Random Fail FWP Thread 2: Something, Something, Your Mother's a Whore.

buy extras and just hang on to them

Honestly, the hope the past time or two was I'd be able to scrounge enough for a new PC altogether. Unfortunately, any time I'd built up a decent nest egg, something happens and that idea goes poof.

Plus I have tried a few different brands. Just guessing they don't like the summers in my room since it's often 80+ in here before even considering my PC's internal temps. And yeah, I know that contributes in part, too. I've tried things like some machine oil in the fans, but that can be a "fix" for anywhere from a couple weeks to a couple months.

The weather at work can’t make up its fucking mind. Downpours right before I start at 6am , cold and windy then sun shines blinding me , now one half of the sky is gloomy while the other is spitting out rainbows.. WTF.

Amazon has locked my account 3 times in a little over 24 hours for supposed suspicious activity. No hey is this you no just hey you hacked try again in 5 hours. First time I called they said idk that's weird there should be an option to verify but we'll talk to the people and you should be fine in a few hours but if not you'll get a call from the people who work in that department within 24 hours. Well try again and locked out again. Get same story but get to talk to a supervisor who says they will escalate it and it will be resolved within 3 hours and will be able to complete purchase. 4 hours later locked out again and the person I talk to refuses to help just keeps saying wait 24 hours... which it's already been by this point. Since when did Amazon customer service get so terrible

Edit: Update they now finally send me an email... thanking me for informing them of the unauthorized access to my account. Mother fuckers didn't listen to a goddamn thing I said

Double edit: And they wont let me leave a review either because I haven't made a purchase since last Christmas time

More updates sent them more information this time in writing... and after spending like 20 hours reviewing it they come back with a premade email thanking me for telling them about the unauthorized access once and that they will relock my account because of that. Again showing they haven't listened to a goddamn thing

Looking thru there social media it seems like a lot of people are having a lot of problems. Getting charged for things they didn't buy, being told something will be delivered every day for a week, everything is late, holding vendors stuff, etc. None of which gets solved because it seems like customer support is all lip service. When exactly did amazon become the absolute worst?

[Guitarman]

Been waiting ages for a package to arrive. Noticed the seller never put down my apartment number.

Called seller: "oops too late, contact USPS".
Call USPS: "ok give me tracking ill fix it for you"

Today: "Delivered to parcel locker"

....nothing there. At all. Driver didn't even make an attempt to deliver it correctly, or, yknow, at least look at the name and toss it with the rest of my mail?


USPS fucking blows ass.

Theatre chain I work for was bought by a new company a few months ago, and their major focus has been to reduce "clutter" around the building, which includes things like keeping pens next to registers where we use them. Our general manager has also been on an organization kick, throwing stuff out that is in drawers like spare parts that are used periodically. Today, he decided to organize our cash office. So instead of having the computer, adding machine, bill counter, trays for paperwork and the like all together along the same counter, he decided to spread them out along 3 different walls. His email message about it included the line "this is the way it is now and it won't be changed". Just one more thing in the growing list that has been stressing me out lately.

Can't decide whether to fuck over my coworkers by quitting on Dec 23, or sticking around until after the holidays.

That is the absolute fucking worst.

I’m just now recovering from drinking at 5pm which went from about 7pm to 1:30am last night. I don’t get what people describe as hangovers , I just detox from the drinks slowly. It’s more annoying than anything because it wrecks my stomach. I’d prefer the migraine.

[Yuri-G]

I don't get hangovers either, I just get hardcore depressed for a day. would also prefer the migraine. I do throw up tho!

[Zetanio]

My farts after Indian are truly magnificent and majestic in their terribleness.

Didn't know where to put this so here we go. It's sort of fail but also sad. My coworker group text us on Sunday saying her 17 year old is walking around the house acting like she's at work so they're going to the hospital. Later she text the group saying they have to go to University of Michigan hospital. She messaged my other coworker that her kid tested positive for meth. This would explain the kids actions.

Yesterday she calls and tells the boss her daughter actually had an adverse reaction to sleeping pills and it wasn't meth. Uh...no. But my boss believes it because he doesn't know anything about drugs and if coworker says that's what happened then it must be true. My coworker tells me this morning that she received a text last night saying our coworker said her kid is now on suicide watch because she took a bunch of her boyfriend's sleeping pills and basically od'd on them. Makes sense because she had probably been up for days and wanted to go to sleep.

Overall, one huge fucked up thing going on. Sucks.

the human body can do some weird shit when any kind of medication/drug is involved. don't get too judgey, man. she might not be lying.

I get what you're saying, however with an EMT confirming it's meth and what she had described regarding her daughter's actions was spot on for someone on meth. I think it's both. It's so weird because her daughter does not seem at all like they type to try drugs. It's sad overall and I really hope she's fine. Hospital called and she's on suicide watch for the next 3 days.

Have to head out to NYC this weekend on short notice and I really don’t feel like driving. Looked into a train ticket and it’s damn near $400!? Wtf? For 38 euros I could go where ever the hell I wanted for the entire weekend on train in Germany.

[Zetanio]

Short notice Amtrak tickets? Good fucking luck.

[Xno Kappa]
