This noise pollution needs to be illegal.

There’s a new affordable housing apartment building in Concord directly across the street from Sam’s Club.

I briefly thought of applying for a place there until I realized that if I get put in the front of the building I’m going to have to listen to the ads that play on the gas pumps and I will go insane. (Idk if Sam’s plays ads on their gas pumps but they’re everywhere I go except my mechanic’s so I just assume everyone does this.)

There’s also a really rundown building on Manchester Street that used to be a dance club that they turned into apartments. I don’t know what they cost now but back in 2018 they actually had $450 a month studio apartments.

My Social Security income was not 3 1/2 times $450 so I wouldn’t have qualified, but they are directly behind Dunkin’ Donuts and the thought of having to hear the drive-through speaker 24 hours a day made me decide that being homeless would be better than that.

The #HomeDepot next to my house has an anti #homeless alarm that is driving me crazy. : r/legaladvice reddit.com/r/legaladvice/comme

I clicked on this prepared to criticize them for lying to encourage people to go out and spend a bunch of money, but I don’t think they’re making this up.

It took longer for these CEOs to do something than I expected it to. I’m still shocked that the drug companies aren’t having a go at him, they spent years making vaccines that now nobody will be able to have and they’re just fine with that? Weird.

It’s an #MSNBC clip claiming that the mega corporations are warning us that they will have empty shelves in two weeks.

I was so weirded out by my experience with the #homedepot employee not knowing what General Electric is, I completely forgot to mentioned that I met two #dogs. Callie and Maggie were calm and sweet and let me pet them as much as I wanted. I thanked the owners profusely for letting me pet, and walked away with tears in my eyes. I really needed random dog pets today.

Thank FSM for people bringing dogs into Home Depot.

That's completely different. So I called back, said that clause doesn't apply. Now they are helping me fix it.

I'm still livid that they tried to say it was not a covered problem. But at least my microwave might work.

The protection plan was $65. They will do whatever they can to keep from covering a problem.

You have to push back.

Sometimes you have to push back.

I filed a claim with Home Depot for my microwave and they told me they don't cover "intermittent" problems. Smoke came out of my ears. They sent me the contract so I could read it myself.

What the plan actually says is they don't cover "intermittent and non-intermittent issues that are not failures of the Product (such as poor cell phone reception)."
