Okay so on another board I was reading of how different companies piss you off.

So tell a story and try to be intelligent about it and give reasons.


I'll start.

The company that makes me want to climb a bell tower is Whirlpool.


Them ass ripping knuckle draggin freaks have taken 3 weeks now to tell me that the part to fix my oven is still 3 weeks away. Had a tech come out on the 9th and look at the stove, finally today the part was ordered, going to take 3 weeks to come in.

This really sucks simply because now christmas dinner and new years dinner will have to be cooked at another house and brought to mine for the party. Those fuckwits have taken they're sweet time and now I get the old, well it's the best we can do.

Sorry.

I hope you bastards rot in hell with Bill the bastard Gates and King Ralph.

That's the only company I truly hate. They use to handle the parkade in my building, but my building fired them and Ideal now handles our parking (much better company!! :thumbsup: ).

Anyways, about a month after Ideal took over I decide to go to the impark office to return their key and their parking tag so I can get my deposit back. The lady there informs me I had to do this within 3 days in order to get my deposit back. I'm like, I didn't decide to stop using your services, your company's contract was cancelled by the building I live in, I'm just here to return your property - in good condition I might add, and I would like my deposit back. She was "un-co-operative".

So I'm like fine, if you're not giving me my money back, give me the keys and the tag back. All of a sudden she's all defensive - "What are you going to do with those?" I'm like
"That is none of your business because until I get my deposit back, those are in my care to do with as I please. "
"You can't sell those, whoever uses them will have their car towed."
"Thats not your concern. Your concern is getting your property back, mine is getting my $50 back in whatever way possible."

Finally she rolls her eyes and says fine, I'll refund your deposit, you'll have it in the mail by cheque next week. After grabbing a receipt confirming what she said I was on my way and sure enough my money did show up. If I hadn't have fought it though, they would have saw fit to keep my money after I returned their property. I hate scumbag companies like that.

Rona is the worst fagget store ever...I never go there...needed to rent a drywall lifter and I asked them if they have a tool rental section...the fagget behind the counter holds up a hammer and jokes "this is all I got to rent dood" and then he says the funniest shit I've ever heard "just go to Home Depot and rent one" :rofl: :rofl:

Canadian tire is also a shit store which I've chosen to boycott.....but I still end up going there because they always have good shit on sale :D I hate the store...yet I can't live without one...now thats when you know you're crazy. Just don't buy anything that you might have to return and you're fine.

I've tried to think of companies and off the top of my head, I could only come up with a few:

- Ford
- Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Von Dutch, and any other company that sees fit to make a 20$ purse, 5$ shirt, 20$ pair of pants or any other article of "status" and mark it up 2000% cause it seems they aren't making enough money as is. Then it turns the majority of the people who buy them into namebrand suckers who walk around acting better than everyone that doesnt have one, or who actually pay the 30$ they're worth and get a knockoff, because they see them as "beneath" them.
- SCN, can't say my reasons but they are there none the less.

That's them for now, I'll post more if I remember them.

Funny Story:

I was enjoying Wings at Limericks with a co-work back in the Summer, and two promotions guys came to our table from Big Rock.

They asked us where we worked, and befor my buddy could answer, I said "The most hated company in Western Canada".

The answer, without hesitation that hegave us, was "Telus?"

Hahaha, we had a good laugh over that one, and then an evan larger one when I told him he was right.

hahahahaha.

Owned.


In TELUS's defence, most of the public hatred comes from things that are beyond TELUS's controls, and most often are regulated by the CRTC, which ties TELUS hands behind their back. However, though public ignorance, it appears to be TELUS's fault and TELUS's idea Regardless, having seen the way this company operates as an employee, it definatly remains on my list.

Corp account with dozens of cell phones. They fucked up and stopped sending invoices. So eventually they called to say "Pay or we turn your shit off". Ok, send us the bills then. A bunch show up, we pay. They phone a few days later "Pay or we turn your shit off" - ?? we paid, no this is a few more invoices. They send those, repeat. I think they've sent 3 batches and they are still harassing us.

Even all that wouldn't put them on the hate list, except that their staff are rude and condescending about it - like it's our fault.

Impark made me mad because I needed to park for 2 hours (from 5-7) but their fucking machine had all 4 options saying "xx-6pm". The machine doesn't flip over to night rates till right at 6 (I guess), and as if I'm waiting. Sure enough, get a ticket at like 6:15.

Khyron

really?? PDL doesn't deal with cell phone bills unless they were company accounts on which the initial cell phones were purchased. By that I mean that PDL only charges for the price of the phone. Any bills after that come from Telus. Mark Griffith has the best customer service I've ever seen and I continue to see referrals for him. He's in the corp side of PDL.
If people are harassing you for the bill it's usuallys straight from telus.

telus because they tried to stick me with a $600 bill for calling Sao Paulo (some country that tries to scam people) when I was on vacation out of the province. When I tried to remedy the problem they gave me the run around for months trying to tell me that my cpu made the call eventhough it was turned off and not connected to a phone line ever!

It ended up taking me 6 months and a whole lot of effort for them to admit their mistake. And for that I will never be a telus customer. and every time they call me and ask me why, I give them the same story i just gave you (except im usually a little more graphic and angry when i talk to them.)

Yes, I can tell you that I can (and am) living Telus free. It's easy,
don't use their internet (Shaw/Cybersurf), don't use their cell phone (Bell/Roger's/Fido), don't use their home phone (Primus, soon to be Shaw). Telus has screwed me over on my cell phone, my home phone, and my internet. 3 strikes and you're out rule... I gave them multiple chances and now the can go out of business for all I care.

Were you sending to the US? those are standard custom papers declaring what they are importing, every shipping company need to do those for packages destined out of Canada. But yes they are a shit company. I was sending packages out via Small Packet or something like that it says on their website that they have insurance included upto 100. Go there tell me no there is no insurance included and to ship it with insurance i have to send it regular parcel at the least. Phone them, they tell me that there is insurance, go back down there and they phone the "retail line" and they say there is no insurance. Finally phone the customer service line and let them speak to them, wasted 2 hours. I guess they don't like to inform their "representatives" their updated policies... something that happened 4 months ago!

Sport Chek - This is by far one of the shittiest places to work, all the managers are complete jack asses and you make jack. 5.90/hour or 5% commission on all you sell at least $119/hour to make more than minimum wage, on a slow day like monday nights or tuesdays its tough. Tons of other stuff but I can't divulge ;)

Most of the cashiers are managers, OR part managers, meaning they decide who works when, what job they work, what happens and the cashiers pretty much rule the store.. haha, I just hate the whole enviroment, the one I worked at in beddington is brutal, the doors dont work(you gotta smash 'em with the carts for them to open) its dark in there, its always dirty, they wont hire daytime janitors, 80% of the carts are broken, and they dont have troffs on the glass roof then so when it rains u always get a huge dump of rain or whatever on you walk by it, the parking lot is even worse, there are so many pot holes and ruts that you either sprain your ankle or drop someones groceries off the cart. And last christmas, when it was -20 they wouldnt even provide a toque for me, I had ordered one when I started working there, but they "forgot" to order it, I tried to bring one from home but I didnt have a black one with out any brands on it so they wouldnt let me wear it, so I told them I wasn't going to go outside without a toque.

Dont even get me started about the administrations, it took over 1 and a half months for me to get money that they owed me. I tried to down it all and come to work with a smile, but its hard when they would bring me into the office make me wait and then yell at me for wasting company time( instead of taking out groceries I would be cleaning up carts and general stuff around the store) but i was always sure everyone was helped when I was doing these things. The cashiers would yell at me for this too, one time I came out of the head office after talking to one of the managers and 3 cashiers were talking together and they said

"hope they talked to you about your problem" I was like wtf, they told the managers I would stand around and do jack shit, but when I came out there was people waiting on tills with no cashiers, and services clerks standing there waiting for the cashiers to ring food though..

If people are harassing you for the bill it's usuallys straight from telus.

I guess all these invoices are for hardware (chargers, number switching etc) - and the fuckers even have an automated calling thing bitching at us, even though we just got the latest batch of invoices a few days ago. The sales/tech guys at PDL are top notch but I wouldn't toss their accounting dept a rope if they were trapped in a pit of tigers.

I can tell you of one: Dominos Pizza! I work for them, and they are the shittiest run, inm terms of food service. they pay their people shit, and basically run on the philosophy that ' we need to save money to make money!' which totally doesn't work. They are losing money left and right, due to archaic policies, and everything they touch goes down the drain. remember grabbajabba? dominos parent company, comac food gropu, owned them. anyways, don't order from them!!!

Saturn - Why do you think.
Hyundai - Why do you think.

And in terms of that I said nothing is wrong with reliability jsut noone likes rusty ass cars, as in Honda factory paint, and body parts are prone to chipping, rust, and every other ageing problem but in such a way that it is much more premature than other car manufacturers.

I've seen it lots yes I know you probably own a Honda and whoop dee doo thats up to you, and what you like is too. One to his own.

And last christmas, when it was -20 they wouldnt even provide a toque for me, I had ordered one when I started working there, but they &quot;forgot&quot; to order it, I tried to bring one from home but I didnt have a black one with out any brands on it so they wouldnt let me wear it, so I told them I wasn't going to go outside without a toque.

Dont even get me started about the administrations, it took over 1 and a half months for me to get money that they owed me. I tried to down it all and come to work with a smile, but its hard when they would bring me into the office make me wait and then yell at me for wasting company time( instead of taking out groceries I would be cleaning up carts and general stuff around the store) but i was always sure everyone was helped when I was doing these things. The cashiers would yell at me for this too, one time I came out of the head office after talking to one of the managers and 3 cashiers were talking together and they said

&quot;hope they talked to you about your problem&quot; I was like wtf, they told the managers I would stand around and do jack shit, but when I came out there was people waiting on tills with no cashiers, and services clerks standing there waiting for the cashiers to ring food though..

good enough?


Co-op is a gay company a BIG fuck you goes out to them. I worked there for 8 months last year, then when I quit I magically got a letter from the assistant manager saying im fired. I didn't get enough bitching at him.

Second a Bigger fuck you goes out to Superstore. What store doesn't let their employees grow a fuckin goatee (no i dont work in foods). And manager who have their asses to wide from taking it from each other.

Another fuck you goes out to Blasking & Lane on Macleod by Chinook, Trio Motors in Franklin, All of Calgary Transit. Im sure I got more on my list!
