Dear People Letters

Snips of phone screen above. I had several pop ups showing the photos I took and where and when and names and addresses

DEAR BLOGGERS, sorry this is so long, but it IS Saturday and I hope it doesn't take to much of your time.

***********************************

Dear Google, please stop sending me these photos I took from my car window and uploaded to Google photos.

I do not want to post the photos on the business websites show everyone in the world who took the photos. (its a dumb idea, since no one would see them unless they were already on the website of the business, so what is the point?)

I uploaded 100 photos taken in Village of the Arts and instantly these pops with all info popped up on my phone, telling the name of the business, the address, days open ETC. Just from me driving by and snapping a photo. 

Village of the Arts is a live/work community. Artist are allowed to sell whatever they make from their homes. Special license is require to run a business from your home.

I did not know the names of the business or which homes were/were not a business. At first I thought it did that for every photo, but it was only the ones that are a business.

****************************

MY MAD MIND THOUGHT.... If you are living off the grid hiding from someone, do not take a photo of a business, or a person or dog or cat in front of a business because They Are Watching and can Tell Where you were when you took the photo...

Just so you know.😋😋

Dear NBC, I don't care if Peyton Manning and Kelly Clarkson are co-hosting the Olympics but just in case some of my blogger friends care, now you KNOW

Dear Myra, of  Respice, Prospice, I hope you don't mind that I borrowed your idea of writing letters to people on my blog Post.. You do it so well on yours and I Hope I do to.

Dear McDonalds, my friend Melinda was on her way to work and the line at your window was very long, She parked and went inside to grab a breakfast sandwich and was told NO, she could not order and pay cash. She was told she had to use the automated kiosk and use a debit/credit card.

You refused to take her order unless she went through the window.

I AM SHOCKED TO THE CORE.. Just be aware, She is spreading the word about you as I type on FB and other places. How Dare You Refuse to take order and cash?  The MadSnapper knows, soon the world will know.

I have one more silver dollar and I am taking it to McDonalds to make a stink!

Sorry folks, I have ONE MORE letter. 

Dear Lee Child, you are one of my most favorite of authors. I am in the process of trying to read book #28, after reading all the others, and am not really happy to find that I have flipped back to 1992 and the Jack Reacher I know and love, is not the same guy. I miss the real Reacher. The book Reacher, not the TV series Reacher, what a miscast that is. 

I am happy to see #29 Jack is Back and hitching rides. I still love you.

Dear Progressive

I had the most amazing experience this past week. Our Auto Insurance Policy hit my email and I gasped out loud at the cost. I remember gasping 6 months ago and this was over 100 more. Last time was up 100. I decided to fight the automated call answer system and see if they could give us a discount.

One ring and she answered, she was super intelligent, she asked, I answered, and I thought I had a real person. No buttons to push, no did you say yes? When I gave her DOB, I said Sept 5th, 1944, and she did not say please speak your date of birth in this manner. She said thank you, I see you have two policies, which do you want to speak about, Homeowners or Auto. I said Auto, she thanked me and said, do you want to pay your premium's? I said, no I want to talk to someone about getting a discount.

While picking myself up from falling out of my chair, she said, I can help you with that, I am transferring you to and agent that can help with your discount. Since you are a Diamond Client, you will be first in line for the next call.

The line rang once, Anthony was on the line and ready to help.  His voice had a smile in it, and when he had my policy up, I told him the long story but will give you the short version.

I said we are 79 and 86 years old, we drive to buy food and doctor visits and put no more than 20 miles a week on both trucks. 2004 and 2007, we only have liability, the cost is just too much.

Not only was he pleasant, knowledgeable, he was fun and friendly and explained WHY it is so high in Florida, but then said, let me put your information in the calculator and see if I can help you.

I ended up with $124.00 discount, it was immediate and also got 12.43 cents off the one I paid last time.

I received the new updated policy as soon as I hung up and an email stating 12.43 had been credited to my charge card, which is how I paid it last time.

When I thanked him and told him how good he is at his job, I said Now with the 124 off I can buy 3 more loaves of bread. He roared with laughter and said, I KNOW! I pay 3.24 cent for BREAD.

I said hang on, I can remember when GAS was 50 cents a gallon in 1959, he returned with, I wasn't born then, but in 1989 when I got my driver's license it was 2.50. 

Did I say I love Anthony?

This was the all-time greatest service I have ever received on a phone call to a business.

Of course, we have been with them for years, and have never filed a claim on home or autos.

That is a rant for next time, Paying Thousands of dollars and never using it. Oy VEY
