Ok… After the crappy run in with the international CSR who apparently is not keen on the customer service part of being a CSR, I decided to call the last location it was at. Fortunately that lady was very friendly and within 30 minutes she was able to track it down, and reroute it. It's now on it's way and should be here this afternoon.

Phew - good news at last, tat!..

Why do people doing service jobs, not provide the proper, polite service they're being effin paid for… It's not always as easy (I speak from experience), but still...

I have (almost) infinite patience for customer service people, having worked in restaurants for so long, but rudeness is where I draw the line. You can eff-up and be dumb all day long, but cop an attitude, and I lose my patience real quick.

Can anyone point me in the direction of some good sewing literature? Websites, book, or otherwise?

I'm having parcel woes too.

Ordered up a rather expensive graphics card for a PC, and it's disappeared somewhere into the ether. I've tried my neighbours, and no-one has taken the parcel in.

Of course, I was in at the time it was allegedly delivered, but no-one knocked on my door…

Nothing high calibre dude, I had a drunk conversation with a mate about some strawberry flavoured Phillie Blunt cigars that I tried in LA many years ago, just wondering if they are still available and if I could get a pack for him to try.

[seawolf]

I'll keep a lookout Gav.

[jdl1279]

Easy to obtain, just Strawberry?

[Megatron1505]

They do other flavours  :o

[jdl1279]

Grape, peach, and chocolate off the top of my head, but I'm sure the shop I usually get cigars from has more.

[Winchy]

Pick n Mix cigars…..cool.

Ooof, choices, choices. Roughly how much are they JDL? I know different states apply different taxes, New York being a massive rip off.

[jdl1279]

Those are pretty inexpensive, if I remember correctly their either $1 for single or double, and come in packs of 5 that are less than $5.

[Megatron1505]

Oh shit…..this might end up being a big box 

[jdl1279]

Just don't ask me to start making choices for you, unless you want to really invest

[Megatron1505]

Oh hell no, only needing the cheap and cheerful Phillies
