Anyone recall Seinfeld's Soup Nazi? That is what we've become!

After reading thread upon thread upon thread from adults seeking advice on how they should approach an AD, it got me to thinking. The behavior (toward AD's) is not unlike Seinfeld's Soup Nazi. We wait in a uniform line, move up only when we are told, act as if they are the one's doing us a favor, order exactly as instructed or get booted out the store, do not ask any questions, and take whatever it is that they give you. Period.

This whole 'Rolex thing' is really gotten out of hand.

"No soup (insert Rolex model of your choice here) for you!"

Yes, this is a joke. Relax, folks. Have an awesome weekend all!

I agree, and I actually watched that this morning. I just wish Elaine could find the Rolex recipe in Rolex’s armoire.

LOL and a Rolex hat included in the sale is the equivalent of free bread?

I think it’s the white tag and warranty card. “Come back, one year for card….Next!!”

Remember…. “The Rolex AD suffered for their franchise. How can they expect anything less from their customers?”

The only difference is the soup Nazi had soup behind the glass.
