Hurray for customer service ineptitude

[donutsweeper]

I was on the phone with the customer service of a very fancy jewelry company earlier today to return a present my daughter got.  Their policy is that, since the bracelet arrived broken, shipping is free within the US.

"Where do you live, Ma'am?"

"Minnesota."

"I'm afraid that will require international shipping charges then."

"Why?  It's a state."

"A state of what?"

*headdesk*

And Ianto snark is something I always approve of.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

yeah- too often he's written as a pushover

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

I think my favorite line ever is from Meat. "We could release a single."

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

Ianto kicked ASS in Meat

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

He did.

although, in general, the episode was STUPID. Come on, Rhys following them and no one noticing? NOT retconing Rhys and Jack allowing Gwen's tantrum? pardon me while I hack a hairball

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

I was personally voting for Gwen to get retconned.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

oh god yes. retcon the hell out of both Gwen and rhys and send them on their way

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

I would cheer.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

seriously- we lose Tosh yet keep Gwen- how the hell is that fair?

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

It's evil, that's what it is.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

I'd even have taken Owen over Gwen, and that's saying a lot.

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Same here.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

especially this owen

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

That would've been a good way to fix the whole ordeal, you know.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

monkey!owen is the answer to everything

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Yes!

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

and so darn cute!

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Maybe Jack wouldn't want to kill him so much, then.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

maybe. but only maybe

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's kind of a toss-up with Owen.

[donutsweeper.livejournal.com]

still though, in even his most annoying version he wins out over Gwen

[the-dark-side.livejournal.com]

Yes. I really don't know why RTD thinks she's so special.

*coughs* MarySue *coughs*

Pretty much. Sort of like Rose.
