New home location and starting over - and a target of weather

[Katrina]

Good Idea , however make sure a dumb employee doesn't sell it out from under them when they get called to pick it up. Son 2 did that, ordered a generator on line for pick up, He said when he was called he told them he would pick it up AFTER he got out of work (3:00 pm that day),went to pick it up after he got out of work same day it came in. The store wound up giving him a more expensive(better)model of generator because an employee sold his to another customer, even though my son's name was on it AND the date/time he was picking it up.The doofus thought Son didn't pick it up and it was fair game. My son was livid and he admits made a bit of a scene. The store now has made sure that if you order to pick up, they give clients 2 days before it goes back into stock.

Doofus should have gotten well chewed and pay docked and / or canned.
