I filled out the Contact Us form on the ShopRite web site.
They say my information was Recieved.
Oh my.
Edit: I filled out the form at 7:36pm. I immediate received an auto-reply time stamped 11:36pm.
ShopRite operates 4 hours into the future. I should ask them what the PowerBall numbers are gonna be.
Steve and I talked about his plans for the future (still up in the air). I have his number and hope to keep in touch. Our route it currently "up for bid" so we shall see who we get next.
Fingers crossed.
Customer has an old Eaton UPS that is overdue for replacement. IT power needs are modest, but they have a radio communications system (police department) also connected to the UPS that pulls a lot of power.
Eaton provided a quote for a 15 kVA unit with a bypass switch and upgraded warranties. Total list price is over $ 40k.
I asked the sales engineer for a description of one $ 380 item that I didn't understand. He says that is a charge for Eaton to run tests before the unit leaves the factory (and for them to supply documentation of those tests) to ensure that the unit meets factory specifications.
$ 380 on a $ 40k transaction is obviously just a drop in the bucket. but this is reminiscent of junk fees that we see these days on so many products and services.
I should just suck it up and pay it, right?
