Default ah! finally! /rant.

so february 25th I ordered these things, stupid weathertech window visors...

they don't say on the website that they're backordered 2-3 weeks. of course they are.

also you call customer service 2 weeks out wondering 'hey, when are those coming in? it's been 2 weeks, can you at least upgrade my shipping or something?'

and they reply, 'oh don't worry, the latest you'll get them is monday!'

oh man were they mistaken, here i am thursday, and they just finally arrived.

lady on the phone was not happy to talk to me, i didn't demand anything or ask any out of the ordinary questions, but man was she ever wrong...

monday? pfft.

can't upgrade my shipping because it's not possible or just because you don't want to...

anyway, i'll be removing the weathertech sticker from this thing, i do not want to rep this company at all.

/rant.

actually not quite yet...

yesterday my GF and i went to applebee's for lunch, i got the appetizer of 4 mini-bacon cheeseburgers and a side of fry's, and she got the appetizer of potato skins ordered with just the bacon and the cheese.

mine comes perfect, her's has onion and tomato on them, never before has there been that on them, so we ask the guy to fix it up, he does, says he's sorry, no problem, mistakes happen, probably just a misunderstanding.

then we get the check, and he charged us for the messed up one... umm, no that's not ok, and of course, he gave us one check instead of two, like we asked for and had specified when we ordered, i mean, we got two things, no drinks, just the two things, what's so hard about this?

then of course i asked him to drop the 2nd potato skins, which he did, and he split up the checks, which he did, but then after taking our cards, he charged the orders to the wrong cards... by now i was just 'wow, is this guy totally out of it?' but i just bucked up and finished it out, the difference was like a dollar anyway.

ugh... just mildly annoying is all.

did you go to the applebee's on bed red? I usually don't have problems when I go to that one.

Don't worry man, sh*t always happens, just know that it always gets better..

Take it from me, I've had a horrible month so far & I think it's finally makin it's turn and going to get better so things don't stay crappy forever

Why the heck are you and your girlfriend splitting checks anyway? Shouldn't one or the other just get the tab?

because both of us are tight on money, but we go back and forth a lot with paying one way or the other, i used to pay for her a lot more, but she saw one of my statements once with all the times we had eaten out and she was just shocked at how much it cost, and doesn't let me pay as much anymore, i'd rather pay...
