      I just hate some people….
      We were at Ikea when a woman walks in looking upset and flustered. Apparently SHE left her iphone at the store but a sales associate found it and turned it in. Now, instead of being grateful, this miserable twat demands gift cards and compensation because Ikea wouldn't ship the phone to her house which is 30 minutes away. It was horribly inconvenient for her to have to drive "all the way" back to the store. Unbelievable!!

          To be fair, IKEA wouldn't ship a wardrobe which I had bought from them to my house, which is about 30 minutes away. So she had fuck all chance of a phone  😉

            She's got the nerves to demand for some vouchers then? That's infuriating!

                Not everything made in China is automatically bad or made unethically.

                Patagonia, one of the companies I really respect make a load of stuff in China:

                http://eu.patagonia.com/enGB/footprint

                The obverse is that not everything made in America or England or Germany or or or, is automatically good or ethically made.

                        Still feel not comfortable with the deal.
                        Nothing against MIC, but in this case I feel kinda cheated.
                        My BELL Helmet is made in china, it fits, it feels good, no problem with it. Same with my Vans Vault and some underwear…

                          Are you disappointed by their quality or the MIC-label? As G said, where something's made in doesn't imply automatically its quality or ethics. I had goods that were made in 'First World'-countries with a horrible quality and life span whereas things made in 'unpopular' countries held up pretty well with a convincing quality.

                            I can allude to that.  Bought a "Made in U.S.A." shirt with all the fancy marketing spin, threads were coming undone in the collar and button holes the second day I had it on … totally turned me off.

                                Why is it I have no problem paying $350 for a flannel shirt but when I shell out $700 for a suit for my sister's wedding I have buyer's remorse?  Nice suit, I'll wear it again, but damn.

                                  Will you wear it twice as often as you do the flannel shirt?  If not, there's your answer…

                                      I think Wiki Leaks has hacked my phone, more pictures like this may be posted online soon.

                                      I was young, impressionable and needed the money, and Seul paid well. Don't judge me…..

                                      (It's not really me, my cousin posted it on Facebook to take the piss out of my other cousin. We're all bald and ginger, god knows where he found it  😉 ).

                                            Quite a bit of Visvim is made in China. Took me a while to wrap my head around it.
