Reply #32: Don't look at me. I rebelled and can actually produce real stuff now.

I actually learned the the stuff that the Third World makes isn't all that it's cracked up to be. I guess it was that package of masking tape the wanted to stick to itself and not come off the roll. Or maybe it was that 8 pack to Ace brand "Carbon Hack Saw Blades" from China that were actually as soft as Carbon! Maybe it was the Briggs and Stratton motor on that cheap Coleman Generator I bought that lasted 30 minutes of run time before throwing a valve, then took a month to get repaired under warranty, which then froze solid 15 minutes after I got it home, but only after I changed the filthy oil left in it by the repair man, and then returning it to Home Depot and getting a Gift Card for the balance, which I still have to this day because their is nothing at Home Depot that I wish to buy anymore.

The service economy doesn't know how to service. The parts take too long to get here.
