    Yes, but how many of them - after causing this much delay and misery - end up NOT having a Club Card and thus were unable to be shopping there in the first place?
    At my store? None. If you didn't have a membership card, you couldn't even start a transaction. You had to have either a card or a one-day pass from the desk. And yes, that applied to the self-checkout kiosks too.

    I think I've seen sucktomers like that in my days at the wholesale club.

    If anyone says a form of, "Trust me," don't trust them.

    Some sites like that handle distribution through a content delivery network, such as Akamai or Cloudflare. If the CDN doesn't update its cache of the original source promptly, you can see behavior like this. I can't tell whether NAR actually does this (or if so, via whom), but that possibility should be kept in mind.

    EDIT: It's Cloudflare. I just saw a Cloudflare error message while following a link to an individual story.

    I've found that NAR gets refreshed more often, and gets more stories than the others -- but then I check it maybe once or twice a week x.x Seemed fine to me the other day, aside from the Like button throwing some "unknown referrer" error message.

    New stories on "notalwaysright" today, but nothing new on "working", "learning", or "hopeless".

    Hopefully just a vacation thing. And yes, I did try doing the forced-refresh.

    Maybe the guy is on vacation.
    I was just there. Looks like he's back from vacation.

    It is working for me. I have had problem with the site getting "stuck". I found that refreshing the page (F5 on most browsers) can clear it.

    Are the "notalways*" sites updating? I've been seeing the same stories since the weekend. From two separate devices, on two separate networks. (And separate ISPs for that matter.)
    I've seen new stories on the Facebook pages, but their main sites don't seem to be updating.

    The real problem here is at the beginning: "I’m a manager at a restaurant with a drive-thru. A customer pulls up to the speaker box and proceeds to tell the order-taker that she had come through last night and her three chicken sandwiches were cold. She says she spoke with a manager and was told to come by for a replacement. The company’s policy is just to replace the order with or without proof."

    This sort of policy is exactly WHY there are so many scammers and SC's running around!
