This is why I am the HELPER -helpmeet!




This is why God created me to be the HELPMEET! After reading on Lisa’s blog about Sam and his conversation with their internet provider-after Lisa got the total run around with them…see her blog! I wrote this in her comments:
I think Sam must be his father's son or Maybe Dave is Sam's father.. Anyway, we had a similar problem yesterday with a patio set that we bought at WalMart on clearance from WalMart to use down by the lake. It was marked down from $325 to $175 so we thought that was a good deal. They had one sitting out on the sidewalk in front of WalMart and the guy who was assembling the matching loveseat set said there were lots more in boxes inside. We paid for it THEN found out there were no more in boxes- there was just one in a dismantled box but were told that the manager said that one was SOLD- (to himself I'm sure). Anyway- we bought the one on the sidewalk- all assembled- and loaded it on to our already loaded down truck. We also bought the matching loveseat set in a LARGE box. We got it all home and after unloading it found that there was a hole in one of the cushions- the covers for table and chairs were missing and there were several glides missing from the chairs. I called WalMart and talked to them and they said all we could do is bring it back and have our money refunded. Groan. This morning DAVE called the Customer Service number on the sticker on the table-(also a WalMart rep. but not at the local store.) After talking with MY HUSBAND, H e is going to: Send us a new cushion, send out the covers and send out the glides. How does Dave do that???? This is why I am the Helper and not the one in charge! I need to remember my role and let HIM do the talking!

That's a cute story. How frustrating, huh? But it looks like you got a pretty good deal on a patio set! Way to go Dave!
