Richard Branson gets a complaint....
|
Coffee on key board moment :-
I'll try and explain how this felt. Imagine being a twelve year old boy Richard. Now imagine it's Christmas morning and you're sat their with your final present to open. It's a big one, and you know what it is. It's that Goodmans stereo you picked out the catalogue and wrote to Santa about. Only you open the present and it's not in there. It's your hamster Richard. It's your hamster in the box and it's not breathing. |
I'd send him back a box of the CSI cookies as compensation :D
|
funny, very funny and so well written
Mustard :lol1: |
"The potato masher had obviously broken and so it was decided the next best thing would be to pass the potatoes through the digestive tract of a bird."
Genius :D |
Class, I wonder what compensation he got for all the free advertising.
|
Seemingly none. Sounds like he got fobbed off with the "our food is world class" line.
|
pure class.now give that man an up grade:thumb:
|
Maybe i'm over-reacting here but that is the first time in ages that i've actually cried with laughter - cheers :thumb:
|
Well the writer got a personal call from Mr Branson so it had some impact... Good effort...
|
Bless him. Richard does take customer satisfaction very seriously.
I have a lot of time for him: enormously successful, but still seems to have retained a sense of decency and fair play, likes a laugh, happily takes he piss out of himself, and hasn't let fame and fortune adversely affect his personality. Ns04 |

Ns04 Do you think the staff of Zavvi would agree when he sold them off couple years back? I don't dislike the guy, but I can't believe he's holier than holy. He must drive a hard bargain and he probably can be a real wanker if you cross him. But that's what makes him successful. And fair play to him. At least unlike BA he's happy to put a Union Flag on his planes. :luxhello: |

Zavi failed as they weren't competitive price wise and it probably didn't help that they got quite a bit of their stock from Woolworths! :D |
And he does give good visuals of girls in red dresses on the new Virgin Atlantic advert :D
Not quite Robert Plant "Addicted to Love" but close...........just needs to be a bit longer LOL Shaun |
