Hi,
I don’t remember exactly why I didn’t get all the complimentary books in one shipment.
But the ‘Min Bok 2’-books weren’t in the boxes, (even if they were in the shipment-order).
So they came later, (after I’d informed you about this), in a second shipment.
I remember that I didn’t belive what your college wrote, about that they weren’t finished printed from the factory.
I used to work as a Store Manager in Norway, and thought this seemed unlikely.
I remember I thought they must have been stolen, during the shipment.
But this is many months ago now, so I don’t remember exactly what was written.
But I wasn’t convinced your college was sincere, (about this), I remember.
So that’s why I didn’t write to you at once, about the missing payment.
It has also been Easter now, and I don’t know how many holidays you have in the USA in Easter.
So this is why I didn’t inform you about the missing payment right away.
(But waited untill your second Remittance Adivce).
And I’ve been adviced not to drink the tap-water here in the UK.
So when my food-budget runs out, I don’t drink as much water as usual.
And there are gangs, when I go to Asda, etc.
So it isn’t a good situation, when I end up being a bit starved and dehydrated, due to missing payments, that are scheduled.
This leaves me in a difficult situation, here in the UK, where I’m a foreigner, (since I’m from Norway).
So this problems of yours, haven’t been that fun, here in the UK.
So I hope you find out what has happened.
It’s a bit like one are being beat up, when one are starving due to that the food-budget runs out.
So what you did now was a bit like corporal punishment, to me.
No matter what you meant it to be, in the USA.
That’s how it was to me.
So this was like something serious, I think.

Hi,
well, I had budgetted with those money.
So now I’ve only had rice and vegetable soup, for days.
(My emergency-food).
I also thought your colleges explanation about why I didn’t get a box of
books, (that she sent for good-will).
She said it was because the factory hadn’t produced it.
But why was it on the invoice then?
It must have been stolen from the cargo-company then, I think.
If the factory hadn’t produced it, it should have been on the
shipment-order then.
And why haven’t you explained about this error earlier?
I’ve been working for most of my life, and it has never happened to me
before, that a regular salary-payment hasn’t been sent correct, to my
bank-account.
This is very poor, and shows that you don’t have respect, for your
employees, (or writers), I think.
My half-brother Axel Thomassen’s steph-mother, Metter Holter, once told me,
when I rented a room from her and my half-brothers father, Arne Thomassen,
in the early 90’s, that one shouldn’t let ‘them’ mess with ones money.
I think you have messed with my money now.
She would wind me up, when my holiday-money was delayed, from the
hyper-marked, (OBS Triaden), where I worked then, (in a gap-year from my
studies).
That must have been something she learned in America where she lived with
the Ancona-mafia-family, (for some reason, I remember she told me).
Is your company run by nerds?
How can you do mistakes like this?
And all the time.
Do I have to delete all my books from Amazon and try to publish them on
Lulu, or something?
This was very poor, I think.
It seems like Amazon are very unprofessionaly run.
You don’t seem to be business-people to me, if I’m allowed to be frank.
Real business-people wouldn’t lie and do mistakes with peoples money.
Peoples money should be treated like something very important, I think.
If I can’t budget on the money from you.
Then I can’t take Amazon seriously, I think.
Are you really criminals, or something, I’m wondering then.
I have the Order of St. John in my line, in Norway.
Was this a plot from them or some underworld, I wonder now.
This was very poor.
