Stealing from kids :(

Someone came into my backyard last night and stole my 3 year old's trampoline!
My son is so heart broken :( He loved playing on it everyday.
It's pretty sad that someone would steal from kids :(

So the other day was the most recent siting from me that I saw yet another police officer driving down Ouellette and sure enough he had been using is cellphone. Now I know that a lot of them do not use them while driving.
So today I tried finding out how to at least find out how to report seeing this happening with our officers and even EMS drivers. I had looked to see if I could send a private msg through Facebook. But they have it where nobody can send them messages. So I posted it to there wall..... Within a matter of a few short minutes it was deleted. I tried reposting it but now they have me banned from posting things to there wall.
I'm not looking to get them into trouble just wish that those officers who think that they can get away with it. Many of the other officers don't abuse the right because of them being police officers.

Hey delivery guy - That how you get your cute lil car?

I have gotten food from you guys for many years. Today, I've just had an unacceptable experience with your company, and I find it pretty shocking. The food was delivered fine and tasted good. The problem was with the customer service aspect. When we placed our order we stated it would be cash. The delivery guy came with no change. He said that we were his first delivery of the day and had no suggestions on how to rectify the situation. His silence implied that he should just keep it. When he was told that he'd need to get change, he said that'd be fine, but that he had 2 other deliveries to make. We agreed to that and he left with $40 for a $29 order. That was at 5:30 p.m. We waited until after 7p.m. before calling.
When connected to Customer Satisfaction, the clerk apologized and put me on hold to call the store. He came back and said that the driver would return with our $10. It was treated as if that was an acceptable outcome. A delivery person takes advantage of a situation and the solution is to just send him back? He said that he'd be "coached" accordingly. When I stressed the fact that as a person dealing exclusively in transactions you should be prepared. Cashiers make change! The clerk on the phone kept blankly agreeing with "exactly." The complete lack of sincerity was frustrating. I asked directly if that was all that would be done. He stated that yes, all that can be done is that the driver return the change. He proceeded to suggest that it is my responsibility to inform staff when ordering that I'll need change. No. It isn't. There was absolutely no "Customer Satisfaction" had here. Within minutes of ending the call, as expected, the driver returned. As he came up to the door, he stuck his hand out with the $10 and said, "Here." He whipped right around and left. There was no stopping, no eye contact. Most importantly, there was no apology. No recognition of fault. Nothing. While the food is tasty and the prices are good, the disrespect cancels out the bargain. Sarducci's Pizza will happily and respectfully reclaim our business.

Get off your phone!

To the woman driving with the license plate RDAISY (not to mention all the support ribbons and bumper stickers about how life is precious)...GET OFF YOUR PHONE! I watched at 8:20 this morning as you flew through the red light at Grand Marais and Curry without even a thought. Maybe your life is not more important than that phone call but mine sure is.

That Brat on the stage..

People judge before they even know, we have all done it, we have all made assumptions before asking the questions. My son is five and was blissfully excited that his beloved student was doing important stuff. He loves to be involved, to give hugs, to hold hands. He gets loud and boisterous, often excited easily, and may come off as a brat for doing some of the things he does. Before you judge ask.. he's five and is autistic. so your "brat" is not and far from your first assumption. I say let kids be kids and choose my battles to pick when it comes to the things and choices he makes. I am not going to force him to sit still. He is very much allowed to be a kid, he has rules that I have him abide by and a learning curve that comes with it. Before you judge, just ask. I will let you know if he is being a brat.

Bad driving

To the person driving the silver GMC Terrain on Tecumseh road. Nice driving. Since when is it ok to drive down the center turning lane for 3 blocks then decide to cut someone off to move over into the correct lane that you should have been in and without signalling? What an inspiration you are to new drivers everywhere.
