I don't get how these CEO's can get bonuses for failure?

In South Africa, best you can expect is 6-10 business days delivery... When I order from Honk Kong, I can expect delivery in 8-12 business days, pay less for shipping, and hellavo lot less for the product. Now how does that make sense?
Makes me feel grateful for being in the UK, where next day delivery is available from most online stores - I've become so used to it that I take it for granted.

It really seems that electronics stores are quickly becoming a thing of the past. They don't sell anything that's really necessary to have "right now", so people are willing to pay cheaper places online and wait for items to ship. They can't compete with the customizability of computers ordered online (whether pre-built or custom built). Most music sales have moved to the internet (I still prefer CDs though, but people like me are becoming a minority), along with a good portion of videos.
In the UK we only really have one decent electronics store on the high street - Maplin[^]. Like you say most of the time it is much better to buy stuff online - the only time I will use Maplin is when I want to get hold of something like a hard drive within two hours.

Version 3.0 now available.Simple, they get a blanket bonus clause written into their contract before they even start. But I'm just as mind boggled as you as to why any corporation would do it.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind
