  • Penske Truck Rental

6/25/23

Went to job interview and was highly qualified for the position. I have 2.5 million miles of truck driving with no accidents. I didn't get the part-time job and was confused why not. The only explanation that I came up with was, the color of my skin. I am a black man with 25 plus years of driving experience. I should have known better because I don't see people of color in their ads and no/one on their Penske Racing Team. I seen the same job posting on the web again, not going to waste my time.

  • Home Depot

11/13/22

I was in the Glastonbury Home Depot on 11/12/22 and the lady in the garden tool section asked if I had bought the USAF Veteran shirt that I was wearing? I told her that I was a USAF and CT. Army National Guard Veteran also. It seemed that she believed black people couldn't be in the armed forces, and it was strange for her to question it. Plus, I never got my military discount when I check-out of the store.

  • Katzhardware

9/18/22

My brother and I went into Katz Hardware in Glastonbury on 9/16/22@ 130pm looking for some paint and the guy in that location was acting like he didn't know what he was doing and why we were asking him questions. I had a bad feeling that he didn't want us in the store, and he basically refused to do his job. I am a vet and had a USAF hat on, but I could tell he was not confutable around black people. My brother and I decided to go to Home Depot and will not return to Katz Hardware ever aging to spend our money.

Tip for consumers:
The area of town serves White People better than other people of color.

Products used:
Home Depot paint department.

  • Bigysupermarkets

6/2/22

Their service desk personal are rude and they act like they don't like their job. They are always counting the lottery tickets and close the whole area. The supervisors are right their and don't realize the problem or simply don't give a dam. I stopped going to that location because of the rude behavior and life is too short to be treated like that.

  • Stop & Shop

3/8/22

The maintenance crew at the Stop and Shop in Vernon Ct. Doesn't clean the bathroom or the bottle return areas. They go around with the handheld computer and scan the barcodes in those locations but don't actually clean anything. The urine or sink areas are not wiped down. There are never paper towels in the restrooms to dry your hands. Some customers don't like using the air dryers because it blows germs around the area. Covid concerns need to be tackled everyday not just sometimes.

Tip for consumers:
Wear a mask and try not to touch surfaces when using the restroom.

Products used:
Bring your own paper towels with you when using the restrooms.

  • Green Dot

3/6/22

Green Dot Bank refuses to pay my cash back rewards. They have a scam where they will close your account before you can receive your cash back rewards. Green Dot will blame you for their mistake and not pay you the money you earned up until they close your account. Green Dot charges fees for ATM machines that they say are free, then Green Dot charges your card for the ATM fee.

Tip for consumers:
Buyer beware and find a card with better or no fees at all.

Products used:
Chime Card. Chime has Free ATM machines across America and there is no monthly fee for service.
