Apparently contour 2L has been spotted at an outlet near our office, which is at least 35-40 minutes from any territory that currently sells contour (ABARTA Coke or Philadelphia Coke). Pretty obvious they didn't get it from us.
Or they'll do that, and then want us to swap out ooc product or swap out core for flavors, and so on. Sometimes I'm glad I'm not an AM or DM.

Welcome to my world, won't you come on in.....
The ones I love are the little crapholes that change ownership every two or three months that do not understand that, yes you did buy everything in the building when you bought the store BUT that cooler is property of pepsi and the previous owner did not have any legal right to inform you that you were purchasing the cooler. You do not own that cooler and you cannot place anything in it if it doesn't get delivered on a pepsi truck. no I do not care if it is pepsi product that you bought from sams, walmart, etc. It did not come off of the pepsi truck therefore it is foreign product.
Then they get all defensive and they are gonna kick me/pepsi/us out of their store because we are not going to tell them how to run their store, ( I always just laugh to myself when I hear this knowing that within 6 months there will be a new schmuck at this store telling me the same thing) I say ok whatever I will call in to have MY cooler picked up. I call in as hostile pickup that way the install/uninstall people will contact management when they are on their way and there will be 10 or so people bumrush the account (sometimes the police are brought in to enforce our picking up our equipment) pull everything out of the cooler and leave with it in about 10 minutes.
