Letter of complaint to Shhh

Dear Sirs,

I was recently enticed to buy your ear plugs due to their attractive packaging and neat logo. I was shocked and appalled, however, to find that they do not do the job described. I was staying in the Apollo Guest House in Mumbai (perhaps you've heard of it?), with a room facing the street. Only then did I discover that your earplugs expand to their original shape as soon as they are squeezed. Also, if one manages to insert a plug even a small bit into the ear, the shape of the plug soon ensures they are pushed out.

I was due on set at 8am in the morning, and due to your defective product was tired and grumpy throughout the day. If you ever see the movie Lucky Charm, I will be the sleepy, cross looking person in the front row in the courtroom scene.

Needless to say, I will be informing my friends and aquaintances not to buy your product in the future.

Yours Sincerely,

Alexander Pos.

So they're not the foam ones, where you first squeeze them into a thin shape, then insert, then have to hold them in your ear till they expand and stay in their position?

Do the manufacturers read your blog?

Well Matt they're meant to do that, but they're impossible to squeeze to a thin shape. I have sent letters to all concerned.
