Confused
Who knows what was said prior to the punch?
For all we know the sales assistant was a smart a s s which would not suprise me because i have been in this store many times before.
I am not supporting his behaviour but lets keep it in perspective. Worker should have known the law and given him the refund. Worker contributed to this incident himself.
No ones innocent here in my book.
If I cop an infraction for this then so be it. Are you that big a tard that you think that he was entitled to a refund? Who says that the guy has not purchased globes on several occasions and this one was a year old? If the store has a no return policy on globes then that is their right. Consumer Affairs etc cannot do anything about it and the case would be thrown out before it got anywhere.
If the area is sooooo bad then why do you return many times over? That's right because you are confused. You are not even man or woman enough to show where you live in your sig. Why is that? Do you live in the suburb?
The suggestion of having a light socket is a good one. The light gets tested and in some sort of texta has the date and a signiature (of the salesperson) placed on it. Each globe could then be entered into a book or log so to speak. This would however fix the problem of every home handyman that has wired up their enclosures themselves, now would it?
I have been away from this site for far too long. It's fine for people to have opinions, whether they are right or wrong!! That's what makes this site so goo. But to bag a particualr place, to stereotype, to assume what has happened (when we were not there), to say that a globe should be replaced, to say this and that is nonsense.
No one deserves the right to be punched out by someone physically stronger, physically larger, physically older whilst they are doing their job. Regardless of whether or not the kid back chatted back to the guy or not. END OF STORY.
I get annoyed when things like this happen. Unless you have had a family member murdered or unless you have witnessed first hand the direct results of viloence (whether pre-meditated or planned) you won't know the harm that it can do. I have had first hand experience of family members being bashed and murdered and I was also in a position where I used to see the results of these incidences first hand.
Too many people want to hit first and ask questions later. How many one hit's have resulted in the death of individuals lately? The answer is a hell of a lot.
