It would be great to know someone in uniform would show more concern than HPD or the FBI have shown at the rampant & unchallenged use, by civilians ( and thereby potentially our adversaries ) of the usage of the same technology the FBI requires the permission of a special judge at a FISA court to use a SINGLE TIME in the course of their investigations. After 6 months making SOS calls to the institutions I thought would care, but apparently don't, I'll post this publicly on Google Maps in the hopes someone in uniform recognizes the dangerous reality these unregulated devices pose to both our constitutional right to privacy, and potentially our national security. As an example, imagine how valuable, from a kompromat perspective, the photos on Matt Gaetz's phone could be to those who wished to have more control over the issues debated in Congress. The device you see here is perfectly capable of accessing all data on all devices within its sphere of influence. If anyone is curious, this device can be seen, 24 hours a day, in the vicinity of 1930 Waikahe Place, where I live. Those operating are perfectly at ease using it, behind Kalihi Police Station ( I showed it to them last week - they didn't care ). Wigle WiFi is free on the Play Store - stop by & check out the cell tower where there is no cell tower! Considering We recently suffered " the Pearl Harbor of cyberattacks " last year, I'm curious what the response will be of a picture of an illegal, powerful hacking device AT PEARL HARBOR will garner. If the military share the complacency law enforcement seems to have, I guess - and I really, REALLY don't want to - but I guess I should just wait for the next article detailing another cyberattack on our military, our fuel lines, or the dozens of other parts of our infrastructure susceptible to cyberattacks. Can someone with the authority to do so look into...
Read morePearl harbor commissary is usually busy so if you have the choice avoid busy times like 1600, weekends, payday, holiday. Earlier in the day is best, no lines! They have a decent variety there and far better prices than a civilian store. This is a great place to save money. Commissary is located within the Pearl Harbor, well, shopping center basically. Package store, UPS store, ticket and events to purchase discount tickets to concerts, events, even travel spots. Special tent events for sales, holiday items, back to school. Shopping at the exchange for everything from clothing, personal care items, electronics, local made gifts, Godiva and See's chocolates (chocolate boxes, assortments, See's has one of those self serve carts... this is important stuff to know. Chocolate isn't messing around 😋). The exchange has a few items that can also be purchased at the commissary. In my experience the commissary is always cheaper. Just my xp tho. I've also noticed they seem to be highly susceptible to US weather/ political climate etc when it comes to produce. It's not uncommon to see a little sign above a produce item location saying "floods in California" or "strike at docks" and an empty bin below. My guess is this has to do with getting our produce from within the US as much as possible. My guess only. Aside from that there's a place at the front that you can put in suggestions should you find your favorite go to deodorant isn't carried there, you lost something, found something, want to buy commissary gift cards etc. Oh and the nice baggers putting your purchases together are there working for tips... they don't get paid. Please tip them! I think that's the important stuff I can remember. Thank you for reading and...
Read moreBiggest complaint are the rude cashiers & "customer service" folks. While there are a few wonderful people who work there, they seem to actively try to stay to themselves, since there seems to be a lot of cliques at this commissary (self-checkout, "customer service", etc.).
Baggers are usually nice and stockers are really helpful.
Unfortunately, lots of other problems as well, from the verging-on-spoilage produce to a particularly nasty lady in self-checkout who places her hand on the scale when you are weighing produce, to some people who work there flagrantly setting aside items that they want to purchase later (yes, I heard you and I do understand some Tagalog, despite what you think I look like) and then telling you to your face that it's sold out, when you can see it right behind them.
You can bring a guest since December 2016, which is super helpful if you have to shop and your spouse is deployed, in the field, or somewhere else, and you have kids or just need a hand. A guest cannot buy, shop, or pay for anything, which is totally understandable and the standard elsewhere. However, the way that this commissary ("customer service" and self-checkout specifically) treats those guests is just ridiculous. I have been told that a guest cannot even touch the groceries, even to help me bag them so that we can speed it up and not hold up a line. I'm paying for everything, I'm the one scanning the groceries, I'm the one shopping. They're helping me bag groceries so that we can get out of here. They can't even touch a grocery bag? Are you kidding me?
Largest commissary on island (1-star) with plentiful parking and centrally located (1-star) but with the worst customer service by far.
Could be so much...
