Ramblings
More disappointment
With the world of the dollar
All hail economics
Even if there's censorship-
It's not like those queers will care.
I'm feeling more than a bit let down with the large corporations in today's world, and Amazon.com's latest thing has REALLY surprised me. Part of me is debating sending back the books I received just last week with a note, but I realize the handful of bucks it took me hours to earn to pay for them isn't going to mean shite for the poor warehouse sod tasked with inventorying it. And they don't read their feedback on cancelled orders ( I know, I've written long missives).
So... I guess it's offering emailed links to the Rachel Maddow show and sending angry emails to Amazon's customer service, instead.
And Google bombing, because now I know what that is and I feel like I need a little rainbow shooting star and happy chimes. "The More you know. o/`"
I have to wait until tomorrow to hear back from Aromaleigh (who are being awesome about all of this, and I feel bad that my first-time-customer-ness is tainted by this whole kerfuffle), but I didn't pull any punches (or many four-letter words) in my complaint on usps.com - if they've "never" had a problem with this carrier, they're going to have one now, because I don't appreciate my $50 order being marked as delivered and the carrier LYING about it fitting in my locked mailbox. Dude, it fit through the slot or it didn't. If it did, it goes into the locked box and I'm the only one who can open it. It isn't there. Therefore, it didn't go in and you're a lying, lazy sack of shit. Mom and I have decided that even if it belongs to the neighbors and winds up in our box, we're driving to the post office to formally let them know it was mis-delivered mail, now. Fuck with our mail and we fuck with your error rate, dude. Because really? A magazine getting mis-placed once in a while makes sense. An insured package with delivery confirmation? Someone JUST MIGHT be paying attention to that - screw with the small bits if you must. Not the big ones.
My mood about all of this is REALLY not helped by the throbbing sinus headache I've had all weekend, which antihistamines, sudafed, and advil have made NO dent in. Rrrgh! I hate allergies.
