I worked in one in college and we treated our customers like shit. Come to think of it, maybe the seller should try to find employment at a local bike shop. There are a couple here in Denver that could use a clerk with his rapport.Critical Asshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13794117033685944647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-24962122148526186942008-10-08T21:08:00.000-04:002008-10-08T21:08:00.000-04:00Critical Ass,The guy selling the R900 on craigslis...Critical Ass,<BR/>The guy selling the R900 on craigslist said he paid "something like" $1800. I suppose that, technically speaking, $5000 is "something like" $1800, in that both start with a dollar sign, and end in a couple zeros. But the insults certainly made me want to seal the deal with him. He's definitely got a future in customer relations.<BR/><BR/>SkidUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06764698065544891763noreply@blogger.com
