Charter came out and installed TV today. I get a recording

he met your expectations press 2 ect.

They started question 2. I hung up.

Tell you what, if I have a complaint I will call you. If you don't
hear me bitch (and I send you my money), you can assume you met my
expectations.


What about checking out at the cashier in the store using a credit
card. I love it when the card reader asks if the sales price is ok or
not. I often joke with the cashiers and ask, "does this mean it's
negotiable if I say no?".

KMart is horrible for this. You get a whole list of questions before
you can sign for your purchase. Last time I was there, the cashier,
apparently knowing how people hate this, just reached over the credit
card machine and randomly tapped his fingers on the screen, making it go
directly to the signature screen. I'm sure the bean counters love this!
