National Car Rental Sucks at Reservations

I reserved a 16′ Cube Van for today on Thursday.  Here’s pretty much what happened when I arrived to pick it up:

The guy at the counter said there was “nothing he could do”, and when I asked when the earliest they’d have a truck available was, he said “Thursday or Friday”.

I phoned up their customer service when I got home and they apologized and did say “We do have a confirmation of that reservation,” to which I responded “Yes, but you had no truck.”  He apologized again and said the place to talk to about that was the “counter” which meant the place I was just at who said “there’s nothing I can do.”  I demanded someone higher up that than, and he provided me with a manager’s number, which I phoned and got no answer at.

Screw you, National Car Rental.

Thankfully, Budget has an available truck which we’re going to get now.

For Sale: PS2 Slim + Guitar Hero I & II

We’re in the process of clearing out our stuff for the new move and it’s time to get rid of our Playstation 2 (Slim version).  I originally bought it to play Guitar Hero and it’s served me well though it hasn’t really got much use since the series moved to the 360.

Included is a PS2 Slim, Okami, Guitar Hero, Guitar Hero II, two Guitar controllers, one PS2 Dualshock controller, and an 8MB memory card, plus the standard power and RCA video cables.  All are in great condition though I can’t find the case for Guitar Hero II.

Before I put this on Craigslist I figured I’d offer this to my friends first.  How does $100 sound?
