    Speaking of mattresses ...

      My strategy has been to take him down the regular steps during the day for his first walk, then duck under the tape on the balcony for his night walk

        Seattle vandals, looters, rioters...... aka "PROTESTERS"... are out of control.

        If I was a business owner down here, I'd hire private security, and pay them double if they were to use lethal force.

          I don't know if you're joking, but are you seriously supporting murder?

          Do you realize what just happened in Kenosha with a rifle-carrying 17-year old from Illinois?

            I'm sick and tired of living and working in a war zone.

            These "protesters" are nothing but a pack of criminals, and this city is too paralyzed by fear to do anything about it.

            Seattle just got slapped with a $3,000,000,000 wrongful death suit. Perhaps that will get them off their worthless @$$es.

              I understand the frustration, but what do you think the response will be to using lethal force as a deterrent?
              I can't shave with my eyes closed, meaning each day I have to look at myself in the mirror and respect who I see.

                Enough with the political talk. If you really want to express that, do so on social media.

                    We're about to enter September, 6 months of pandemic time, and companies still can't get their stuff together.

                    No customer service, nothing. When layoffs started happening around the world, customer service seems to be the first to be let go. Now these companies are paying for it.

                    Ordering anything could lead to issues, causing you to not get what you wanted, and refunds take forever.

                    One store I've ordered from, I've done so several times and I think every single order I've placed since April has had at least 1 item cancelled because they're out of stock, yet the website said they had not only 1 of the item in stock, I checked and saw they had at least 4 of the item in stock (based on how many I could add to the cart).

                    How are people managing online inventory and live chat/email customer service reps not currently employed? Those are work from home jobs. Companies just dont want to pay more people again, and everyone's realizing that those employees prefer staying on government assistance because they're getting MORE from that than their own job. And Government assistance is barely paying people minimum wage, so what does that say?

                      Everything I've read has shown that customer service reps have been one of the roles that have stayed consistent and has actually grown through this more than most roles.

                      What company are you talking about?

                      You talk about a lack of stock but that isn't a customer service issue so I'd be curious for more details because your post pretty much is opposite of anything I've experienced (understanding the uptick in demand).

                        Most companies I find here dont have CS people around.

                        Live chat is barely an option anymore, and most emails don't get answered for days if even that.

                        Stock issue isnt a CS problem, but they're able to help you out if the item is listed as out of stock but you dont get a refund. But there are CS departments which deal with online inventories as they're able to check and see if they're able to get it to you, or if not, they often call one of their physical stores and ship the item from there if the warehouse cant find the item.

                          People who park across the street from your house and don't pick up their trash or leave their trash on the ground. Have a retention pond/exercise/walking area across the street and people fishing thought their Mcdonalds value meal would degrade naturally.
