"try harder, you know the golden rule!"

I don't think this customer knows what the actual golden rule is.

If I wasn't "vulnerable" to negative feedback I would have canceled the order right then and there. I'm just gonna ignore him. If he really wants it, he may contact me again and pay the full shipping.

Of course, I'm sure I'll get negative feedback for being "difficult" or something anyway even if he does pay for shipping.

"try harder, you know the golden rule!

what?

also, if he was willing to receive them wrapped in a grocery bag, what the fuck was wrong with a box?

probably nothing. he just wanted you to send it in a shitty way so he could claim it was damaged upon receipt and fuck you over to get his money back.

His issue is the cost over the shipping. Priority is obviously expensive. But he got such a good deal on the DVDs I can't believe he has the nerve to nickel and dime me over the shipping. Even WITH the shipping it's a good deal.

So I listed a DVD lot, and the only box I have to ship it in is a priority mail box, so I listed priority mail as the only shipping method.

This person wins the auction (and actually got it for a steal, I listed it too low I think) and I don't hear from them for a few days (I give at least a week to receive payment). Finally yesterday I get this message asking if I can ship it cheaper (which is fair, in most cases I'm lenient) but I explained that the only thing I have to ship it in is a priority mail box. I explain that I'd be more than willing to cancel the transaction if he didn't want to pay the priority shipping.

Messages me back telling me all different ways I can ship it via media mail ("just wrap it up in a grocery bag, surely you have those laying around"). And again I explain that I don't have anything else to ship it in because I don't keep boxes laying around nor do I keep paper grocery bags laying around.

I get a condescending message back saying "try harder, you know the golden rule!" and after that I just said "fuck it, I'm done" reported him to eBay and everything. All I care about is getting negative feedback at this point. I'm always happy to work with a customer but if there's something I can't do, it is what it is. I'm not some big corporation with endless resources here.. just a guy trying to unload some DVDs I don't need anymore lol.

I've never had such a difficult customer on eBay before.

And I didn't get into it until around the time Legend of Korra came out, but Avatar is fantastic. I can't believe it didn't win this poll.

This is long overdue... but I think I need a new job. I've been working for the same company for about ten years (a retail job) and I'm making an embarrassingly low amount of money. Plus.. the job sucks (obviously). I've never really had career goals (this is going way back to when I was in like eight grade) and up until recently, I've never really minded my job. I also don't define myself by my career... there's more to life than working.

But I recently got promoted.. and at first I thought it would be good. I thought I'd learn some new skills, have a chance to grow as a person. Plus they gave me a couple extra bucks an hour raise.

After about a little over a month... I'm thinking I made a mistake. I'm doing the same type of work, and that raise they gave me? I haven't calculated yet but I'm pretty sure any extra money I'm making is going to gas because I have to work at a different location that's farther away.

So now I'm seriously looking into new careers. I'd love to do something practical (I can't imagine sitting behind a desk lol) so I've been looking into possible trade schools I can go to, but I was also thinking of the post office.

Obviously I know it's not a very glamorous career, but that doesn't bother me. And I know it can be stressful, but so can the job I have now, so it's nothing I'm not used to. It looks like the pay is pretty good (better than what I make now) and of course it has benefits, which is really important to me (looking back, the biggest reason I've stayed at my current job so long is because it has good benefits).

I was just wondering if anyone here has worked at the post office, or knows anyone who does or has and could provide some insight.

I've personally loved all the movies.

A decade later and I'm still trying to wrap my head around the amount of unwarranted hate these movies get. I mean, if you know anything about Transformers, you know the franchise is built on silly nonsensical plots, lots of action and explosions, not-very-deep characters, human presence (except the Beast shows), and giant transforming robots that fight each other.

The movies capture all that really well, while still making it somewhat "realistic".

And if you think the human presence is bad in the movies... go watch some of the anime Transformers shows and you'll see these look much better by comparison lol.

I can't name a game that did motion controls better than Metroid Prime Trilogy. It's a huge improvement over the standard controls.

Yeah Metroid Prime greatly benefited from the pointer controls.

Pikmin, also!

That was where the strength of the Wii's motion controls really laid in my opinion.

Waggle sucked. Steering could be tricky. But pointer controls? Sooo good.

Glee lol.

I was REALLY into Glee for a couple years there. I started during the mid season break of season 2. Then I watched the rest of that season and all of season 3 as they aired.

Then I watched some of season 4 and... gave up on it lol. The biggest issue, I think, was that it was airing at the same time as the last season of The Office which obviously takes precedent.

At that time I didn't have a DVR so I would have to wait eight days to watch it on Hulu... then I just decided it wasn't worth the "effort" of setting up the laptop and everything to watch it lol.

I wouldn't say I hate it though. At best I'd say I'm indifferent towards it lol.

Why is it always Nintendo that has these "shortage" problems? The PS4 and XBONE were a little hard to find at first, but after a few weeks they were everywhere.

because nintendo does it to make it seem like their product is the super shit and everyone wants one.

they create an artificial shortage in an attempt to get more people to buy their products who wouldn't normally otherwise do it. but they see that it's always sold out, and people are always clamoring to get one..so maybe it's a big deal.

it's completely shitty of them to do, but they do it.

I really doubt this is the case.

She is so wrong for Wonder Woman it is beyond laughable. That clown Zack Snyder went for height but for got everything else that makes W.W. For instance Gadot has the physique of a supermodel not an Amazonian warrior unlike Lynda who did. Also W.W is a blue eyed Brunette whereas that ugly hag Gadot has brown eyes.
