People ...@ Tom:<BR/><BR/>Evidently you don't have a website. People who have fansites of a certain product/company obviously want to gather as much information as possible, similar to magazine or newspaper journalists. I for one cannot go to the store he displayed and I'm glad that I could at least see what a Creative store is like. I had no idea they even existed.<BR/><BR/>It's just part of the dedication in running a blog like this. So obviously it's frustrating to have a company shun you when you're actually giving out free publicity. It's really ridiculous.<BR/><BR/>Sadly the staff was doing exactly what they're trained to do. The blame is in fact wrongly attributed to them as they are literally doing what they're paid to do, follow corporate rules. I know that sometimes at my job I'd rather not remind people to follow some rules I find ridiculous, but it's not my place to make the call.Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01157373822570717825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8119454088016301916.post-28350696951183731262008-08-25T02:02:00.000-07:002008-08-25T02:02:00.000-07:00Oh man... this is like a bitch fight.

I don't think normal customers would notice such a small thing. Did you just put up the sign? And why can't a fan like me write about what I truly feel? As a fan, I truly felt disappointed at the sub-standard service rendered to me at the IBP. If a fan can say that, can you imagine what normal customers would say? And no, I will not revise what I say just because you think I should.kingonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15023040297025707130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8119454088016301916.post-49325003106467535762008-08-24T22:16:00.000-07:002008-08-24T22:16:00.000-07:00Hey.. to the person who said, "Staffs of Creative,...Hey.. to the person who said, "Staffs of Creative, well done at tarnishing the reputation of creative", I only have this to say:<BR/><BR/>It's immature to accuse all of the Creative staff; I've had excellent service from their Plaza Singapura and Marina Square branches.
