Quality Control ......now we're talking.

[El Presidente]

Young Adam thought that the 15 CORO Tubos Carton pack outer felt a bit light. 

....quick check and it was missing a few cigars

.....like 15 of them 

.....Somehow the factory forgot to put the cigars inside. Sealed and sent. 

Tubes and Cardboard are excellent however. 

Can you imagine if we sent these out. The member would think that we were idiots if not fraudsters. If a new member we would think that they were having a lend of us. Distrust on both sides. 

This is the bullshit that goes on. 

[Fuzz AI]

Must have been that packer's first day on the job.

"What? You mean I also have to put cigars in the tubes, before they go in the cardboard box?!"

when i used to bitch about being short-numbered in a box, you would always simply say "tax". and that was tghe end of that.

it does remind me of doing a brief stint in a law firm at nerang - a favour that could never be repaid - and the secretary (who really should have been a model as she was not einstein) would always whinge about taking a copy of every correspondence (pre email etc). she never understood why. i would tell her it was for our file. she still could not see why. after a few days, i finally found out why she thought it was odd. she had put every piece of correspondence, every letter, in the file. not one had been sent. she was the same secretary who, (when i was doing this, i had just moved and was sending out changes of address notices) instead of sending a letter to the dodgy penny dreadful i had some shares in, actually sent them a letter telling them that the australian stock exchange had changed its address to PO Box xxx at nerang.

What was the stock (generally or specifically) and what became of it?  Just curious 

[SCgarman]

Jeez, I thought you were going to show something good for a change. Boy was I wrong! LOL

[Jimmy_jack]

Well thats it. Im done with Cuban Cigars. Bwahahaha....not really. Just kidding. 

[cigaraholic]

Just when I thought they couldn't take under filling to a new level...

[PamunkeyHub]

LOL... Cohiba "air" 

[JohnS]

@El Presidente, time to check in your good doctor mate to monitor current blood pressure, perhaps? Just sayin'! (Cause it must take its toll relying on such incompetence for your livelihood?)

years ago. no idea. i used to play around in the market a lot more then than today. used to fiddle about with penny dreadfuls for fun. some worked but of course most did not.

I know that's awful, but from a certain perspective that's amazing too.

Only in Cuba could you do that and not lose your job.

[SirVantes]

There's your "opening a Cohiba Atmosphere", Prez! It's a sign 

[gweilgi]

Hey, you ordered "tubos", and you got "tubos"!

Does it say anywhere on the order "tubos que contengan cigarros"?

 

 

 

[SirVantes]

Cohiba Desaparecidos

[LordAnubis]

But.... did the tube have sheen?

[OZCUBAN]

At least for us Aussies there will be less TAX?

Super classic underfilling 

[Leopolis Semper Fidelis]

That's control de calidad, present-day Cuban style.  ¡Viva la revolución!

That was my thought as well.  This wasn't your usual disinterested cigar factory employee, rather someone feeding their family for a week or two.

Would think so, too. This is not a case of "forgotten", it's a case of been "stolen". Otherwise, the cedar-wrap would be missing as well.

Wow. 375.00 worth. No small issue here. A friend of mine is a Cuban national and has family in the business. The factories have a rep for lots of stuff leaving out the back door

I suspect many of them resurface as seconds on the secondary market.
