Big Time Corporate F^*k$!

Welcome to the land of the rich and greedy. I never thought I'd see that day that a company would turn down money. Not just even here's twenty bucks but like a thousand dollars a year. But apparently that is not enough to sooth the minds at huge corporate organizations.

In the last month I have been turned away from two large companies and the use of their products. Even though these products, on the shelf, range from $1 to $30. So do the math, a thousand dollars worth of items that cost this much is a lot of items. However if you can't afford to make/use ten thousand copies of the items your shit out of luck.

It blows my mind that greed has surpassed the "we'll take any money" to "we'll only take $10 000 or more." I say this because a rep I used to talk to for the one company said what I wanted was do-able. He got fired hopefully not for giving the little guy a fighting chance.

I agree. It's bullshit. Like I understand when it comes to "in order to do this the order needs to be $100 or more in order to make it worth our time", I get that. But turn away a $1000? Like fuck off. Would you care to elaborate with some more specifics? You've peaked my interests enough to ask you to blog more. I know, I know - shameless...

Do you have my email? I can tell you through there I don't want to trash the companies as I still might try to do business with them if I can.
