12月9日 Go figure....So I get this post card in the mail telling me the siding is in...and I need to pick it up in seven days (which I know is a scare tactic). It arrived a week ago this past Saturday. On Saturday I tried to rent a U-Haul truck to unload the storage shed and pick up the siding; but due to other issues that didn't get to happen. On Sunday, I gathered Dad and his truck and we set off in the 7 degree weather to get the siding. We arrive at Menards, go to the special order desk to get our order confirmation, and head to the yard.
They direct us to the special order aisle. who in return directs us to the "shed" only to have the 18 year old kid working there start loading up STOCK vinyl siding into the truck. Hell to the NO! I didn't special order, wait ten days and buy twice as many pieces as I needed to get sent home with STOCK siding. I point out that I special ordered the siding and had I ordered stock siding I would have already picked it up and would have only purchased the six or seven pieces I was actually short rather that a whole square. He replies (after looking at the sheet...again...) "You have special order siding. Its dutch lap. You don't want this..." NO SHIT I DON'T WANT THIS; YOU FRIGGIN IDIOT.
Now, I don't know if you caught the whole - rounded up my dad and his truck part; but it sucks to borrow someone's time and vehicle to waste their day. And the time wasting was just beginning. So this guy sends us back over to the special order aisle. He and a manager (not an overly qualified position I am thinking) start looking high and low (literally) for my special order siding. Did I mention that I special ordered this siding, had to wait ten days to get it to the store during which time the last of the decent weather has waned, and purchased nearly twice as much as I actually needed due to minimum purchase requirements for SPECIAL ORDERS???? After about 10 minutes (during which time my skin had become thoroughly dehydrated from my dad's need to run his heater and blower at the highest and hotest possible settings) they came back to inform me that they couldn't find it and would have to reorder it.
So....long story short... no siding. Reordered. Have to go through this again. And its friggin' cold out now.
Kicker: When I got home Monday there was another postcard reminding me that my special order was at the store and available for pick up. Um...yeah, right.
Kicker for me: They are going to deliver it this time - free of charge. 8-)
Have a great day. 引用通告此日志的引用通告 URL 是： http://jlspace1970.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!F87DCB9E5EB3611F!373.trak 引用此项的网络日志
