Lhbs: "dont Go On The Internet"

[christmasbender]

omg i'm so with you guys

let's go down and picket the shop on saturday morning...... i believe 'he's' doing a demo...... i'll make some picket signs and if someone else can make up a catchy chant (i'm not really good at that kind of thing) we can really make our thoughts be known in the most effective way....

while we're at it i think we should demand that they bring back some of those younger brew-staff stallions who's names rhyme with 'spam' and 'wham' as the place hasn't been the same without them........ the new staff member who's name rhymes with 'when man?' is certainly a plus and is the most pleasant to the eye but unfortunately he's not as 'hands on' as the other fellas.

come armed with your mash paddles and i'll see you there my fellow brewing community shepherd-worriors

Glad I don't work for a home brew shop, tough enough getting performance appraisals from the boss let alone a community of online strangers.... h34r:

I'm glad you don't work in a HB shop with an attitude like that, I would slag you off anonymously on a public forum if I encountered you in a shop and didn't approve of something you said or did.

What if you owned a HB shop?

How would you consider a rather long thread of posts reflecting peoples, being pretty much your customer/s, by it being restricted to a forum of users of your product, would that make it tougher or some what easier to keep growing your business? assuming thats where any business is desiring to head....

2 fucked up cents.

I really expected this thread on a Saturday night, little early this week. I am going out to find a girl on Saturday night so I guess its going to be quite :drinks:

Mate nothing against you but there are a few of us that have seen lots of things in our lives and feel a need to have an opinion, as far as business goes I get what I dish out, my customers know that as well as I do. They have an opinion I may have a differing one. either way at the end of the day there is no bad feelings, right ? Its business.
Nev

Opinion is good. You'll see nothing I say anywhere (on this forum or in life) suggesting it isn't. Just me expressing my own in return.

I think addressing the issue directly is more helpful than addressing it indirectly. Opinion is still expressed in both cases.

For example - I have had disagreements with people on here that could have turned to useless slinging of insults at various points. I have instead, met said people when they live locally and shared beer. Those who live interstate have been contacted by PM to clarify any misunderstandings. Not hard to do - kind of what yardy is getting at. I now have an issue with only 2 forum members - one who shit stirs constantly and one who refused to answer any PMs long ago and is generally a rude arsehole. The first I would still drink beer with.

I've bought silicon hose from you. If it was 2cm short and I made a thread here before ringing you/pming you/emailing you and giving you a chance to sort it out, I reckon I would be a nob. You'd be right to consider me one too.

@losp: I'm not really directing this at you - a number of people have had problems with that particular guy and a number of them have posted here. I'm not sure why they haven't, instead, addressed the issue at the source, something I am now attempting to do. A lot of my responses were general rather than specific. Rather than jump in on the lynch mob, make your complaint known to the person who can make a difference (again generic rather than specific 'your').

And now for something different...

Geez, enough material in this thread for a defamation suit.

And as for dobbing the alledged offending staff member in to his boss, geez...

Arrr but you see I always make sure its 2 cm longer because i have life experience that tells me to do that. I dont think any one is a nob, some times I just dont agree. If you complained I would send you the extra 2 cm . :lol:
Relax I know you are not a nob.

Burn him he, is quite possibly a witch/warlock. Monty python vs sanity.
We may think AHB is the big ticket and has some sway but a lot of my customers dont even know it exists.
