"You Suck" List

1)  Best Buy - This past Saturday, I went with the BF to Best Buy in Lincoln Park to look at DVD players.  His current DVD player isn't working that well, but what can you say about things you buy out of the trunk of a car in Logan Square.  So he buys one.  Bumping it against things on the Red line is standard.  He said it felt like the DVD moved around a lot in the box.  Surprise, surprise...in the box is the DVD player, nicely placed in a Walgreens bag (this IS inside the sealed box).  It had some scratches and some fingerprints made by greasy fingers!
 
2) Comcast - An appointment was made to get the cable looked at and fixed.  Comcast called to say that they were coming in an hour...only they never showed up.  So when I called Comcast the next day to bitch them out, they offered me $20 credit and said the would call in an hour to tell me if a repair person could come out that same day.  No one called.  So I called again in full bitch mode and they hung up on me!  So when it came time to talk to the Supervisor, he said that he could only offer me a $12 credit for the days of cable I didn't get b/c I (me) wasn't the one availbale for THEIR next appointment.
