We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember Rhett saying
something like:

Bugger!
The irony is, the ones I ordered would have gone to a vehicle workshop
in at least two cases.

Seems a bit dubious. Why would 3M be posting from an account at "Drexel
University"?

He seems to struggle to hold down a job for very long. Now why doesn't
that surprise me?

registered with who? Did anyone actually get their glasses?

So limited companies only? A partnership, one-man band, charity or
social enterprise would all be excluded? Perhaps you should've made
that explicit up front: nothing like wasting people's time to create
ill-will.

It's just another viral marketing campaign gone wrong. Overwhelmed by
the success and number of responses, ol' Biff Mc****wit has been tasked
with getting the company out of this hole it's dug for itself through
sloppy presentation and has dreamed up an excuse befitting one of the
Generation Arsehole business studies graduates.
There was no indication at all that any applicant *must* be a bona-fide
registered company, so this smacks of desperate back-pedalling and
frankly, leaves a bad taste.

I, for one, won't be doing business with 3M or buying any of their
products any time soon.

Precisely. Thanks to 3M for wasting my time too.

Didn't realise that there were proper spastics on here, still well done
for being able to use your hands for something other than masturbating.

I'm not a limited company, but I am a genuine business. I guess I don't
qualify then?

Makes me laugh, signed up to B&Q 'trade only' thingy the other day (more
later). The two 'proofs' of being trade were (1) a business card and (2)
"does your van have signwriting"?

Easy enough to provide (1). As regards (2) I answered yes (truthfully) but
he never looked - and many tradesmen who sub contract deliberately don't
have signwriting.

According to Rhett's linkedin page, his real name is Dennis, he's
spent four years and four months in the "Writing and Editing
industry" (although he was obviously off sick when they taught people
how to spell "phenomenal"), he's a member of Drexel Women in Business
(Dennis? Woman?) and he's an alumnus of Gaylord College.
