otoh, by not simply replacing a worn out frame, you're deliberately

should do is bother to actually use them.
otooh, but fixing a frame that is otherwise still serviceable he not
only avoids wasting resources but keeps a valued old friend by his
side for years to come.

Not everyone buys into the throwaway world or has to always run with
the supposedly latest and greatest.

Of course, since you're goal wasn't really to comment intelligently on
the thread, but instead just to flame Jobst, I guess that's
irrelevant.
jim beam is a salesman in the `real world.'

gosh, the terrible things bored people will say when having a slow day.
only 3,418,427 unread web pages between you and being able to not be a
schmuck in public.
Is it something I said?

yes, you said a great deal.

1. that you're bored.

2. that you regard try picking a fight as somehow entertaining.

3. that you hold your employers time in contempt since you're posting
during the hours they pay you to be doing other things.

4. that you have no guilt for making negative or false presumption.

5. that you have no guilt for using presumption to provoke. [see point
4 above.]

6. that you need no provocation yourself.

7. that you're so slow-witted that it takes you the better part of a day
to think up a response when your provocation gets a reaction.

i could go on, but further analysis of something best summarized as
"schmuck" is boring.

But you are a salesman, so why all the howling?



i'm simply pointing out that you're using false pretext for provocation.
if you didn't, i wouldn't. schmuck.
