Suddenlink


Billed me for services, including raised rates and restoration fees, for 8 months following Hurricane Laura - with no box on my house nor service line from the street pole.

The restoration fees got me. Every rep I spoke to that day deserves a raise.

Called in an order for several pounds of boudin at noon to be picked up at 6:30 pm for a ball. I show up at 6:30 to pick it up and there’s about 20 people ahead of me in line waiting on two cashiers. Well I ain’t got time to wait in line to pick up my order, so I go to the register and politely tell the cashier that I’m there to pick up my call-in order. I tell her my name and she says “Yeah, it’s ready. It’s right back here on the counter.” (3 feet behind her) So I say, “Okay great, can you check me out?” She says, “No, you have to wait in line like everybody else.” I’m like, “Ma’am, I don’t have time to wait in line, that’s why I called in my order 6 hours ago. What’s the point of ordering early by phone if I have wait 20 minutes to check out.” She says, “Well I’m sorry but you can’t cut the line.” Again, I’m like, “ Ma’am, I’m not cutting the line. I called in an order hours ago. It’s already filled. It’s right there behind you. Here’s my card, just ring it up and hand me the box and I’m outta here. The people in line will understand!” She still refused and got a little smart with me about cutting the line. At this point I lost my shite. I called her a stupid bitch and told her to stick that boudin up her arse. Have never been back and I tell everyone not to go there.

I’m talking about Billy’s Boudin in Scott. They act like they’re doing you a favor by letting you buy from them. Worst service ever. Literal retards working for them. frick those people.

Kartchner's is better anyway. I won't stop at Billy's if I do have to. They can keep their big fancy store.

Fausak Tire & Service. Brought car in because of very rough idling. They pulled the heads, found a sheered piece to one of the spark plug mounts. Replaced the heads, forgot to tighten any of bolts down.

I drove away and oil came pouring out half a block away. Pulled a u turn and had them fix it.
Ultimately, it fricked up a piston in one of the cylinders. Offered to fix it and I said no. Got it fixed elsewhere and sent them the bill. Owner paid it, but I wouldn't go to them to replace windshield wipers.

My doctor. I had the first appointment of the morning at 7:15. No one is in the lobby but me waiting for a routine checkup. Get called back at 8:00. They take my blood pressure and say it is higher than usual. I tell the nurse it’s because I’m pissed that I had to wait and now I’m late for work and they just laugh. Next time I set my appointment up over spring break while I’m off. They call me the Friday before my Monday appointment and say the good doc had a family emergency so I ask for a different day next week. He’s out all week so I figured he just took his family on vacation. The last time I scheduled my visit for a Friday morning. I show up to the office and see a note that they closed for Good Friday but never called and told me. I switched to a closer doctor who’s been awesome

Walked into Edwin Watts with 800 cash ( college kid .. early 90s) I worked in a sawmill and drove a pinto ...showed up in workclothes ...no one budged from behind the counter. I would have bought (for 800 bucks) what ever they told me to buy. Couple min after i got there, dude pulled up in Vette. Both salesmen met him 10 ft into the store. Haven't been in EW since

Asian restaurant. Walked in with the family. Wasn’t acknowledged. And looked annoyed that I wanted to place an order. Turned around and walked out. I refuse to give my money to someone that doesn’t want it.

Fastenal lost mine twice in a way

1. They quit taking cash completely and didn't want to sell me less than a whole box of bolts. I was done with them then

2. Few months later a friend who lives about a hour from the store (we live in a rural area) that knew I'd be in the town with the store called and said he had called them and they had some bolts or something he needed and asked if I'd pick them up for him. Went by there and they actually had restricted hours on when "individuals" could buy parts. Like two hours each morning or something weird. I was baffled

frick fastenal

Only Navy is going to get this, but I've never bought a Toshiba product since they gave USN sub secrets to the Russians when I was a kid in the 80s. There are multiple minor "F yous" I've given over the years, but I also get that there are individual restaurant managers/shift managers, etc.

Ate once at Cracker Barrel. Worst food I ever had. No taste whatsoever. Had a better meal from A&G Cafeteria

Restaurants that have workers that handle food with the same gloves they just operated a cash register with. I never return to a place when I see them do that.

Any restaurant that has a sign in the bathroom that says “employees must wash hands before leaving restroom” they’ve never send an employee to wash my hands no matter how I long I stand there.

NFL lost me by shaving/manipulating games.
Bud, well you know.
Walmart when they stopped buying American manufactured products.
Sports Illustrated lost me when they put Tiger Woods on the cover instead of Lakers (championship) or LSU(baseball championship).
Starbucks when they pulled their libtard crap.
