Logic - and the lack thereof in some businesses... - GoFuckYourself.com

It comes to my attention over and over again that people seem to really have a hard time with logic. Argh. Here's the situation:

I bought a large order of content, got the discs and model releases. I now needed to get the model releases over to a partner, and the content discs over to a designer. I don't have a burner, and I figure that since the order of content was a package that they'd likely have duplicates of the discs and copies of the model releases already laying around. They'd have no problem sending those out for me, right? Nope - Not even offering to pay for the cost of duplicates and shipping. I bought 1 license - 1 license equals 1 copy, not 2 copies?!?

Does that not seem illogical to anyone else? Bah. Just a little rant.

Cheers,
Matt

How do you not have a CD burner?

that's the logical question to me, too

If I was the content provider I probably wouldn't do it either, unless you were a trusted and repeat buyer. How would I know that you aren't shipping the other CD to another webmaster in need of content?
