Grumbles and Gripes go here
Re: Grumbles and Gripes go here
Sorry, all, for the crappy gripes.
My gripe is that my roommate/landlord's dad and grandpa are here finishing the installation of the hardwood floors. It's great they are finishing because they started in December. It's just loud in here. I had to leave and do a phone interview in my car. Then I went and ran and I need to shower, but there is no way I can do that with them here.
I'm not really sure I understand the appeal of having the Kindle stand up. I don't normally want to prop up books to read. I guess if you're using it as more of a document viewer, I could understand that. Please enlighten me into the joys of hands free reading if you would.
Buddha, I'll echo everyone else and say that it sucks. I would tell Zane to document all the douche-baggy things the boss says. You never know when that information could be useful.
My gripe:
Our dishwasher sucks, like majorly. Dishes that go in almost clean come out even dirtier. I have tried rinsing every bit of food off, 5-6 different types of detergents, rinse aid and no rinse aid, vinegar in the rinse aid compartment, baking soda . . . everything. I ran the same load of dishes through 4 times with 4 different combinations of things and half still came out dirty.
We have fairly hard water, and the dishwasher is only a few years old (old homeowners installed it) so I thought maybe it was because of the water. However, after googling our type of dishwasher, it seems like a LOT of people have the same problems as we do with that model, with no remedy except a new washer. And a new one is not in the equation right now for us, so I guess I'm just handwashing everything, which sucks but it's better than dirty, cloudy dishes.
even not stood up, I prefer holding the platform style one. I can put my hand between the kindle and the flipped over cover and it is more comfortable. I am sure I am describing it wrong, but it is. I also use the platform one for reading while eating lunch at work.
