(Remind me to avoid Tim Hortons too. )
good grief!!!
Yes, this is a hilarious thread!!
I did it as a laugh but SOME people took offense..
I knew this thread was going to be vicious the second ppl started to defend the annoying practices of TRU or any other corporate chain.
Joke was on me I suppose tsk tsk
So why is it my fault that WE the working class are used and abused? ((Bored) yes I have worked retail ((bored)) yes I have and work with customers. I did it all for a Klondike Bar.
and bloody hell YES i do not feel sorry for any member of the working class who has to say dumb things. If they don't like then they should do something about it - even if it hurts.
BTW, there is NO credible logic which assumes that if we do not LOVE the gift receipt crap and continue to discuss the issue via email with TRU then we are NOT helping our poor working class freaks at the check out counter? the logic is astounding.
And if we ask for them to Unionize (which WILL be in my next hilarious email to TRU by the way har har) then we are causing the collapse a TRU store or chain and/or somehow trigger another economic disaster. OH PLEASE
and I still don't apologize for using Terror Drone in that email. NO SHAME HERE buddy. I don't know about you but my self esteem is not that weak that I care what others think. Neither should you. ((did you come out the TF collector closet to your friends and family yet? **ALL** of them? Show them your toy shelves? your nickname on Cybertron.Ca? What will the gang at the bar think?))
In either case, I will not walk to the TRU counter or any check out line and hang my head in shame and say " I am worthless and powerless. I would like to take 59 gift receipts because I don't want to see you fired. Don't unionize. Fix your pets. Stay in school kids. Don't do drugs. Flush twice as a courtesy. I am a bad person."
Sooooooooo, it really makes me wonder why SOME ppl are taking offense to my offense. Hmmmmmmmmm
It had nothing to do with TF toys it seems. I KNEW IT!!!
MODERATOR -- I recommend that this thread be closed so it can be moved to GENERAL DISCUSSION.
I am sure we will have lots to talk about there.
I think that I will start a few Threads there too:
"Take the Gift Receipt and get to keep a job"
"How to be a cool Collector and not one of THEM"
"TF Conventions: Stereotypical Collectors - to the Back of the Bus"
"How to help keep the Working Class down - no rocking the boat. It is bad for business."
"Self-Esteem and Acne."
"Herbal Tea erodes your backbone"
"Capitalism is for winners - you don't matter"
"Economics - it is more complicated than you"
"Corporations are more powerful so write your letter of complaints like it is to an Person with Rights"
"How to Change the World: Don't attack the State - become the State"
"Don't be a burden to Society: How to attack a Police Officer's fist with your face"
and
"Lack of Real Democracy meant we only have Consumer Rights" (Dont send emails of complaint - it wont help. No one cares about one person like you. Would you like a gift receipt? Coke or Pepsi? Lethal Injection or Electric chair)
I got a million of them - I can go all day...because i was not stuck in line listening to a gift receipt nonsense.
Once again:
