You know what I'm getting sick of? Upselling on every goddamned transaction

Posted by Reagen (aka Reagen) Jul 28 '10, 11:42

I know how to order cheese on a burger, thanks, and I would if I wanted it.
No, I don't want to play that extra lottery. That's why I said the price of my ticket.
No, I don't want to hear about your special offer/loyalty club/credit card/warranty, etc.

I hate every transaction being a battle lately.
