Default do you find that small changes to things drive you mad.

We all know that things move on ,advance and change ,but do some of those chances drive you just crazy.
The one change that annoys me is so small that most people will not have noticed it but arnt they sometimes the worst.
Mine is with swan vesta matches, or more so the box .When you used to open the box there were two flaps that ran along both sides of the inner box to keep the matches in.....now some penny pinching smartass has decided to remove the flaps , so that everytime I open the box all the bloody matches FALL OUT.

If I've spent ages researchingh a product, buy it and find it fantastic and then buy another and find its changed without any notification on the packaging.


Drives me mad!

Or when you enter into a 12 month contract with Sky and half way through they tell you that they are upping the monthly repayments by £1 to covers costs etc...I wonder how they would take it if I called up and told them I was going to reduce the monthly repayments cos I want my cake and I quite fancy eating it too.

Or when you buy an Iphone cos everyone tells you they're brilliant and its been the most unreliable phone ive ever had.

Generally, i hate it when they make small changes just for the sake of it when it offers no additional benefit, just so they can say 'new and improved ' on the packaging.
