  • Give 'em an inch, they'll take a mile

    There's a table at work right now where they're giving away free canvas bags (nice ones, too) to celebrate our store finishing its most recent round of renovations, and a woman I was helping out to her car took SIX of the things. I realize there wasn't a limit of "one per customer", but Jesus Christ, you can buy reusable bags for fifty fucking cents.

    If that had been my store the first customer would have taken all of them and left without buying anything. And then later would have been selling them to fund their next hit.

      Heh, I thought the second half was going to say " ... and then come back the next day and complain that there weren't any bags for them."
      “There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged.
      One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world.
      The other, of course, involves orcs." -- John Rogers
