It's just that most of us that do a lot of business with him really respect him and love his product , that's all.

That's great! You fit his business model and I do not. I fail to understand how this makes me an 'entitled' 'Douche Canoe'.

BTW I have no idea of how someone who thinks up 'Douche Canoe' head works, but I bet it's a lot of fun in there! :lol:

Greetings it's the 'entitled' 'douche canoe'! :lol:

A couple of points, were it not profitable to distribute and resell items there would be no stores online or B&M. There would only be manufacturer direct sales.

If a store that knows when it is busy and when it is not chooses to under staff, I refuse to reward them under employing their part time staff by standing in line for an extended period of time to increase their profit margin. I don't consider that 'entitled' but I am a free man and refuse to patronize an establishment that has so little regard for my free time. When 2 tills are open 5 or 6 customers deep and 6 tills are closed, I consider that an insult to the customer. If all of the tills are open and there are still line ups the store is most likely packed (think Christmas shopping) and I have a choice of knowing I will wait or to leave and pick a less busy time to shop.

I happen to know a cashier who works at a major chain grocery store. She explained to me how management went about their cutbacks concerning cashier wages. If 8 cashiers sold xxxx dollars per hour they could save 25% of cashier wages if they could get 6 cashiers to ring up the same amount. Customers became snarly because of the wait and this in turn made shifts more difficult for the remaining cashiers. Due to customers changing store the volume at the store in question drops to xxxx - 20% per hour and the management decides that 6 cashiers are too many and drops it to 5 cashiers. Wash, rinse repeat...

I don't remember exactly where I read the statistic but the average north american spends about 2 years of their life standing in line. I would prefer that some retail establishments didn't try to get more than their fair share. Some stores seem to think that the whole 2 years belongs to them and them alone.

So if not being willing to donate my time to a retailer to increase their profit margin makes me an 'entitled' 'douche canoe' I'll wear that title with pride. How are you willing slaves doing?;)

BTW it would also appear that I have hurt the feelings of some loyal Jugheads customers and if so I would like you to point out where I insulted Jughead? I said little more than I do not fit in his business model and if it works for him, all the power to him. It's obvious that he has more customers than he can handle and it is working for him so Jughead, keep doing what you are doing. It's working!

Picking a cart full of groceries and then ditching it because you cant be served first makes you entitled. Perhaps you exaggerated on that part but that is pretty dam douchey thing to do.

It's a scary, wonderfully magic, horror show.

why? it takes 5 minutes for the service clerks to put the groceries back, certainly better than Wolffy having to wait for 15 minutes to buy his/her basket of groceries. And I agree, if a bunch of customers got fed-up of long waits and started ditching their groceries maybe management would start staffing accordingly, pleasing both customers and those poor cashiers that have to bare the looks of frustrated customers 10 deep in their line-up

You're just not getting it, he never said he wanted to be served first or that he was better than the rest of the customers, it's not about the customers at all, it's about the management

Again, not talking about Juggies, I like jughead juices, and personally kinda feel like ordering e-juice online in the comfort of my own home is MUCH different than having to go to the grocery store every few days to buy perishables. As far as Juggies goes, just order enough to last you a month and then half way through the month order again....easy shmeazy

... why am i arguing about grocery store line-ups on a vaping site:( done with this topic

I agree with that. I got lucky and got in early and love his juice. Even though I have the option to line jump I choose not to, because I don't think it's fair. But I vape juggle exclusively, that doesnt mean I can't criticize him nor is he exempt from criticism. I get lots of people love juggles juice as much or more then I do, but come on. This is getting on fanboy territory a bit to everyone in this thread.

Perhaps you are exaggerating. No where did I say I had to be first. If 3/4 of the tills are sitting idle and I'm 6th or 7th, then it becomes a douchy thing for the retailer to do. Being 3rd, 4th, or even 5th, I'll deal with. Perhaps you place no value on your time but I place value on my time.

Thanks for sharing. Was planing on getting 10ml to give that a try but will give a try to the Gunslinger instead. Anyone knows the difference between 6 shooters and machine gun?

It's strength / amount of flavour. And the gorilla is with banana added. I'm actually vaping a bottle of 6 shooter right now that is growing on me. It's only about 10 days old but i was kind of sick of the 30 different fruit flavours I have so I tore in to it. Even in the last few days it seems to be getting more complex and layered.

I also have about 20ml of Bobba's bounty coming in the mail that someone from another thread sent on for free because he didn't like it. It will interesting to be able to compare the two.

Curious myself, I'm guessing the machine gun is an extra flavour shot, but I have no idea. I'm about to finish my first 60ml of the Six Shooter (and have another ready to go, really love the 007), but I'll probably order the Machine Gun when he's open next week.

I was going to ask what you thought of it, remembering you had ordered some, but I figured you were letting it steep. Glad it's growing on you, it does get pretty complex.
