The next day the box of tissues arrived by delivery, in an oversized box filled with pellets. Such a waste of manpower and material resources. And I could not understand why tissues were ordered via amazon, but other items on their shopping list just waited until the next shop? Nothing about it made sense to me. (Americans  )
It is one of those memories of ridiculous actions that I can never forget. |
That's not an American only thing. That's a lazy person thing not matter where they are from.
