The good ones bother getting a license - the buttholes just buy radios from Amazon or Temu and don't bother with the licensing requirements.

I don't usually make sweeping generalizations (ha!), but... Wrangler guys almost always have excessive buying problems. I have a couple of friends who bought Wranglers and then made them completely un drivable with "upgrades..."

Shocked...Shocked I tell you! Porsche must be using the same battery packs as Elon.

It's OK Billy it's a coral reef now, it's environmentalism.

Yeah there will be some toxic crap leaking out of that hulk forever...

There will be battery-powered earth love leaking out of that ship forever.

Lithium continues to burn underwater, ripping the oxygen atoms from water molecules. The hydrogen by-product of this process is just the icing on the fire cake.

The freighter may leak nasty bunker fuel for the next 50 years, but those lithium batteries will self-resolve in no time.

Hola, putitos. ¿Qué tal?

Hallo. Hier läuft es gut.

Allerdings ist der Kundenservice tot. Bleiben Sie dran für mehr.

Que horrible. Estoy esperando.

Back in September I bought a couple of Olivia Rodrigo tix for a grand-daughter for her birthday/HS graduation from StubHub, at a premium price of course. Everything seemed right at that time i.e. order showed in my StubHub account. Early this month I got the "your mobile(electronic) tix are now available" email from StubHub. Clicked link tix opened and I did the "share" link to the grand-daughter. She received and accepted the tix. Here's where things went weird. The tix opened in a secure website(ok fine), did not show in her StubHub account(not fine) and there was no opportunity to place in a "wallet"(not fine). So the daughter called SH for a clarification and after about 1.5 hours on the phone the customer service rep said "you will receive an email within 24 hours to straighten out the issue." NEVER HAPPENED! So the next day the daughter called SH back. This dude said: "I think I know what's wrong and will call you back at 4:30pm when you have your daughter's phone." NEVER HAPPENED! So two days later she and I called SH and was told "SH is aware of a problem with Olivia tix and we are working on the issue. You will receive an email 72 hours before the concert that it's fixed." NEVER HAPPENED!

Soooo yesterday I called StubHub myself. After checking the history of our calls in the SH computer the service rep came back with a reasonable explanation(the "known" ticket scalper uses a secure website to make tix available through SH) after some verbal gymnastics between us that consumed approx. 45 minutes. At that point I asked to speak with a supervisor to confirm the information after I explained we had been already been mislead(lied to) three times. Here's where the train ran off the rails! The customer service rep said I would receive the same information from her boss that she had given me. I told her fine and I understand but I still want to hear it from a supervisor. Then she said "the supervisor is busy" and replied "Ok fine just transfer me into her queue I have my phone on charge, I would be happy to wait as I am retired and have all day. NOPE she would not do as I asked! While I couldn't get her to admit she was refusing to transfer me this dance went on for at least 20 minutes!!! I used every technique I knew from 30 years of people management but failed. I finally got pissed and told her Thanks for refusing to allow me to speak with management and told her there are other ways I can use to advise them of my displeasure with their customer service. I am happy to report I'm all "growed" up and used zero profanity, however, I really wanted to...

Customer Service is a dead art form no longer found in modern society...at least at StubHub. Never Again will I purchase tix through StubHub!

EOR!
