Gretta and Elena are here!

Let the fun times begin!  Gretta and Elena got here shortly after noon today, so we've had lots of fun, already.  I'm so grateful for their safe trip.

We are staying at a Bluegreen resort.  When I told the front desk that Gretta and Elena had joined us,  and  asked for a parking pass for her, they said I'd have to come up and get it.  When I did they told me she had to park up the hill at another building where there is additional parking because this unit only supports one parking place.  I tell you this so that you will know better than to ever buy from Bluegreen.  (We have been premier owners for 5 years!)  Instead of treating owners special they treat us with no respect.  I walked over to the cabinet in the kitchen awhile ago and slipped and nearly fell!  I looked and the floor was totally wet.   We looked all around and the ceiling was leaking.  I called maintenance and the guy came and discovered that the ice maker above us was leaking.  He couldn't fix our ceiling tonight but he could move us to another unit.  Right, like I want to move to another unit for just one more day.  We check out of here on Monday.  So, I'm nice to them about not moving and about a pan sitting in the middle of my kitchen floor and I go to get a parking pass for Gretta and they want her to park up the hill.  She's not moving.  I'm done being  nice.  Like Gretta said, "You paid how much for this place?"  I paid enough that they can let her park here and that's final.  I didn't even have to tell them that she was here!  I understand there are rules, but I also understand that there is such a thing as sensitivity and compassion.  Just don't ever expect to get any if you ever become a Bluegreen owner.

Other than dealing with the timeshare people we're having a great time!  We are so thrilled to have Gretta and Elena here!.  Monday we'll leave and go to another timeshare, who also treats owners pretty badly.  Always remember that; the sales people are really nice and they talk a pretty story, but once you are owners you are on their NOBODY list.  Listen to the voice of experience.

  5. Yes, it makes me so sick that they treat you so special until you buy and then you become the enemy. We're having fun, anyway! Love you, Nancy!
