photoLife should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - martini in one hand - burger in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "Whooooooo what a ride!"

Blimey, what is it with some people that makes them feel the need to moan about everything, even the offer of saving money?!

Our employers have joined some scheme which gives us discount on purchase of Apple products (we have other similar schemes with some other companies too).
Typical discount is in the 6% - 8% range, which is better than nothing.

Which makes the following email from one cow-order particularly puzzling -

What does the discount amount to these days? There seems to be an alternative Apple store in the US with discounted prices. The discount amounted to about 6% when I checked. Does the same apply here?

I must admit, the restrictions on what you could do with your purchase (not allowed to sell it on etc.) always seemed too much of a disincentive to take up the offer.


Huh?!

You are being offered a 6% - 8% discount and yet you STILL whinge about it?! Simple answer - just buy elsewhere and spend more money and be done with it.

Given what he plans to buy, that would be a saving of around £80. But oh no, he wants to whinge about how unreasonable it is instead.

GAH!
