Worst items and things to be offended about.
|
We received a sample free box of
"Tattoo" candy
bars to see if they would sell. Wonderful graphics, very attractive packaging, great. Very tattoo looking. They were selling well and artists were buying them. They loved them. When the box was getting low we noticed the wrappings on the bars were getting greasy looking. So we took a look at the content listing. The manufacturer called to ask for an order, how they were selling, how we liked them, "Oh, they were selling fine and customers liked them, but in my personal opinion I though it was criminal to sell chocolate bars made of 60 to 83 percent saturated fat and the rest cholesterol. What were they trying to do, kill us off ?" The salesperson just gave that guilty nervous chuckle in response, as
if to say, Tattooing and piercing is big business and has come to the attention of
profiteers
(both inside our industry and outside) I take it personally. How about you? I remember in the 80's when we called around trying to buy a sterilizer
and how they hung up the phone on us Wes Wood |
