Was driving home yesterday, stopped at a robot and watched this panel van draw up next to me. No names mentioned, but it was one of these repair companies, and according to its branding it was an 'official' repairer for a number of big electronics companies. Strapped to the back of the van by rope and covered with a thin, dirty blanket, was someone's television. Which got me thinking: what sort of future do a lot of these smaller repair companies really have anymore? There is no way they can operate the way a lot of them do, with this, "Chuck it in the back and strap it down" attitude, because they're going to end up doing more damage than anything else, and people will ultimately refuse to have anything to do with them. It seems that the people doing the collecting have either not been trained on how to handle certain goods, or they just don't care?
