P-S-Y-C-H-O!!!!!!!!!!!!
First off, before I go on with the event that happened this evening, let me read the disclaimer..........
"I'm so sick of people that make threats, and don't follow through with it!!!!"
Sadly enough, the "I'LL TAKE YOU TO COURT." threat is fucking OLD, TIRED, and played out. Give me one legit reason why and if you say it, YOU BETTA MEAN IT.
So Vilma called me up for a job tonight, replacing a hard drive on a computer at this storage company that will remain nameless for the time being. Simple, takes all of one hour or less for me to do. Right?????
So when I showed up tonight, I had the nice older lady sign the waiver explaining that when the hard drive is replaced that I have to take the old one back with me. She then told me that the manager said that they could not do that. I was like, OK, so I called my boss to see what I needed to do. Then I explained to her that I had to take the old one back with me or I would not be able to perform the job. So, like me, she looked kinda stressed and was like, "OK, but I'll have to call the manager who's my daughter."
Meanwhile, I looked inside the crap GATEWAY computer they had and saw that the cable connecting the drive was cracked and then when I went to pull it off, it busted. I then told her that it probably wasn't her drive, but the cable. So then I called the service center to report the problem. But meanwhile she was telling me that she needed it fixed tonight or her manager would get extremely upset with her and that he was not easy to talk to.
The service agent I was dealing with told me I could go and pick up the cable, and if it worked then they would close the case, if not, then I would have to send the old drive back and then they would have to send me a cable which would be another 2 to 3 days.
Nightmare so far, right???
So the nice old lady gave me a $20 bill and off I went near the mall for the cable where I bought my old computer from. The guys in the store recognized me and were really cool. I told them I needed this cable and the owner gave one to me for FREE. YAY, love those guys. So off I went back to this certain no name storage company.
The nice old lady had the manager on the phone explaining what I was doing. She then wanted to talk to me, so I was like, "OK."
I was understanding and respectful as this freakin c_nt explained to me that I could not take their old drive with me as she was afraid of identity theft and that the information off of the DEAD drive would be hacked. I explained to her that it was part of the procedure for me to take the drive back with me or the warranty would not cover. She then rants and raves that BEST BUY sucks and how she has told everyone she knows not to shop there. Of course, I had to agree with her as I tell her, "I DO NOT WORK FOR BEST BUY." Then she tells me that if I take the hard drive out she was going to have to get some good ol boys down there and give me an ASS WHOOPIN. I'm like, "WHAT?????" And then she tells me that she's just joking. Meanwhile I'm thinking to myself, "WHAT?????"
I call Domingo up and let him know what's happening, by this time, the nice old lady behind the desk get's a call from the owner of this dump. He get's on the phone with me and tries to play LET'S MAKE A DEAL and told me he would pay for the drive to keep it. I tell Domingo on my cell phone that the guy wants to pay cash. So he looks up the price of it, tells me to tell it to him and see if that would work and even tacked on $50 for me to have. The guy says he'd pay for it and that he would take BEST BUY to court, go in their store and cause a scene, and all sorts of other bullshit. When he got finished with his rant, I then explained to him, "I DON'T WORK FOR BEST BUY" and thought to myself, yeah buddy, you go make yourself look like a 5 assed monkey in the middle of that store. LOLOLOLOLOL
So the nice little old lady writes out a check for me and I finished the job and left the old drive with her. By this time her husband comes downstairs and offers me some coffee, I thanked him a LOT. And as I was leaving, the older lady slipped me the $20 she gave me earlier and was like, "I'm so sorry you had to put up with this, this is for your troubles." which I thought was very nice.
4 hours later, and extremely stressed and tired, I'm back home. THANK GOD!!! And I realized something, THANK GOD, I'm not one of those people. Thank fucking GAWD. It's so sad that people don't listen the first time around and then make threats that they can't keep. Just to make themselves look high and mighty, but to TOWNE LAKE STORAGE, you guys (with the exception of the nice old lady whom I feel for) look like a bunch of inbred Jerry Springer watching, sister fuckin, no tooth, redneck, ambulance chasing idiots!!!!!!!
