Years ago I was working for an American company sold to a Taiwenese plastics and rubber manufacturer.
Part of our business was refurbishing handsets, the most important part was the plastic case, so our new owners sent us some examples of the new cases, we unwrapped them excitedly thought thats odd most people use polystyrene chips... these are sort of rubbery.... oh christ they are unlubricated condoms used as packing
Rather apt because they sure got stiffed when they bought the company, we had one customer and a few days after they bought us the customer decided to go elsewhere.
They also laid off all the service & refurbishment staff but kept on the idiots who allowed us to have only one customer despite our comments.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment
