Hello, Janeville? I hate you…
August 18th, 2006
And when I say, “I hate you,” what I mean is, “I love your clothes. I think. But since you won’t take that little step to put your stuff online, and the nearest store is like 6 hours away, I guess I’ll never know, now will I?!” Sneer.
Instead, they taunt me by sending me occasional Janeville e-mails. There is always something I want pictured in these. Always. And yet too damned bad for me.
I don’t understand it. Gymboree owns them, so it’s not like they’re unfamiliar with the workings of an online store. And I would think with that experience, it would be more economical to put up a web site, than to keep building bricks-and-mortar stores. What’s the deal? Someone explain the reasoning to me.
Sure, I could just unsubscribe from the e-mails and save myself a lot of anxiety. But I still have that glimmer of hope that one day I’ll get a message that, lo and behold, I’ll actually be able to order something.
Plus I just like to bitch about random things.
