I think all what people are saying is early on in the wtf? stage (literally yesterday), going from 0-100mph isn’t (usually) the best thing.
I mean, if you ran a biz and had a heart attack plus stroke and couldn’t communicate, you as a customer going immediately after him could make you look
real, real bad.
For perspective, this fracas on this thread just started
yesterday at 9:24am CST.
This sort of something happened to a
fellow on this site a little while ago. He was lucky that he is a very good buddy with Frank. His family/friends also stepped in to fulfill orders. Stand-up guy. He had people to communicate to customers for him. He’s lucky to be alive and lucky to have those around him.
I know there are critical differences between
@Enough Said and Scott’s situations. But people were largely communicating confusion over the Scott situation as it unfolded yesterday. I mean, the man did successfully sell stuff for about two decades.
There is a difference between saying, “Wow, Scott’s been a good seller for years. Can’t imagine this happening” vs. “Scott would never do this u fuk he’s a Purple Heart winner imma gonna find u and ur dachshund and roast u with a mustard glaze mmmMmmMmm.”
As someone mentioned, the way this probable con unfolded sure makes Scott look guilty. But that wasn’t immediately apparent.
Right off the bat, when something odd happens with you, don’t your friends cut you some slack because you’ve earned it? (for Scott, replace “friends” with “customers”).
Or do your friends immediately call you a POS and write you off at the earliest hint of trouble?
I’m not Scott’s friend or acquaintance. I’ve just bought a few scopes from the man.
This isn’t a chest-beating contest, you know?
