kristof65 Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Make that three different frustrations. C) My daughter has been invited to an end of school year party after school on Friday. I won't let her go until I hear back from the inviting girls parent, who has yet to respond to my VMs. My daughter wants me to keep bugging the woman, which I'm not going to do. I left my contact information, she can call me back. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great Khan Artist Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 I painted marble effects for the first time today. I whipped out the Bones Cthulu obelisk and went to town. I'm happy with it, it's not professional level, but it looks pretty cool, especially in the middle of the Temple of the Written Word. But the best thing about painting marble is, if you have a bit of a tremour in your hands, it's actually helpful. When you paint the little lines inside the bigger ones, it's supposed to look like lightning, so you want that jagged effect. BTW, that obelisk is a great sculpt and would look great any way you painted it. 11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been playing phone tag, and he hasn't bothered to email one in, or leave on his VM messages. If customer A hasn’t got an email address, they can’t “email one in”…? (How are they making contact now?) If you did get an email claiming to be from customer A how would your firm be certain it is them? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We require an email address for access to our support webpage for a few reasons, the biggest being password retrieval and document download. We ask that customers email their request to us so that a) we actually get the spelling of their email address correct (there is a reason that the Military uses a phonetic alphabet - sadly most civilians are horrible with it), and b) there is site specific information they need to send in to verify they are who they say they are. Very few of our customers don't have access to some sort of email address these days. 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no reason for anyone with Internet Access to not have an email address, given the number of services available, from their ISP to gmail to you name it. Seems to me that having email is equal in importance to having water available for anyone in the Car Wash business. GEM 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know that I'd put it that way, but IMO, if you have point of sale equipment sophisticated enough to accept credit cards in this day and age, refusing to have an email address is being willfully difficult, if not outright stupid. 6 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see it this way; The carwash doesn't operate without water. The water of life for the business is money, which doesn't flow without an Internet Connection and all of the attendant support, a key part of which is Having A Valid Email Address.

I figured there were reasons. I managed to make it sound like I didn’t think there should be. My bad. 3 hours ago, kristof65 said: We ask that customers email their request to us so that a) we actually get the spelling of their email address correct […] there is site specific information they need to send in to verify they are who they say they are. That makes sense. Customer A must at least have an email address assigned to them by their internet SP that connects the sites to credit card service. I wonder if they know what it is. I used to have an: Umpty.Whatsit@Charter… email address. (I wonder whatever happened to it?) I also once had a yahoo address but I think it died? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 @Glitterwolf gonna try that tomato and asparagus combo the next time I grill! Thanks! Had a really nice day yesterday/ LadyC and I just kind of killed time most of the day,then went out for a nice dinner. Took her to shop for a bit, then home, watched the ballgame [Yeah, Cards won!] and then we stayed up watching Grimm. Oh, and this is just for fun. 2 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
