This is probably not the reply that you were looking for trt, but I never use Amazon. They treat their employees badly, they won't allow unions, and they see no particular reason to pay any tax here in Britain ::::

^^^Those are exactly the reasons that I'm extremely happy to support Amazon, Mikey!

[mikey4444]

Really Buenchico ? You have read the links and you support the way that Amazon treats its staff ?

Extraordinary.

[Buenchico]

Anyone who runs a business MUST only concern himself with one, all-important thing: PROFIT. Absolutely nothing else should be allowed to matter. Any employer who cares one iota about either his staff or his customers shouldn't be in business. (Of course, it's sometimes necessary for a facade of 'customer service' in order to maximise profits but that's not the same as actually caring about customers). People NEVER matter in business. Profit ALWAYS matters.

[Canary42]

Rather a short-sighted view - most businesses NEED people to generate revenue.

[ummmm]

I don't think the likes of Bill Gates, Richard Branson, Mark Zuckerberg, would agree with that, Chris.

[Buenchico]

Michael O'Leary probably would though ;-)

[mikey4444]

Buenchico....sorry but I can't agree with anything you have said there !

Extraordinary.

[Buenchico]

PS: Bill Gates made his fortune by selling a badly-flawed product (Windows), well before it was ready for the market, and then finding ways to tie people into using the same flawed product (and it's equally-flawed successors) for ever after. That doesn't exactly smack of 'caring about his customers' to me!

[ummmm]

I was thinking more about caring for his staff.

[Buenchico]

I live by the principles that:
(a) caring about people is weak ; and
(b) weakness is wrong.

Ergo, caring about people is wrong. QED.

I wish I had never started all this now !

Are you on commission trt?
