Mass-market stuff is a different thing altogether.
I highly doubt that a Rolls-Royce employee is concerned about what some is wearing that brought their car. What they are concern with is the money that they paided.


Only time I have ever heard of Rolls-Royce being upset with a previous customer is when a man in the U.S. brought a Rolls-Royce and turned it in to a cab (THE ULTIMATE INSULT). From what I hear Rolls-Royce brought the car back from the guy because they didn't want him riding around with a Rolls-Royce cab.

That punk in dirty clothes money paid your salary, be thankful; that's what I say.

I don't respect people for things they do unless it's extraordinary. The craftsman is doing his F__king job, like the rest of the people in the world.

The people I respect are the little kids working 18 hours a day to make shoes and clothes for the rich just to earn a few cents a day, not some guy who sits in an air-conditioned factory, works 8 hour days, makes 50K (or more) a year.
