Steaming

I had been having a pretty crappy week and I figured that if I got myself a little something, it could cheer me up a bit. Of course, what I had wanted was mostly sold out everywhere. This morning I made a call and I was told that they had it in PA. I stressed to them that it would be a long commute so I wanted to be sure. The girl reassured me and said she would even put it on hold for me. I made the long drive all bubbly and when I got there, they couldn't find it anywhere. I waited around and the girl helping me decided to go find who I had spoken to. She comes back to me and tells me that they made a mistake, they didn't in fact have what I wanted. Apparently the girl I spoke to realized she screwed up right after we talked. I was so upset as she was telling me this, it's so lame that I was fighting back tears but it was just so frustrating! I told them again that I made a long drive and all they could say to me was "I'm sorry." If I stress to you that you need to be sure, then be sure about it. Don't get my hopes up and then not deliver. I wanted to yell at them for making me drive that far but then I felt bad so all I could say was "oh, it's okay." Besides, it wouldn't have been right since I wouldn't have lashed out at the right person.
