Customer Service from Best Buy

best-buy-logo

Here is the story:

I, like the brilliant guy that I am, dropped my iPhone headphones on the ground and rolled over one of the earbuds with my rolly-chair.  This happened a few weeks ago, but I decided last week I wanted to replace them before I went to Atlanta.  So the night before my flight, I went to Best Buy and bought myself a set of $40 Apple headphones for the iPhone.  I get home and open the box, and out falls a GROSS pair of USED IPOD headphones.  I checked the box again, and not only did it not say iPod, it didn’t say used either.  According to the box, I should have received a NEW pair of IPHONE headphones.  You can imagine my frustration.

Yeah, I am That Guy

A good friend of mine, Ted, let loose an awesome site a couple of weeks ago.  We have all been “that guy” at one time or another, and Ted has now given us a place to rag on one another.  YeahIAmThatGuy.Com is a genius place to go and complain about “that guy.” Go check it out, and submit to the good cause.  You can also hash tag #YIATG on Twitter.

Social Networks

I was looking at my Analytics a little bit ago, and I was noticing how much of my traffic comes from my social networks.  In the last few weeks, it has surpassed direct traffic.  Pretty cool if you ask me.  I resisted Twitter for the longest time, but now that I have embraced it, it has benefited me emmensely.  In fact, hopefully some of you that are reading this came here from Twitter. I could go on and on about Twitter, but I will save that for another post.

Dakota Danner

I got a new puppy, and her name is Dakota.  She is rediculously cute.  Jessi and I are so happy to have her as part of our family.  I just took a wide angle lens out in the yard with us the other day and took a few snap shots, so I thought I would share them.  She’s pure American Pit Bull Terrier.  What a great dog!!!!

iThemes Media

Yesterday I started my new job at iThemes Media.  If you stop by my blog very often, you know who they are because I talk about them all the time.  This is a really exciting opportunity for me.  I by far have the weakest skill set in this office, and I love it.  I am surrounded with people who are excellent at what they do, and I am absorbing everything I can.

James, the designer, is fantastic.  When he comes in on time (I hope you are reading this James), I really enjoy seeing some of his step by step processes of making logos and site design.  Besides being a great designer, he is also great if you ever need to be insulted or cut down.  Thanks James!

Chris, the resident code ninja, sits next to me and expands what I know on a minute to minute basis.  If it has a a keyboard, he can run it and tell you most things about it.  When he gets in to words I have never heard, I just nod my head and hope I can remember it long enough to Google it after our conversation.  Great guy too.

Then there is Mr. Cory Miller.  Cory knows more stuff about more stuff that I probably ever will.  He may not be an expert designer or an amazing coder, but he has great working knowledge of both.  Put that on top of being a great people person, and you are spelling success.  I want to be a part of anything this guy is doing.

Basically what I am trying to say is that I am really excited about starting work here.  Now I guess I should stop writing and get back to work…
