Return to sender has become a way of life. The problem, as I see it, is the blending of
hyper technological advancements along with the multi-cultural distribution of
goods.
As the high-tech world rushes to be the first to market with
their latest gizmos, the ripples of this product flow cause the less skilled to
speed up their contributions. Add to
that the indecipherable translated pamphlet intended to be used as instructions
and failure is a guaranteed outcome.
Of course, it would be my preference to include with this
assessment of our times, a possible solution.
Simply stated, however, I have no suggestions. I as well, am entangled
in this web of high-speed, low-quality lifestyle shopping.
In the absence of brick and mortar we become captive to the
on-line narrative, counting the number of stars a random sampling of the
population has assigned, identifying its level of acceptance. That is quite a low bar in comparison to standing
in the store, handling the item and seeing for yourself its quality or lack
thereof.
Free returns have taken the place of sound judgement.
As always, opposing, wrong views are always welcome.
