    Ming, that's horrible. I think that's one reason I could never do well in a position of power. I'm destined to be my own boss sometime in the distant future >.<

    I notice two of the threads got recycled, too - good.

    Goodnight everyone! heart

He thinks you moved his thread because he thought you had something against Love Hina?
Man, what a moron. xd

I think you can get him for harassment on that...but I could be wrong.


I don't know what he thought... or IF he thought... but yeah. Not the brighest crayon in the box.

I did report him after that 3rd "hate Ming" thread. Airez deleted it and told me to report him again if he kept it up.

It amuses me, his random hate for me, for the most part. Though he is being totally childish.

I trashed the first 2 threads myself, and after the 3rd one, I just reported him.

Remember that story excerpt I wrote a while ago?

Well, I've extended it a bit and put it up in my journal for anyone who wants to read it.

    Heh. Okay, you guys, I have a question for you.

    Situation :: I ordered a pizza, and the delivery person was somewhat incompetent.

    Details :: I ordered the pizza, and that went down okay. I waited for what had to be a half hour or 40 minutes for the pizza (pizza shops only a few blocks away, but I was babysitting), even though it was early, and I know they weren't very busy midday on a Thursday. They never are. So! The delivery guy comes, but I don't know it yet, because he never rang my bell. He rings the bell next door. stare

    I don't notice this at first, because - duh, he didn't ring my bell, but then I hear some kind of commotion outside through the barely open window. I start to pay attention, and I notice that the people are talking about a pizza delivery person who's ringing every bell at building #6. They're pretty frustrated, and I open my window and yell "Are you serious? How long has he been there?!"

    Neighbor: "Yeah! He's been ringing the bells for 10 minutes!" stressed

    I yelled, "Well he must have gotten lost, because I ordered it, and I live next door!"

    Neighbor: "OMG..." scream

    So they close their windows, and/or go back into their homes. He also rings the bell at the house on the other side of mine, but somehow doesn't notice my door at all. Mind you, it's very clear that my building is the right one, with that brass "4" on the front of it. Let's make the situation worse - the door for building number 2 is about 2-3 feet away from my door. There's a staircase about 7 feet wide, a huge arch, and both of our doors are inside that archway. He doesn't ring my bell, he rings #2. The one with the brass "2" on it. stressed

    Anyway, I was on the way to the door, and I opened it just in time to catch him trying to explain his mistake to the other neighbors.

    He hands me the pizza, and I hand him a $20.

    Here's where I'm not sure... he proceeds to count out my change one bill at a time. Not only is he counting it one at a time, he's handing me each bill, one at a time, with a pause in the middle, trying to meet my eyes to see how much I'm going to tip him. Huh? What? scream

    Now, if he hadn't done that, on top of everything else, I would have at least given him a couple of dollars, but insolence on top of incompetence gets nothing from me (unless it's a restaurant waiter or something, since they live on tips, basically).

    Was I wrong? Should I have tipped him, even after all that?
PostPosted: Fri Mar 30, 2007 10:36 am


Heck no.

I hate it when they expect a tip. I usually give more than they expect, unless they take it out automatically at restaurants.

Pizza people I hate dealing with though. I had one who wanted to have a conversation with me at the door once. stressed

You did nothing wrong. -hugcling-

I think you did good, Kae. Keep showing people who's boss. surprised
PostPosted: Fri Mar 30, 2007 11:38 am


I wouldn't have given him a tip either. In fact, I would have called the pizza place and complained.

We usually get pizza delivered once a week. Well, about 6 weeks or so ago the pizza got to our house and we paid & tipped the guy no problem. When we opened the pizza box .. it was all slid to one side. part of it was actually folded over, the rest -- just all squashed together. It was frustrating, but hey - it still tastes the same right?

The next week.. same thing. Ugh. The following week -- same thing. I was so mad by then I called and loudly expressed my anger. In return - I got coupons for 3 free pizzas. And that delivery person was never seen again.

So you definitely did the right thing, but I do think you should also call the pizza place and speak with the manager. If you don't give them feedback - they may never know their delivery guy is out of control. xd

Wow. We've never had anything horrible like that with any of our delivery guys (we order delivery pretty regularly... not just pizza, but pasta & Chinese). I wouldn't have tipped him either. Tips are only for when that person does a good job at his or her service.

Same goes for restaurants. D:
