"Avenger", As noted in your previous posts. It appears as though our Washington Sales Manager, Tim, had done what he could to help your situation.
Your response:
I will say this, when all this happened I was EXTREMELY pissed off by not being able 2 pay my bills, and having to walk around in the snow all nite (because I lost my place to live by not being paid on time) but, Tim Bryan @ the Olympia Wa. Satellite location Mgr. talked w/ me @ 8:15 am the next day when I came in to see if Ace was going to make right, HE WENT ABOVE & BEYOND THE CALL OF DUTY HERE, We were pretty much both emotional about this situation, Not only did Tim Bryan, make me REALIZE that even though we are pissed off, we have to realize that shit happens, that we cant control. He even offered to take the $ out of his PERSONAL bank acct. to make right, AND DID !!!!!! so from here I RELINQUISH My report here, they made what I will consider RIGHT in my situation so even though I had to walk around all nite in the snow, I personally feel that the wrong was made right...
As we had stated in our other response, We were sorry to hear that such a tragedy had occured, but as you stated "life happens". It seems as though you have come out of it with a better understanding of situations and knowing that the people of Ace did what they could to make it right. It makes us glad to know we employee people like "Tim" that go above and beyond.
I can respond to other slandered comments as this: Ace Industrial Supply sells many variety of packages (i.e. ZZ packages), sockets and drill bit sets. Most packages offer a selection of tools that are at "no charge" based on the purchase of the primary item (i.e. Saw blades, cutoff wheels, grinding wheels, etc). costs vary, based on the brand of tools that included within the pacakge. Ace Industrial Supply prides itself on customer service that satisifies any issues and ensures that customers know that they can call us direct with any questions or concerns.
Regarding the "Ponzi Scheme", i'm confused. Ponzi scheme is a form of investment fraud that involves the payment of purported returns to existing investors from funds contributed by new investors. It really does not translate to a tools supply company and the employees of Ace Industrial Supply. Much like any other store, we offer our tools at discounted cost to employees that wish to buy tools for personal use.
I'm not familair with any labor investigation within our company, but please enlighten us.
Respectfully,
David Meininger
