berkeley a turkey.
Went in to a local hardware store Friday to avoid big box stores, ordered plywood for the boat.
"It'll be in in Tuesday, let me get your name and number."
Tuesday I get a call "Our truck got in late, it'll be a couple hours to unload, I'll call you tomorrow when it is ready."
No call Wednesday. Busy with work, no worries. Load the dogs up to get them out of the house and head up there today on my lunch break.
Guy behind the counter isn't the guy I talked to, says he sold three sheets of it.
"..... you ordered that stuff in for me, and you sold it?"
"Did you pre-pay for it?"
"No, no one told me to. Was it ordered under my name and phone number?"
"It was, but we can't hold it if you didn't pay for it."
Some under the breath mumbling and cursing occurred.
"I need 4 sheets. I need you to order 4 sheets for me. I will pay for it now."
I pay, I drive home irritated beyond belief.
I get all the way home and receive a phone call. Its the guy that I originally talked to, he ordered 7 sheets, 3 for that other guy and 4 for me. He guaranteed they were in stock, so I unload the dogs and go to pick it up.
The most annoying thing, the little nutsack that initially talked to me didn't apologize at all for making me take an unnecessary drive. Tried to make some excuse about how they bundled the wood differently.
