    For some reason our pickup has started making terrible shrieking noises behind the glovebox somewhere. It happens if the fans are running.
    I scheduled the earliest appointment available and got up at the crack of dawn.
    I waited while they found the problem.
    The motor that runs the air systems is broken.
    Because the noise is intolerable for all of us except my husband who's hearing is too impaired to hear it we will spring for the repair.
    Summer gave me this look when I told her that this, probably the largest car dealership in these parts, wouldn't take a personal check, will not give change if you pay cash and will charge a 4% surcharge if you use a card.
    I swear paying for anything is getting dicey.
    I made them take a check because we have bought all of our cars there since 1968 and had a personal account until they stopped doing that too.
    I am starting to feel like customers are an inconvenience for businesses anymore.
    Summer has the best eye roll.
    Good morning, Mastodon.

        @wyatt_h_knott @NorcalGma2 They probably want a debit or credit card. Sharks, all of them.

          But in the movies, they show us that everything’s great over there. I’m joking, of course. It’s really interesting to read about life overseas.

              @NorcalGma2 the not giving change for a cash purchase bit sounds like something for the Better Business Bureau.

              Summer is quite right.

                      @NorcalGma2 You would think that "never make it hard for people to give you money" would be right at the top of the list of rules for operating a business, but apparently not!

                        @NorcalGma2 I had the same problem with my car dealer. I used a debit card instead of paying an extra 3% for a credit card. And now Lowe's wants to charge $3 to send me a statement instead of paying on-line. Business is getting too big for their britches, as mom used to say.

                            @JamesNielsen @NorcalGma2 over here (UK) the government made credit card surcharges outright illegal in 2012 - although debit cards have never had them.

                            Most businesses will still accept cheques from an older/ well known customer (it should have been on the dealers computers you have been using them for a while, although increasingly a lot of them don't even bother to hire enough admin staff to look after customers, they do the bare minimum to sell a car)

                              I wonder if my debit card would save me the fee. I will check thanks.

                                For some reason our pickup has started making terrible shrieking noises behind the glovebox somewhere. It happens if the fans are running.
                                I scheduled the earliest appointment available and got up at the crack of dawn.
                                I waited while they found the problem.
                                The motor that runs the air systems is broken.
                                Because the noise is intolerable for all of us except my husband who's hearing is too impaired to hear it we will spring for the repair.
                                Summer gave me this look when I told her that this, probably the largest car dealership in these parts, wouldn't take a personal check, will not give change if you pay cash and will charge a 4% surcharge if you use a card.
                                I swear paying for anything is getting dicey.
                                I made them take a check because we have bought all of our cars there since 1968 and had a personal account until they stopped doing that too.
                                I am starting to feel like customers are an inconvenience for businesses anymore.
                                Summer has the best eye roll.
                                Good morning, Mastodon.

                                @NorcalGma2 isn't it awful? Businesses try to get you coming and going. It used to be that they at least performed customer service

                                        @NorcalGma2 I’ve been gettin irritated at the number of businesses going cashless. Latest were big signs at a hospital clinic and fast food drive-through I saw yesterday. I think I’m going to hoard my coins scattered around the house and in jars. And I totally know I will collect and hoard “old” paper currency of the US. For reasons.

                                          @NorcalGma2 it’s just ridiculous. Here’s a good one for you the San Francisco Giants Ballpark doesn’t accept cash anywhere. They do, however, have like reverse ATM machines where you can put in cash and get a payment card out. 😂
