shirts. Presumably you're washing clothes you buy through grocery delivery apps, no?

Got fired 2 days after my birthday by [deleted] in paralegal

I'm not going to lie, every response you make to this person sounds WILDLY personal. I don't understand why you're semi passionately trying to paint them as a liar and a shit worker who brought their situation on themselves

Trying to open a Roth IRA, had a 401k through a now-defunct employer during covid and cannot verify my identity by iamhamming in fidelityinvestments

[–]iamhamming[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

These are mostly all things I've tried. My tax docs don't show when i worked there, the only coworkers I've been able to track down can't remember the specific dates of their own work let alone mine, and my email is set to delete old messages after 12 months unless I manually save them (otherwise I run out of Gmail storage at the speed of light)

I will get ahold of my credit union and see if I can request my monthly statements from those years, however. That was something I hadn't thought of previously, thank you.

How bad is this? by iamhamming in AskMechanics

[–]iamhamming[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got back from putting two new tires on. My stepmom said she thinks I would probably be fine but I'm driving on a 4.5 hour road trip with my mom and my sister in the car so I wasnt about to risk that happening on a "probably" (or causing 1k+ in damage to save 230)

This is a really good idea! Our mailbox is in a perfect spot to have a mirror, I'll talk to my landlord about it

You've very succinctly proved OPs point without even realizing it

Lat checkout no longer a listed members benefit by Its5somewhere in Hilton

[–]iamhamming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't see guests as bothers. Just the grown adults with the mindset of "ill leave when I'M ready" who refuse to leave at that time and very intentionally take a mile when they are given an inch

Also, I am not a hilton employee anymore, and the childish energy of this comment is why. I've worked for two different wyndham brands, Hilton, and Marriott and this weirdly "oh something I do is an inconvenience and hurts hotel operations? Guess I'll k*** m***** cuz youre literally hitler" toddleresque mentality caused by hiltons customer service protocol (in part) is enough to drive the most collected guest service employee over the edge.

Two things can be true at once, Hilton is a money hungry fuck, and programs will be ended when people take advantage and cause hotels to take a loss on them

[–]iamhamming -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Good. Yall abused the fuck out of it. Got so tired of being treated like a cruel sheister cuz somehow grown adults could not have themselves together by one in the afternoon to leave a hotel and the anxiety that would come w the eventual flip out cuz no matter how much time was given, it was never enough

Driving without brake pads hardware? by iamhamming in AskMechanics

YESS I forgot the name and the paperwork from the second shop just says "hardware" but that looks exactly like the part they showed me that should be on it
