Parents of Infants

Annoyed

22 years ago

One of the few things I wanted for Christmas were nursing PJ's. Anyway, my mom bought me regular PJ's that button b/c the store she was in didn't have maternity (like she doesn't go shopping every week anyway). My MIL bought me nursing PJs that were shorts (hello, it's winter). Anyway, I was wearing the nursing short set last night and when I woke up (with DD next to me) the button cover was off and lying next to us! Total choking hazard on a shirt designed to use with babies. She bought them at Sears and now I probably can't even return them and I didn't like them to start with.

Annoyed.

I'd return them.

And if the associate wouldn't accept them, I'd speak to a manager. And if the manager wouldn't help, I'd call their corporate office.

I'm nasty that way : )

I'm nasty that way, too! I would take them back and raise h*ll. I would also go ahead and write a letter to Sear's corporate office regarding this product line and a letter to the manufacturer.
Several years ago I was making magaritas and the blade to the blender broke off and we didn't realize it until it was served up. You can bet I let the retailer and the maker know about it! Got a new blender - different brand. And now I always check my blender and food processor to make sure the blade is intact after use. ~ Suzie

New Trane System Has Annoying Hum
Q

The upstairs is aprox. 1700 sq feet. With a huge master bathroom over a garage, which used to never get cool, now it does. We have six return air ducts, including the larger one installed with the new system. We do not plan on living here for more than five years so we wanted the least expensive option--I think that's why we got the XR, we hardly need heat where we live. But I wonder if that's part of the humming issue. Every HVAC company that came in to quote said we had good duct work except for the master bath. Everyone said we needed an additional line to that, which is what we got. The old 2.5 ton Rudd never cooled the upstairs enough. What would they do to correct the hum? Change out the air handler? The downstairs unit does not hum, it's a 2.5 ton. It's quiet outside now at night and it clicks on and all I hear is that annoying hum! Thank you for any opinion.

I'm afraid to say that photos on a monitor, especially professional pics like the one's you have shown as an interactive web page, are HEAVILY lit. As in multiple flood lights using professional photographers. I can see in the first photo above, the floors are hazy and quite washed out. That has to do with the photographer's lighting + the web designer's tuning of the white contrast BEFORE the photos were loaded to the website. These are two things that the customer CANNOT control. I'm very sorry this has happened but these are the same floors. They are not the wrong colour erroneously named/shipped. They are the floors you ordered....sight-unseen from a small sample that didn't 'read' very well in a small sample. As for your lighting, you absolutely can change the colour of the BULB. LED is quite severe when it comes to lighting. You can soften the appearance of your home by changing the intense lighting with softer coloured bulbs. And don't forget to paint.

@HU-530461522: "My Bosch dishwasher, on the other hand, will emit a series of four slowly spaced long beeps…… about half hour apart… four times … after the cycle is done." Some models allow you to control the volume of the beeping or turn it off completely. For example, search for "Menu Overview" in these Bosch 300 Operating Instructions and find the setting, Cycle Completion Signal. However under "Menu Overview" in these Bosch 100 Operating Instructions these is no such setting. However the Auto Power Off option may prevent the beeping.

Annoying phrases.....

Most of the phrases that annoy me have been covered. I hate gifting - gift is a noun, there is no corresponding verb! I also despise "circle back", "reach out" "here's the ask" When I was still working and someone would say "so here's my ask" I had to bite my tongue not to say "you want to show me your a*s?" Who comes up with these ridiculous assaults on the English language and how do they get so widespread?"

"Nursing Nightgown"? Not sure how that works. If I use comfy sleeping bottoms then I just pull up nightgown/shirt. voila.

Just so you know, Sears has an excellent reputation for returns, without receipts and several months after items have been purchased. I've had to bring a few items in and had no problems.
I would also be calling up the manufacturer of those pjs, too, though.

Try reporting it to the Consumer Products Safety Commission - link below.
Their home page has a link to report unsafe products.

Definately return them AND write to the manufacturer of those PJ's. If buttons fall off then they can use velcro, whatever but that's awful.
