Value Village/Savers Supports Slander - Part 1


Overview:


In order for my viewers to fully understand how I've been treated at this retail store, I will post this incident in parts so it will be easier for my readers to digest, since I'm given the long version of my story.  To recap, a Nanaimo Value Village clerk did not like that I complained about his bad attitude towards me, piggy-backed on a previous slanderous claim on my hobby, which led to my eventual ban from all Value Village stores as imposed by the district manager.


Shaw Modem & Jesse St. Clair's Attitude Problem:


It all started on Monday, Jan. 29. 2016, at around 7:30 p.m., when I came across Shaw Cable's Motorola modem in the store, made by Arris.  I disclosed the model#:  SBG5782; S/N:  ON36X8NN1R63  to the Shaw rep at the time so I can find out whether the modem was any good to me or not.  It is now 12:31 a.m. on May 30th as we speak and Shaw still has a record of that call I made that night.

https://community.shaw.ca/docs/DOC-2576

While I was starting my dialogue with the Shaw rep, Jesse St. Clair taps me behind the shoulder and then decides to pull up beside me on the couch, sitting uncomfortably close to me, making it very difficult for me to concentrate.  I told him to leave me alone:  "Do you mind?  I'm on the phone!!"  He reacted sarcastically:  "Whoa-ho-hoooo!" and walked away, implying that I was being too sensitive.

I was on the phone for a half an hour just to be told that the modem was on a collections claim, meaning that this modem was still attached to the previous owner somehow and Shaw wants it back.  I took the modem and put it in the bin located at the entrance of the warehouse so no one would get ripped off for an unusable product.  Value Village does NOT allow returns for electronics-based products.  All sales final for these products.

I went up to Jesse to tell him about the modem and to imply that I meant no hard feelings when I told him to go away while I was on the phone, but I guess he wasn't smart enough to draw that out of me.  Instead, he brushed me off abrasively:  "Not my problem!" and even told me off:  "Don't go in there, okay??"

So, I had spent a half an hour working diligently with the Shaw rep only to find out the modem is no good and then I get chastised by Jesse for trying to do the right thing?  I reported the situation to the floor supervisor and yet, it was put back on the shelf for sale the very next day, even though they know the product is no good.  I was hungry, tired, and had my patience on the phone maxed out.  I was in no mood to be given an attitude that night.

Continue on to Part 2 of the story...

No Longer Wishing for Jesse's Departure from Value Village


The way I have been treated, even if I were to be able to shop at Brenda Beecroft's stores again, I would not want to resume my patronage there.  What I had to endure on top of what C.K. did to me was bad enough  (Most of you may have missed this posting).  He brought that into his workplace and used that to slander me and Beecroft passed judgment on me by piggy-backing on Jesse did to me.

In the letter Beecroft sent me, I don't know what the hell she's claiming by saying she acted "without prejudice" on to, but I certainly don't feel I was given a fair chance to explain my side of the story or they did not give my side of the story a fair chance.  They're certainly not very good listeners.  If that's not prejudging, a.k.a jumping to conclusions, I don't know what is.

I want the (Nanaimo) Value Village to keep Jesse so that I don't ever have to do business with any place that encompasses or houses this person.  Jesse, please rot in this low-class company with a very low-paying wage rate for the rest of your life!!  I do not wish to drop my hard-earned dollars on a place that slanders and/or supports slandering me.

Value Village Did the Double Twist on Me!!


I will post the whole story from top to bottom in the upcoming days ahead so you all will understand how unfairly I've been treated and no appreciation whatsoever for your patronage.

I've already mentioned how the Nanaimo clerk, Jesse, brought my past and put a twist to it to make the floor supervisor, Cathie come after me during my interaction with a fellow shopper.  When I brought this inappropriate behaviour to the attention of store manager, Marlene Davis, she treated me like she didn't care.  When I put this arrogant lady in her place, she told the D.M., Brenda Beecroft that not only was I harassing the customers, but I was also harassing the employees.

Brenda was in her power tripping mode when she was writing her letter of exile to me because she said I couldn't shop at ANY Value Village stores and didn't tell me why.  I had to get Jordan, head of the customer care department at head office to find out the reason and to find out that my revoked shopping privileges only apply to the Vancouver area stores.

Both Cathie and Brenda made the exact same mistake.  They both listened to one side and made their judgment based on that.  I want to make this clear!!  There were no customer complaints directed towards me other than Jesse's begrudging claims to Cathie and I did not harass any employees either.  Marlene was just mad at me for not letting her dictate our communication under her own terms

Also, I will let you readers in on a little secret that Value Village doesn't want you to know when I post my situation in its entirety.  I just found this out today...especially you Nanaimo-rites.

Stay tuned...

Mizuno Wave Sayonara 3 - Better Colour Usage


Remember my critique on the use of colours on Wozniaki's Adidas Pure Boost X shoe?  

 

I said the use of the blue-white-red colour combo wasn't quite right.  The following shoe shows how to use these colours in a more appealing way.


The reason why this simple-coloured shoe still looks good because there is colour balance and colour separation.  The only change I would make is to use a darker tone of red on the tongue to break the monotony of the wide spread red and to give the shoe some added contrast.  Also, I know a lot of women like to wear pink but if she would've just stuck with white socks, that would really give the shoes some more colour definition.  Having red & pink or pink & orange together gives the visual impression of colour bleeding and we don't want that, do we?

Rafael Nadal Gets Slandered Too!!


His Shoes:


Before I get to his story, this is a shoe blog so I just want to share with you some of the shoes he was wearing in the 2014 French Open tourney.  Check out these Nike Air Max Courtballistec 4.3 trainers.



I just love the turquoise body, with the honey-comb layering all over it.  His signature bullhorn logo is pretty cool too.  Below are some images of these shoes and how they looked after Rafa retired them while performing in them the year before.

The only difference between this pair and the ones he performed in at the 2014 French Open is there is an "8" on the back of his left shoe, signifying that he has won 8 French Open titles going into the that year's event.  Click here to see how much these shoes ended up auctioning for.

His Story:


If you have been following my blog, you know of the slanderous abuse I've been shouldering for the past year and a half.  Now I've just discovered that Rafael Nadal has been taking the same kind of abuse.

It all started when Maria Sharapova failed a drug test and could face a suspension from competitive tennis for up to 4 years.  In the wake of this development, "former French Minister for Health and Sport Roselyne Bachelot told French television on Thursday that Nadal’s seven-month injury hiatus in 2012 was “'probably due to a positive doping test.'(nypost.com, 2016)  

So basically, Bachelot's rationale was if she has been as good as she has been due to her ingestion of P.E.D.'s, then that means that Nadal is P.E.D.-positive just because of how long he's performed at a high level and used a 6-month knee injury as a cover up his suspension.


My Supporting Arguments for Rafa:


I'm going to speak up for Nadal here.  I've personally suffered a knee injury, bad enough that I was put near the top of the waiting list for surgery.  I was barely able to resume work after a 4-month layoff, and had to rehab for an additional 4 months before I could participate in a (very hilly) 10-k run.  *I was able to finish the circuit in just over an hour, by the way*

The point is, knee injuries don't just heel over night.  They take time, especially if the knees take the brunt of your body weight.  My surgeon said for me to be able to run 10K only after 8 months is quite impressive.  To be able to play tennis at a very high level, an activity that requires a lot more stress on the knee is even more impressive.

Just because they are elite athletes doesn't mean they don't get injured and just because they are dominant in their respective sports with a prolonged injury doesn't mean they're lying about the length of time they need to recover in order to resume competition.  Does that mean it's reasonable to assume Chris Bosh's on-and-off blood clot diagnosis is a cover up serving time for his infractions?  Does that mean the fact that Steven Stamkos' teases fans of his small chance to play in this year's Stanley Cup playoffs (even though it was originally announced that he was done for the season) that he is appealing some sort of suspension, and that's why he's leaving the door open to resuming play??

I can understand why Nadal is still infuriated to this day.  I was just starting to get over the gym situation until Jesse from the Nanaimo Value Village used my past incident to accuse me of causing a nuisance amongst customers.  What C.K. did took a lot out of my desire to run like I used to.  Like Nadal, I can only take so much before making a stand for myself.  For Nadal, it's launching a lawsuit against Bachelot.  For me, it's increasing my blog's exposure to defend myself from wrongful claims made against me and to hold those who hurt me accountable, socially, at the very least.

Invaded My Own Blog


This is perhaps my flashiest shoe design and the most invasive to the eyes - in a good way, I would think.  I wasn't sure how I came up with this but I was definitely in the zone.  I've named this pair, the Martian Galaxy...and yes, it was designed via "Shoe Creator" from one of the 2K basketball video games.






Was there a lot of time and effort put in?  Yeah, probably  2 - 3 hours worth, but it was also a lot of fun!!  If you were to ask me to duplicate the same level of creativity right now, I'm not sure if I could do it.  I could "do it", but not quite as well.

What Kind of Message is Value Village Sending?


By not holding employees accountable for inappropriate acts at work towards customers means that people like Jesse can do whatever he wants and say whatever he wants when he has a grudge towards someone, justified or not.

Also, when you banish your customers like that and to not even acknowledge the wrong-doings of employees even once means you view me as a threat to the management team personally and not necessarily to the business side of things.

I don't think they got rid of me because they didn't believe me.  It's b/c they're afraid that the acknowledgement and admission to these allegations will put their job's well-being on the line.  That's what I sensed.  If there is so much coercion in that workplace, it's no wonder so many former employees are ranting about their work experience there.  Just putting in my 2 cents!!

Additional notes:  Marlene doesn't like to be wrong and doesn't like to be told off.  She was very dictative and was not even willing to give me an inch to accommodate my concerns.

What Company was It??


I want to recap my experience at the store and eventually, with the company as a whole first.  This will be in a nutshell.  The full details will follow the day after.

I notified Jesse that the Shaw has put in for a collections claim for a modem that I was trying to buy.  I put it in the dump bin located at the entrance of the back room to save someone else the grief.  I was treated like a trespasser instead.  Later on it was put back out for sale even knowing that someone was going to be ripped off.

Jesse didn't like the fact that I was voicing my displeasure with how he treated me and decided to lie to Cathie that customers were complaining about me asking customers' permission to photo their cool shoes.

I esculated my concerns with the store manager, Marlene and instead of helping me, she got the district manager to revoke all of my shopping privileges at several stores...because she did not have thick skin and wanted to dodge accountability.

Because I was trying to do the right thing, the D.M. and the store manager twisted my explanation and portrayed me as the troublemaker.

When I tried to give my side of the story, the head of customer care at head office says she has no control over decisions that district managers make.  Well, I guess I won't donating to the Canadian Diabetes Association in Nanaimo because their partner is...

Value Village, a.k.a. Savers!!

This should come as no surprise.  Selling illegitimate products and supporting slander??  This is the shopping experience and treatment I get for spending my hard-earned money to keep their jobs afloat??

I've given this situation every effort for as long as I can.  I can't support a company who "can't" override their district managers' decisions.  Therefore, unless there is a last minute turn of events tilted in my favour, disclosing the company that treated me very badly is imminent.  H.O. thinks I'm bluffing but that couldn't be any further from the truth.  Stay tuned...

Turning Down Business to Dodge Accountability



My blog houses pictures that show, and not just tell what I'm about.  For this company to shun me for being in the wrong when their conduct is no better of their own shows they are dodging accountability.  The store has every right to impose their own set of rules but it was the timing, reasoning, and how it was handled that has made it hard for me to accept.  I honestly can't give this company my business if they can't conduct themselves in a fair manner.  Jesse piggy-backed on a previous situation that contained ulterior motives to get back at me for disclosing his misconduct towards me.


 
 
I have concealed the identity of the company for now.


I worked VERY hard composing umpteen e-mails up to and including this blog post.  Does this look like I'm some trouble-making solicitor or am I just a very strong patron who has been greatly under appreciated??  The real trouble maker is Jesse.  Marlene & Brenda took the easy way out by laying the blame on me.

Listen.  I understand nobody wants to get in trouble but slandering me and dodging accountability is like a hit & run in my eyes, and will be perceived that way in the public's view too.  This is the exact same tactic that C.K. of Frontrunners Nanaimo & spin instructor of the Nanaimo Athletic Club used to cause me grief.  I will not stand for a second round of slander and I will not be tricked out of approaching people for shoe pics again...in or outside of this company's grounds.

N.B.  The store did something else very unethical too.  No no no, Jordan.  I'm not disclosing what that is yet.  I'm holding this piece of info as ransom until you restore my dignity.  I'm looking for some accountability here.

I Don't Hate Everybody There!!


Just because I am ranting about my experience at the store doesn't mean I hate everyone who works there.  I want to give a shout out to some key people I've interacted with:

Melissa (floor supervisor) - I think with a little more (people) experience, you can be the ideal replacement for Cathie.  You are naturally friendly and approachable.

Brian (sales manager) - Out of everybody there, you value my patronage the most!!  You are not afraid to "bend the rules" if the situation calls for it.

Jordan (H.O. customer service) - You are a very willing listener and you don't prioritize being a right fighter.  Had Marlene presented herself in a tone even remotely close to the way you've presented yourself to me, we wouldn't struggling so much in a game of tug-o-war.

I really think the 3 of you are better served working for a classier company.  Your company needs more people managers and not task-based managers with selfish ulterior motives.  Your talents are not maximized when you are given such limited control on making the right decisions, especially claiming that even head office doesn't have any control over district managers' decisions.  I really find that hard to fathom.

So does that mean they can get away with manipulating payroll that hides hindrance to the company's overall financial bottom line??  If they are doing something that is going to run your business to the ground, are you still going to say you have no control over their actions?  If you don't correct the individuals who have screwed with me, I will dandelion-seed my blog exposure online to reveal your company name and we shall see what this will do to your already-hurting image.  It's not just bad customer service you've provided, but it was a personal attack and that will definitely punctuate the low-class perception people have of your company.

Overall Evil-Doer Stats for the Past 23 Hrs.


So the head office customer service lady told me she has no control over how district managers treat their customers??  That is one of the major reasons why this company has so much resentment from employees and customers!!

These are the final stats yielded from the postings pertaining to the local retail store that shunned and slandered me.  This stems from 1 p.m. May 12, 2016 to 12:15 p.m., May 13, 2016.



There are a lot of people who I've shared my blog with who don't view my blog everyday.  This is NOT a full representation of my viewers.  My point I'm trying to make is, people are more responsive to negative things that happen to people more than the positives.  That is why certain companies would take people like me a lot more seriously.  A happy customer tells a few people about their shopping experience.  An angry customer will tell hundreds of thousands of people about what happened.  I'm one of those angry customers!!

I work in an workplace that truly understands and values customers and their word of mouth and I've just given a prime example of why!!  Brenda Beecroft...you've gained absolutely nothing by laying the smackdown on me.  Marlene...you've gained nothing by putting your bruised ego ahead of what could affect your store.  Congratulations!  I look forward to publishing the name of your company...especially not having heard back from either the D.M. and the H.O. lady.  You guys really don't care as much as you say you do.  Well, I'm going to do everything I can to make you care.

Noteworthy Stats for My Evil-doers!!


You guys are great.  Viewership is what motivates me keep on going, especially the fact I'm not doing this for a living.  Thank you for showing enough interest to read about the rough terrain that I have had to travel on to get to where I am now.  You guys have also helped me out in another way:




This is an illustration of your support as soon as I post my most current obstacle with the local retailer.  The people there have not been taking me seriously and thought I was bluffing and wasn't a force to be reckoned with.  Well, you viewers have certainly helped me illustrate that my voice affect a person or company one way or another.

Look at all of your support near the end of the graph.  Wow!! and I really haven't even tried to network - like REALLY try.  My point is, you canNOT underestimate the power of social media.

The "knockout blow" still hasn't come yet.  I have yet to mention what Brenda, the D.M. did to me and the company I'm referring to.  If I'm still not taken seriously then they really don't understand the impact of word of mouth (or in this case, the dexterity in my keyboard fingers - ha!).

Pertaining Company Matters to My U.S. Viewers Too!!


I want to give head office and Brenda Beecroft every opportunity to make amends with me.  I don't want to reveal the company that they work for unless they further infuriate me.  All I can tell you guys for now is that it's a HUGE corporate company spanning over both Canada and the U.S..

How the Nanaimo store and Brenda have treated me is absolutely unacceptable!!  Store manager, Marlene didn't like me calling her out on treating me like I'm one of her underlings and portrayed herself to be the victim in all of this and got Brenda, the D.M. against me.  Marlene, I've given you as much respect as I could based on how unfairly I was treated at your store and the preceding events that took place with C.K. of Frontrunners Nanaimo and the Nanaimo Athletic Club.  If I knew going through you first would cause such a painful process, I would've just posted without giving you any chances.  However, by being patient, you certainly can't claim I didn't give this process an honest effort.

The H.O. lady said they have no control on the decisions D.M.'s make on the people involved with their stores.  Well, you had better have some control or I'll continue to post about how badly you treat your customers.

Marlene, when you bossed me around like that, even after what I had told you what had happened, and all you care about is your own convenient agenda, how would you think anyone would react?  You are an arrogant woman, just like C.K..  As soon as I put the 2 of you in your places, you think revenge right away.  I may not have a type-A personality (A for arrogant) like the two of you, but I can react too.  C.K. - why couldn't you have just minded your own business and Marlene - why can't you distinguish between who your employees are and who your customers are??

To my American viewers:  you'd be very interested in, but not surprised at the company I'm talking about.

Message to Jesse St. Clair


Ohhhh Jesse...

Hope you've seen my recent posts today.  I think I noticed you on here today.  Are you using this as heads up to scheme up another fictitious story about me to defend yourself now that you know I'm posting about you on here?  You've already made your negative impact on me so I'm immune to any further slander you may throw my way.  Any further slander on your part moving forward will only draw more negative attention towards you.  Have fun dealing with management once I post the truth to what you were trying to do to me at your store.  Know how much bad rapport you're going to bring to your store.  You're a very smooth talker but you have taken a very unprofessional approach and you have made a very foolish decision.  

I've been inactive long enough on my blog.  Time to make a stand for myself.  Thanks for re-fueling my passion.  I thought I've lost desire to run this blog for good!!

You have some nerve piggy-backing on what C.K. and the Nanaimo Athletic Club did to me.  You've used the same method and gotten the same result.  Your ulterior motive was to avoid accountability for harassing me while I was trying to shop and you were looking for revenge because yoouuuu thought I was complaining about you.  Who knows more about my C.K. situation than the fake pro?  Uhh....was it you Jesse?

There Should be No Complaints!!


I was going to leave this post that I had composed a couple of months ago, dormant as a draft copy.  However, certain turns of events which had taken place within the last few days have forced my hand.

Yes, my shoe blog is my hobby but I also treat it like a business.  I have to, especially when I approach strangers for favours.  I'm getting better at knowing how, when, and who to approach.  When there were any complaints about me in the past, it was before I've established this blog.  Even then, the so-called complaints the spin instructor brought to my attention were fabricated, which I've realized via hearsay and the faulty explanation she provided me.

If there were any complaints at my former gym, I would've heard about it a lot earlier than the 6 months that I've been requesting for such favours from my fellow gym members.  The so-called complaint was only brought to my attention after the spin instructor saw me photo-shooting a gym member's shoes after her spin class.  C.K. only got me kicked out of the Nanaimo Athletic Club and set me up for suspension from work because she was jealous of the attention I was drawing away from her, even though I was able to prove consent to the owner & manager with this thumbnail photo-shoot:



Refer to "I Got Framed" to refresh you memories.

What I'm trying to say is, this same scenario can happen to me anywhere else if the person or staff member has a grudge towards me.  This blog was established to protect myself from such slanderous claims.  C.K. isn't the only one and won't be the last person to slander me.  Yet, I don't regret publishing how people have gotten me into trouble in the past, even though it can be used against me in future scenarios.  In a way, it actually helps me.

If my actions were inappropriate, I wouldn't be getting this:


over a 6-month span, minus an elapsed time of 3 months with no posting activity by me.  Therefore, really, I've only posted for just a little over 3 months total to produce the majority of this many views.

If a by-standing employee complains to management on behalf of the person of who I'm shoe photo shooting, you have to take it with a grain of salt because you just don't know what the underlying reason for that complaint is.  I have so much faith in what I do that I'm willing to overcome whatever adversity is thrown my way.  I just know I am meant to do this!!

Kvitova's Nike Zoom Vapor 9.5 Tour


This is who Kerber was playing against in the Real Madrid Tourney - Petra Kvitova.  This was what she was wearing but she made a slight customization.  She replaced the Nike insignia with her first name in a fancy font on the tongue of her shoe.

You can buy her shoes here.

Now I like the pastel purple itself but overall, I'd have to say the shoe is kind of dull looking.  There isn't much "embroidery" on the shoes and the adjacent colours are too close in shades (of purple).  This makes each shoe look like one continuous slab of material, especially if you're looking at them within say...10 feet.  I would darken up the tongue to the purple tone as shown on the bottom left of the photo and apply the clay colour on the outsoles of the shoe, including where the outsole curls up to the toe of the shoe.  This would give it more colour definition and colour balance to complement the yellow font and the black Nike logo.

As for the photo itself, what makes it cool is that it gives the illusion that Nike Swoosh on her right shoe changes colour as it upticks onto her other shoe.
