I started collecting tin litho space toys because the Golden Age of the tin litho space toy: the mid 1950’s to about 1970) kind of coincided with my childhood.

Hey @QuestDiagnostic Been 8 days. No #COVID19 result. GOD created the world in 6. RESTED on the 7th. And you guys can’t get a stupid #COVID19 test result back in 8 Days? Might as well have gone to urgent care and chucked a dart at a board. Tempted still, but they dropped you.

Well, @HomeDepot No pavers. No call to say there would be no pavers. Despite assurances I would get them TODAY before 1:30 pm. I imagined perhaps you had outsourced your customer service to India. But then felt bad because that would be a disservice to India.

Well, @HomeDepot, got a call from Alhambra super apologetic. All about customer service. Sorry for the one week runaround. We’ll get you your pavers before 1:30pm! We got you, boss. Here are my pavers at 1:30pm.

Okay, @HomeDepot talked to a rep at Alhambra store this am. Said she’d call back at about 10:30 PST. It is now, 12pm PST. I called back. Phone rings five times. Hangs up. Three calls. Three hang ups. Should I file for retirement while waiting for response? Just curious.

Hey, @HomeDepot. Sent me the wrong order on my pavers and your Alhambra and Burbank stores have done NOTHING about it. Have a crew coming this weekend and promised callbacks and action doesn’t happen. Is this customer service? #servicenightmare
