 Kinkos Sucks

I just had a big blowup at Kinkos Copy Shop. Talk about the "epitomy of stupidity."
I had one copy shop print up 4 cd-rom inserts for my four books. The canon color is superior to other copier machines.
Anyway I then took them to Kinkos to have the text printed on them and to have the text formated for the new book called Mushroom Pioneers.
Anyway I went back there today after three days to pick up my orderrs and they printed three of the four inserts and cut them and then cut the fourth insert for mushroom pioneers with no text formated or printed on the insert.
\
Because they precut that particular order they now cannot print on it because of the size.
Fucked it up they did.
Now I have to wait until Mondau after Four o'colck to talk to a manager. They charge 24.00 an hour for the use of their computers with the scanners but cannot afford to hire a manager or supervisor for the weekends.
What a shit place.
This is the second time they have messep up an order.
What pisses me off is that they didn't even fill the order nor did they call me after a day to tell me he order was ready.
I read over and over the work order and I understood it but the Kinkos stupid employees didn't do the work period. What to do.
Now I have to wai two more days. I was sent money in advance for air shipment to Europe for next day delivery and now I have to return the extra bucks since I cannot mail it out today the 25 disks.
forever and a shroom

Yeah Kinkos sucks. And I would know, I worked ther for 3 years!
All my co-workers were idiots, that couldnt read an order, let alone take iniaitive.
As an artist, if a print job comes out 'funny' the customer gets a call as soon as it happens, no matter what time it is. I mean, if yer coming to Kinkos, you'll probably need it in a day or two, and won't get to pissed if you get a call at 3am
Anyway, it does suck, 24./hr is outrageous, considering all of the co-workers have their friends come by at night and give away 100's of dollars worth of merchandise. Its atrocious.
I wonder if they are hiring ?

Look up their corporate site on the web and get a postal address to send a written complaint to. You will probably get some free coupons at the least out of the deal if not more.

Yes, Kinkos does suck ass.
I had the misfortune of opening a new store in Casper, Wy. with a bunch of fucking retarded rednecks. I set up the entire network, POS's, AND did ALL layout and ANYTHING digital, as these stupid cowpokes wouldn't know how to work a fucking abacus.. I was then railroaded into a bizarre "disciplinary" situation and was busted down, even though I did nothing wrong.
Meanwhile, the reason I was in Wyoming, (bitch-ass ex fiancee) showed her true colors, so I decided to move back to Ohio. I then proceeded to print out everything I could think of on Kinkois HP 5000 (6 feet X whatever sized prints... yum!)
Well, they caught on after 2 150' rolls of glossy photo paper...
I am back in Ohio.
FUCK KINKOS!
(Especially store # 0942.)
Feel free to harass them, especially a "Ms. Williams" their CBR (commercial business rep.)
*whew*

Good idea Seuss. MJ should send them a copy of this thread too, just for good measure.
