The British are supposed to be famous in laughing at themselves, but even their sense of humor has a limit. When Ratner took over his father’s shops in 1984, he introduced a very clearly company policy, which was great success. By 1991, Ratner’s company had owned 2,400 shops. And later that year, Gerald Ratner made a big mistake. At a big business meeting, he explained the secret of his success — people asked, “How can you sell your goods at such a low price?” He said, “Because of they are absolute rubbish.” His audience burst out laugh. But the British newspapers and the British public were not so amusing. People felt angry and stayed away from Ratner’s shops. Six months after his speech, sales fall sharply. The following year, things got bad and Gerald Ratner was forced to resign. By the end of 1992, he had lost his company and 25,000 of his employee had lost their jobs.
