Talking about communication Together with a friend I went to Field's in Copenhagen - today is the day it opened *gasp* We were looking for some cool shirts when we saw this shirt made of 22% polyesther and 78% molan..."What is molan" I asked a salesperson, who went off to check with a collegue. He came back with the answer: "It's how it is woven"...! "So...", I said. "It's made from 22% polyesther and 78% weave?". "Yes!", was the answer....and then - after a short break he said: "Eeehm...oh yes....let me go check again". He went off again and left me to look a bit more around. I then found a similar shirt of the same brand made of the same fabric. It said 22% polyesther and 78% viscose. "Aha!" I thought and looked for the salesperson so I could tell him my discovery. I found him and overheard what the one salesperson said to the other: "Just tell him that it is some sort of cotton". I left shortly after that episode - and I doubt I will enter this shop again.
