love: not having to deal with crowds
hate: having to sign those yellow UPS notifications and wait an extra day to receive everything

love: not having to deal with annoying salespeople
hate: having to deal with customer service
Case in point: Sofia ordered a book for her personal trainer and had it shipped to my house. I figured I could deal with storing a book for a couple of months. Then today, I get home and UPS had left two more boxes from the same publisher. One weighed 14 lbs and the other weighed 28 lbs. I called Sofia and she said she had only ordered that one book. I open the boxes. They are both filled with copies of the same book: Outdoor Recreation Safety. Fifteen copies! According to the invoice, they should have been sent to some place with “Bible” and “Appalachian” in its name all the way in West Virginia.

love: that you can usually find the size you want
hate: that sometimes (I admit, this is only the second time it’s happened) the store send you the wrong size
Case in point: I ordered some stuff from the Gap. Mostly gifts but also two pair of pants for me. One was great and the right size. The other pair was ankle length. I repeat, ANKLE length. And the worst part is that they are flared so not only are they short, but the shortness gets emphasized by the flaring.

Stumble it!
