To protect a bird

thread
To protect a bird We have placed metal nets to prevent birds from coming into the intake pipes of the generators. I do not want to see any birds sucked in.

We asked PSR (Puget Sound Refrigeration) to do this, and they came and did it very next day.

Email broadcasting ... Bad example

thread
Email broadcasting ... Bad exa... I just received an email (campaign broadcast email) using multiple TOs. I have not seen this for a while but I guess there are still some people do this.

What is wrong with this?

(1) I as one of the recipient of this email, I have access to all of the mail address of all other recipients.

(2) This shows that you are not careful about privacy.

(3) Your email server can be listed in backlist as a server that is used to SPAM people.

You should use the service that is design to broadcast email like www.newsmail2u.com. Ask for a demo account if you are not sure.

My camera is back from the repair

thread
My camera is back from the r... I made a scratch on the lens and it was showing on the picture I was taking. I sent it to Canon repair two weeks ago to get it repaired. It came back today and there was no charge.

They found something wrong with lens assembly and replaced the whole assembly including the lens. It was under warranty. I was expecting to pay over $100 for the repair, instead I got it back for free. I do know if there was something wrong with the assembly but it was nice of Canon to send it back to me for free.

I will recommend Canon if you are in the market for a camera.

Why Little Things Really Matter

thread
Why Little Things Really Matter
Let’s say you go into a restaurant and the food is good but the bathroom’s kind of gross. Will you remember the food and forget the bathroom?

The way human memory works you’re going to forget about the croissant and you’re going to remember the bathroom and you’re going to tell 10 friends. The truth of the matter is we remember the little stuff.

Walt Disney at Disney World and Disneyland has focused like the dickens on the parking lots and the parking lot attendants. Because the real hard research says we remember beginnings and we remember ends. It’s not the theme ride at the beginning or the end it’s the kid in the parking lot. And if he’s well trained and if he smiles and he’s polite it makes an incredible difference.

We’ve forgotten how important the little things really are. And in this age of the Internet we go around breathlessly saying, “Everything has changed, nothing is the same as it ever was.” And the little courtesies - the listening, apologizing when you’re wrong, saying thank you, and having clean bathrooms ? and that is the differentiator.

Anybody who doesn’t think that thoughtfulness, kindness makes a huge difference to their customers ? I pity those people!

Buy one get one free !?!?!?

thread
Buy one get one free !?!?!? When you watch infomercial on TV, you see many items being sold with free double offer by just paying separate shipping and handling. I sounded very good, so I check the price online to find out how much the shipping and handling was.

Well, to buy $39.99 knife set, you must pay $21.70 for shipping and handing and if you wish to get second pair FREE, you need to pay $21.70 again. That will make total price of $83.39.

On TV, it is advertised as $39.99 (three payments of $13.99) but the true cost is $52.69 (if you buy one), or $41.69/set if you want two.

Shipping and Handling are they key for hem to make money.
