The guy at Home Depot said that they are not doing a cash for clunkers on old refrigerators, is that right?

18 Apr

I took my 1986 side-by-side clunker refrigerator into Home Depot to take advantage of the cash for clunkers program but he said it was only for cars. I thought congress expanded it this week to any durable goods, appliances… I thought I heard it on the local NPR? Where do I take the refrigerator to get my cash for clunkers trade in?

What are we doing wrong? My husband has had numerous health problems and has not be able to get disability.?

18 Apr

In the 1980’s he had hernia repair and the following year his appendix ruptured. The Dr. told him he would start to have back problems, little did he know that he has had them all his life. His x-ray shows that he has had a neck fracture. In 1992 he was referred to a neurosurgeon and had a lamenectomy and lost most of his spinal fluid through the surgical sight the next week. He had to be re-hospitalized 4 days. In less than a year he had to have a discectomy and it abcessed causing temporary paralization. re-hospitalized 3and 1/2 weeks and the surgery had to be redone. Then in 2000 his BP was outrageous due to the pain and he had the first of three heart attacks before the age of 40. He has 2 stents, reoccuring migaines, carpal tunnel syndrome and now he is unable to sleep lying down, he has a smothering sensation. We now have no insurance and Home Depot fired him because he can’t do the work yet he can’t get disability. Now a Dr. said that he is not getting nearly enough oxygen .
We wrote to our Congressman. Sad news , even our Congressman died waiting on anything productive to be done. Thanks for the encouragement but I don’t think we have enough time to go through all the red tape of the Social Security Administration again. Even if he does have that much time, since he has been unable to work regular since 1992 he would no longer be eligible to get S.S. disability. We had three minor children of our own when this all began and now we have three minor grandsons in our care. I feel so let down buy all the bureaucracy.

Anyone interested in doing an independent national customer service survey?

15 Apr

I would like to gather data on peoples experiences in national chains such as Home Depot, Walmart, Lowes, Olive Garden, Chilis, Taco Bell, Sears, Red Lobster and so on.
My idea is to compile a team of researchers that can collect the data, a team that can interpret the data and a team that can conclude the data and submit.
Looking to focus on only one national domestic company at a time. Looking for someone to create an easily understood survey on customer service and volunteers to answer the survey.
With enough responce I am hoping that the volunteers surveying the company of choice will be diverse (male, female, married, single, divorced, all ethnic groups, different states, shoping with children, shoping without children…….)

If interested in being a volunteer or a team member please respond

Printing a digital photo–what am I doing wrong?

15 Mar

I printed a digital photo today. First I printed it on plain paper, just to make sure the size and positioning were right. It came out looking beautiful. Then I loaded my photo paper–Office Depot brand high-gloss premium photo paper–and my photo came out grainy and covered with white lines. My printer is a Canon Pixma iP4000. The software I used for printing is PhotoWorks 2.41. Any advice from you photo experts?
