HATE: DHL


Here's the problem. DHL couldn't compete with UPS and FedEx so they decided to step in and steal everyone's packages and then, instead of delivering them to you, they deliver them to the post office. What's the point of existing at all DHL? The post office was getting packages fine (sort of) before you decided to roll up your red and yellow truck and intercept. You can track your package with DHL until they give it to the post office and then it's good luck! Hope you get it soon! When a company ships your package using DHL, they are saying "I hate you." Hey, guess who uses DHL? Urban Outfitters.

LOVE: Gamestop; HATE: UO



Gamestop is the only place left where you can actually go into a store and walk out with more money than when you entered. This is what happened. I made an online purchase with a clothing store that shall go unnamed (screw that it was urban outfitters!!). They charged me twice. My account overdrafted during the memorial day weekend when nothing could be done. I called UO, they said they would have someone from Finance help me by 4 that day. Not good enough because I knew they had messed up and just had to push a button. And I was hungry. I called the bank. They said they would lift the charge if I could do a 3-way with UO. Not as fun as it sounds. I called UO and told them about the 3-way. They said they couldn't do that type of call (what did you think I was talking about?). Then they said there was no one there from finance. What do you mean? The last person told me finance was handling the problem! After I called her out on her lie she said she would make a note in my account. Ok. Neat. I then called the bank back and just like that this new person at the bank took the extra $___.___ off my account. That said, my account still decided to go into the negatives today because of overdraft fees. So I went to gamestop.

I traded in 2 games and got enough money to buy a sandwich at quiznos, cat food, and milk and have some left over. Gamestop almost didn't have enough money in the register ($28!) because everyone pays by credit card. No shit.
