Comment on Hertz' AI System That Scans for "Damage" on Rental Cars Is Turning Into an Epic Disaster

I will bring this up again like I did my last post concerning Hertz. While I was in Albuquerque, NM getting off the Amtrak train, I reserved our rental car from their website and went to the nonexistent address with no phone number or anything. After half an hour we called another Hertz and they basically told us to piss off and call the location we booked the car. I have few brands that I boycott and now they will be Nestle products (and sub companies) and Hertz.

That’s a tall order. And just to be clear, not saying we should just give up against those numbers. It’s not an all-or-nothing situation.

Just buy store brands and you’re 80% of the way there.

very often, the storebrand is usually the namebrand product with a different wrapper.

Sometimes it’s made with lower quality ingredients at the same factory, sometimes it’s equivalent.

Jepp, it’s usually the nicer packaged, higher priced products that make dumb consumers feel like they’re buying something better.

But sometimes the nicer packaged product is better, it depends on the product.

Then you can buy nestle products and feel good about it because it’s got the Kroger label instead of nestle, because store brands are generally name brand products in the stores wrapping.

Careful! Some of us are capable of flipping the package over and reading.
