I put something together yesterday morning that was supposed to take twenty minutes. After the sun set, it was almost like it was supposed to be.I don’t read French and the guy on the phone didn’t speak English
Instructions? I don’t need no stinkin instructions!
I guess it would just cost too much to put the directions in the language of the place you’re going to ship the thing TO! I bought a treadmill from Wal-Mart (A Gold’s Gym one which is, as far as I know, NOT an international company) and the instructions were printed in no LESS than six languages! Half the time the instructions are wrong or don’t help anyway!
I write instructions for a living… because of this bike I bought my son some 17 years ago. It had instructions written in English which had been written by someone who didn’t speak English at all and didn’t seem to have a grasp on their other languages (I even tried the Spanish directions for clues). The blow-out picture? for the wrong bike. I winged it and got it functional for Christmas morn, but it took a few hours!!! I now do websites and the “help” thingys. Mine acutally help!

Instructions or not, I have problems constructing things.
