For the past last week at my work I've noticed a huge amount of barely damaged or semi-defective product and even some that is totally fine but the customer returned it with some bs exscuse just plain being thrown out and I'm not just talking about small piddly little things.. like multiple $500.00 vanities being thrown out because there is crack on the wooden frame. The majority of these products are still perfectly fine (and could be easily fixed) but yet they are being blatently wasted. It's fucking disgusting to see the waste.. and i hate it. So I go to the managers to see what the fuck is up with this and why..
Essentially it's them being lazy as shit and not wanting to put the effort to get it to people or charities that might see. And they flat out told me NO they won't change what they are doing which is fucking insane. Not only would the store save a shit load of money on tax returns plus good public relations they would more importantly actually be helping people.. so myself not being one to stand for that am having to phone up all the vendors and reps that well their products in out every last one of em (their's so damn many I can't imagine how long it will take me) to get authorization from them to give these products to charities and such and get this they don't want to pay me for all the fucking leg work I'll be doing but I'm going to do it anyway since it is the right thing to do. I just hope the vendors won't be dicks about it as well and co-operate otherwise I got a ton of convincing and more phone calls to make. So cheers! people I got a shit load of phone calls and paper work to do.

Good luck, I hope it's not too horrible...
