What have you done to your wagon lately? (Let's keep the thread going!)

"Come on! Let's go for a ride! I'm waiting!"

 

We entered our first and last car show.
Great turnout of the Florissant Fall Festival Police Car and Bike Show!
We didn’t win anything we didn’t expect too.
There were about 300 cars and great weather…

 

She is pretty serious about her rides.

 

Shocker.

 

Rockauto, I could understand, but Summit?

 

I've had duds from Summit. I swear I get duds from everywhere nowadays.

 

Everyone is half assing everything. I got at scratched up dinged up shifter from Jeggs but I wanted to drive the car not piss around with someone on the website.

 

Yup. Sad, but true.

 

I guess I half assed that transaction by not returning it, so I can only blame myself for that one…

 

My cheap Chinesium 5.0L dizzy is new but defective out-of-the -box. It's what I get for looking to spend only $75 and not have to rebuild.

 

i returnd it for an exchange. had to call to find out ware is it. oh yes you want an exchange not a refund i see that you wrote that down. then why am i calling gezzz. thing are not the same anymore .

 

Things have definitely changed. It used to be people had knowledge and pride in their products. And customer service was always a priority. I'm generalizing of course because we all know of businesses and people that were the exception to the rule.
But overall, things really were better then than they are now.

 

Aaaaah, no worries. Yeah, soon as I'm home Monday, I'll get the replacement ordered. Gotta get Roger inspected and tabbed, this is holding up the works.

 

I work with the public every day. I try to treat folks/customers the way I hope to be treated when I have a concern. And you are right, customer service is NOT what it used to be but nor are customers.
It amazes me what some customers expect from retailers. And are so quick to use social media to voice their compliant while embellishing the facts. And the language...

 

i drive a mixer for work. pouring the concrete to the contractors or homeowners. i try to do my best. i take pride in doing a good job and at times i feel bad when things go south, it happens. i get mad at my self, i can do better. there is none of that any more folks just dont care. and thats my problem i care. im 65 love what im doing. generation coming up way differnt.i wish my dad or granddad was here to see this, i would get a chuckle out of it.
