Upon reading the latest issue of NinerTimes (the UNCC student newspaper) it has become quite obvious that the UNCC police and the nearby Charlotte Mecklenburg police have become bored – they are arresting college students for smoking pot. What comes to the top of my mind, immediately? The fact that they could be using...
My 2003 GMC envoy is indeed of new brake pads and rotors for the front end. So I called around several places and one car dealership at prices so high it was actually ridiculous – Liberty, Buick, GMC trucks here in Matthews North Carolina (right below Charlotte, NC). They wanted $114 each for the...
Before I get too far into this I want you to understand there are some very credible people looking into and investigating this matter right now. Scott Shields has been teaching martial arts and in particular Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for over 12 years. His first location was off Lawyers Rd. Now he has relocated...
I have to lay this one out – I got ripped off big time by the local jackasses at Stanley Steemer. My wife and I wanted our carpets cleaned and I made the biggest mistake of my life by calling Stanley Steemer. I saw their commercial on TV and figured they were the best...
I have been to numerous job fairs over the years, in good times and in bad (like after the dot com bubble burst and the NASDAQ crashed. Many times I am not actively seeking a job but am just out perusing and networking. I have my own businesses and am kind of at the...
I have been trying to cancel clear wireless since February 2011 and have finally succeeded but only after having to drive to a BestBuy and having them call while i was with them. For being a month to month no contract service I feel like my rights have been violated by this company. Why...
I have to tell you guys this – I bought the new (it must be new because I hadn’t seen it before) Mothers headlight restoration kit. I bought it because because it said it quickly and safely restores all plastic headlights to crystal new clarity. Well, guess what? It don’t work worth a damn....
I was looking to replace my VW jetta with a newer model and maybe something a little bigger. So I heard an ad on the radio about how great the service and prices were at Carolina Volkswagen so I went there (boy, do I wish I hadn’t). I was in for a nightmare of...
What I really hate are anoying phone calls from bill collectors that don’t know what they are doing and call looking for someone that doesn’t even live at your address. This has been happening to me quite a bit lately. It almost always seems to come from this (704)717-5564 number. Lately I have to...
My AC system stopped working the other day and the guy from my church (Calvary Church) that usually fixes my home repairs was apparently in jail for non-payment of child support (I found this out from his relatives when I tried to contact him). So, I had no other avenues that I knew of...
I have been doing business on Ebay for quite some time and only recently have I run into this charge back fee thing with PayPal. It is rather annoying and quite costly. It appears that on top of the entire transaction being turned over in favor of the customer (regardless if they are right...
I was watching TV late at night a few weeks ago and I saw this ad for this Fast Brite headlight lens restorer kit. It said it was the most amazing automotive invention of its kind and that it quickly restores clouded headlight lenses to new condition with a few wipes of a towel...
Earlier this year my young son had a UTI/bladder infection, but there was more to the problem. He went to the family physician because he was urinating blood – not badly, but definitely enough to be concerned. The family physician had him sent over to the local hospital (Carolinas Medical Center University) where we...
I have been a student at UNCC (University of North Carolina at Charlotte) for the past 3 years. In that time it had to buy a lot of books and I’ve seen tuition and school fees increase at an alarming rate during that time. One of the worst things that I’ve seen is the...
I had always worn glasses all my life – I was born with crappy vision in both eyes. The vision in my one eye was worse then the other and I always had to wear coke bottle glasses since I was a little kid. When I grew up I was always the butt of...
When the movers I hired and had booked for 3 weeks confirmed on Friday July 1st,2011 then cancelled on Saturday for that Sunday move 10am, I was horrified that I was not able to find movers. But I was told to look on Craigslist and did so. i found Kirk at Move My Stuff...
I have received over 41 phone calls in the past 3 days from 1(952)831-4800. They usually hang up on me when I ask for the callers name or more information. They want me to tell them I am someone I am not and they get really rude and indignant about it. I am from...
On 6/26/2011, I experienced the worst customer experience at Dave and Busters located at Arundel Mills in Hanover Maryland. My wife and I invited another couple who had never been to Dave & Busters there to have a good time and play some pool. Our time spent there was great until we left the...
It was May of last year and it was getting hot – we had a heat spell that was just crazy and my GMC Envoys air conditioning stopped blowing cold air. Just two years prior I had a new air compressor installed in my truck. Now, it wasn’t blowing any cold air at all....
I recently bought the 3M brand headlight lens restoration kit off Amazon.com for about $16 including shipping and handling. The first thing that should have tipped me off that this might be a sketchy product or even a scam was the fact that it took over 3 weeks to get my order. I have...
