Well the problems I has having with these prompts is that it kept putting me to the beginning of the menu! I was so burned out that I sent an email. But I did call the next day and got a live person–seems there was a mix up in communication on what items where being charged shipping. No big deal but I was tired of being cut off, of getting different order numbers every time this woman opened her mouth and also getting different amounts. They sent me an email to rate them–boy am I going to have fun! 👿

Congradulations skigod–that is a beautiful piece! Glad you got her 😀
There seems to be a lot of hardship/sadness on here lately with people having financial problems, losing beloved pets, problems with employers, medical problems and a host of other things. This economy is getting the best of a lot of us and even though some of us may not have that many problems, it still takes it toll.
In July, my coworker is going on vacation for 3 weeks and I was to get a full paycheck while she was gone. They had cut us a day each week to help cut overhead. Well yesterday, my employer informed me that he would like for me to take that nonpay day even while my coworker would be gone. Was looking forward to the extra money but I can see where he is coming from. I see the balance in the checkbook as well–part of my job.
Well I also had problems with my keyboard last night and had to order another one. Damn, what a frustrating experience because I kept getting cut off and the person had to call me back and in the end, the total isn’t what it should be because their system was under going maintenance. I was told to call their customer service to get this taken care of. Their customer service phone number has promts that are lously–it tells you to say your order number and then says it doesn’t understand you and puts you to the very beginning. I finally just emailed them with my concerns.
All this is minor and will take care of itself–the amount in question was just shipping fees that the sales person was trying to waive but couldn’t because of the maintenance going on. This is a Friday night, it’s been hot and it’s going to be hot this weekend with temperatures in triple digits. All in all I got a terrible headache that I still have today. I think it’s just all the frustration of money, things not working right and the toll of all these negative things coming upon us.
So I guess I’m venting in my own way and sharing the anxieties and frustrations with everyone else in this Windstone community. Nothing major or devastating but it makes my day suck nontheless.
Feel bad for everyone not feeling or doing so well here lately. I’m a little out of sorts myself tonight. I hope you feel better soon–believe me–we all have our little trials going on right now. So hang in there and were are all here for you!
I’m sorry DM that you are having so many money problems right now. Everyone seems to be in this same rut–property isn’t worth as much and you have repairs to be made and don’t have the money. I know people who are really hurting right now and this economy is starting to take a toll on a lot of people. Glad you can vent on here and get it off your chest. It doesn’t bring you the money but it sure helps.
Along with the lashings–he must be forced to write 100 times “I will not use Windstones as a book rest.’ 😛
That’s okay…so glad to see another forum member make it to ‘social’. Yeeeeaaaa, we are no longer ‘lurkers’! 😀
The best to you on your show and the wedding! Post pictures if you want! We’ll be waiting to hear about it all! 😀
