This is beyond scummy behaviour....
Got an email from the owner of an online business that I have been buying from for a little while. Good products and good customer service, a bunch of nice gals.

Anyways, my last order didn't come in, and I sent an email inquiring why.

Well, now I know why.

Seems her nephew was killed in Iraq and she had to come back from vacation to tend to her family. When she was home, her brother, the soldier's father, also died, he couldn't handle the news.
Seems like a few new employees, in addition to not helping the regular people, were cleaning out the business, sending orders to their homes. :mad:

How sick can people be?

:(

1. For many, it's the same reason why they won't enlist.

They support * all the way but are too cowardly to back their support with anything more than their big tonsil-filled mouths.

Or dislike * solely because gas prices are up; that's all that matters to them.

3. Thing was, they were reassuring their customers...
I'm like, okay, I'm over being "worried" about my order, just look after yourselves. :(

Yes, very very sick. :mad:

5. I don't know....
they didn't say so in the email, just that they were deeply apologetic about the orders (the regular staff, not the crooks) and they were on their way. :(

But, you would think they will get busted. :( I hope so anyways. :(
