If there was one thing I hated almost more than anything else (although — I’m sure grocery shopping is a close tie), it’s moving. The whole process couldn’t be more stressful: the looking for a new place, signing forms and leases (and that’s just the beginning!), packing boxes, throwing out and donating things, and then of … Continue reading »
I’m all about giving kudos where it’s well-deserved — especially when it comes to good customer service (and it’s pretty rare nowadays).
