Oh yah…and not being able to sell back books because they’re out-of-date.
(addendum)…also resulting in having to buy a new edition of the same book, which may or may not have new photos and table of contents in it, but it’ll cost more, too.
I worked for two different college-textbook companies, Wallace’s (in KY, in the acct. department, sorting mail & faxes from all over the country, which was HELL), and Follett (in MI, at the same community college from which I got my AS degree, in the shipping and inventory department). Succinctly put, it’s nuts.
