Thats how Yelp reviews are. One small error will lower your score no matter what the reasons are. Point is they made an error.
Makes yelp kinda worthless then

What you did was fine. They shouldn't be charging people for things they aren't selling and hopefully the inconvenience of giving people refunds will make them better. More people should do this, but you should have asked right away.
You did the right thing, TC. The onus is on them to fill each order as placed. If they can't, managers need to tell staff to cancel those orders for a refund... new order, if necessary.

After you accepted the replacement that means you accepted the offer and should have moved on. It's not about being an asshole or standing up for yourself.

He's making fun of the time I was helping my elderly and infirm grandmother (now deceased) into her bed and one of the wood things under the bed fell out. I felt very upset about this and confided in the only social outlet I had at that extremely depressed point in my life, LUE (the message board here on gamefaqs). The people on LUE then proceeded to make fun of me and insist that I likely damaged the bed by being obese and putting too much of my own weight on the bed when trying to help my grandmother.

You can get a sense of the type of community that was there that he brought it up mockingly many years later..

nah you weren't the asshole. sounds like the girl didn't do it intentionally so i don't think this was a moment where you were being taken advantage of or something but you still shouldn't have to get the short end of the stick, even if its only 70 cents.

why are you harassing tc? guys actually being a real person which isn't something we normally see on here. go be a douche somewhere else.

You're right. Being mean to joe solves nothing. Its been like 15 years and hes still the same.

I've gotten better in some ways, but yeah being mean to a severely depressed self-hating person was always a dubious strategy to help them improve.

What happened to the original ZidaneTT account?

well, I wouldn't have asked for my money back. too paltry of a number for me to care. time and effort of sitting in line and doing it all again isn't worth it to me.

However, there's nothing wrong with asking for your money back in this circumstance.

I graduated college, I no longer hate myself, I've joined several programs and worked with many therapists. I have a ok job as a coder.

It's hard because there are things like getting to the in person interview stage at google that many would consider an accomplishment, but you can also dismiss it to.

When the problem is internal there aren't many answers to "what improvements have you made" because most progress is internal too.

What answers would be satisfactory?

Improvements that you can feel. So do you feel more powerful? Both mentally and physically. Do you have that it factor in your day?
