On Monday, 15 December I visited the Goodwill store in Round Lake Beach, Illinois (Store #088)…read more My visit was pleasant and uneventful...until I went to pay for my items. Employee #180709 performed in what I can only describe as an appallingly rude, discourteous, and unprofessional manner. Employee #180709 did not greet me, did not respond to my greeting, did not speak to me; he simply stood there glaring at me and then handed me the receipt without a word. Employee #180709 presented an attitude of disgust and disdain for my custom, and behaved as though my presence there was offensive. I don't know what I did to warrant this behaviour; I stood in the line quietly, waiting for my turn (there was only one cashier available at 11am), and then greeting him in a friendly manner. Employee #180709 appeared to 'glare' at me as though my presence was an offence to him. Employee #180709 behaved in what I perceived as a bigoted, racially-biased manner, which made my visit there thoroughly unpleasant and made me feel unwelcome. I am very disappointed, disgusted, and displeased by the behaviour of Employee #180709 and do not recommend him or this store to anyone.

This is an edit to a negative post I made about Pioneer Center. After a visit to their location…read moreyesterday I realize that the concern is much bigger than the Pioneer Center has control over. I specifically went in there because I could not get through to them via phone. My goal was to obtain my daughters psychiatric records so that I could provide them to her new psychiatrist. I happened to stand in line behind a mother with her son going through the same turmoil and confusion I had experienced there. Come to find out that the center is closing due to lack of funding . Shame on this state and the corrupt, dishonest, negligent government and their beneficiaries. I'm from Colorado. Taxes on my house for one year= $900. Here......$3500!!! Where is all this money going???? If this state is all you know...do yourself a favor and try another!! God bless those poor ladies at the front desk for having to deal with upset parents such as myself who don't understand and point the finger at the wrong person.

I highly recommend Spay and Stay.

Cathy and Carol will 100% guide you properly and patiently. Saying "goodbye" to a loved one who's passed, is one of the hardest things humans have to go thru. Im still healing from the loss of my grandfather. It's been almost a year since l've been here and this is a long overdue review. One of the downfalls of loving someone so much is when they leave us, it's so much more painful and heartbreaking. Grief is love with nowhere to go. Drowning is an art of learning how to survive, be it in water or emotions. Northern Illinois Funeral Services helps you start the healing process. That's extremely invaluable for me. They say you get what you pay for, but here, they go above and beyond what's expected. Grateful for the two earth angels at Northern Illinois Funeral Service
