Back in 1981 I worked at a camera store, we sold one of countless Minolta cameras to a customer. 2 days later the customer brought the camera back and claimed it had a bunch of cock roaches in it. While everyone who worked at the store knew there were roaches a plenty in the place (you shoulda seen em scurry when the warehouse lights came on!) we hadn’t seen one in a camera box before or after. Goes to show that even at the dawn of the computer age……the first buggy electronics we saw came from the mind of Minolta…..
Since then, we’ve had the dubious but highly memorable events of finding roaches in and around food at no less than 7 Asian restaurants. Due to this we gave up eating in Seattle’s International district. Ugh.
