-1 Salvation Army
-1 Salvation Army
So my house closing is next friday. And I have some furniture in the house still. Called Salvation Army so they could pick it up and take it to the Southern Indiana Tornado Victims. I ask for a time frame and a phone call when they might be 30 min out because its at least a 30 minute drive.
They call at 9:40 to give me a reminder. The driver apparently got there at 9:40. They call at 10:00 to say the driver has been waiting for 20 minutes. Driver leaves at 10:15, and my brother gets there at 10:20 and passes the truck on the way.
WTF?!?!? How am I supposed to help if they're gonna be jerks about it? He was pretty pissy on the phone when he called at 10:00 also.
ok
now she is telling me the ultrasound is because she is measuring smaller than last week and he fears she is leaking water. If that is the case he will induce today.
Oh boy
**** I am nervous
Salvation army I'm sure does a lot of good, but I can tell you first hand, working with them is a freaking nightmare.
Maybe
oatmeal raisin or chocolate chip are my two favorite cookies.

If nothing else, just put it on the curb with a Free sign, it will be gone by morning.
My experience has always been they are more than willing to take your donations as long as it is on there terms and they way the want to do it.I could call Goodwill too, I was just trying to donate it to the Tornado Victims in Southern Indiana. Getting rid of them won't be a problem. Its a nice couch and end tables. But trying to help out those in need seems to be extremely difficult.

Yup, such a pain in the butt. Maybe if their workers would have better attitudes also.
Yep. If people steal the donations the board of directors can't line there pockets with $100 bills.My wife likes to check out local Goodwills when she rides with me while I'm working. I will drop her off and come back and pick her up an hour later after my sales call.
My favorite was one in Champlain, IL. When they opened, they had an Armed Guard. To make sure people wasn't stealing anything. The inventory was 100% donated and they were that worried about theft?????
I don't know about Indiana, but in Ohio if you get public assistance in cash, you have to work something like 80 hours a month. Alot of the people working in Goodwill's there are doing their volunteer hours for their public assistance. That's why their attitude is so crappy, they don't want to work there.
There's nothing like that in IN that I am aware of. But I like the thought process.
