How to run a business

I have always found it important to allow staff the opportunity to participate in certain decision making at work, especially when those decisions directly affects their lives or work place. Such participation promotes a happier work environment, creates work satisfaction and builds company loyalty. The town of Litchfield just created a mosquito control district where two gentleman were appointed head of this unique committee. Take a look at their last meeting and how they involved others from the district in the decisions being made while heeding any concerns or issues. I think their leadership style should be taught in all business schools. You have to watch this video.

Venezuela

Venezuela is in a terrible economic crisis. Oil makes up over 90% of the countries revenue and together with the collapse of oil prices came the collapse of the economy. There have been weeks of rioting and looting, but the president, Nicolas Maduro, seems to have everything finally under control. He has come up with a few ideas that he believes will turn things around. He has addressed the people with his ideas and has told them:
-To address the electricity shortage, "Women should stop blow drying their hair, I think women look better when their hair is dried naturally".
-To address the unemployment crisis, "An idle factory will be turned over to the people, we will do it, "F_CK it , the time has come".
-To address food shortages, "Children are always hungry and eat too much so have fewer children".
-To address lack of medications, "Try not to get sick".
 Maduro has recently been called "mad as a goat", I can't imagine why.
                                          Maduro, it must be nice to have a banana!

Dire situation

There are many dire situations in the world. But none so dire as the decline of clowns in the world. Yes clowns. I just read that the world is poised to suffer an unprecedented shortage of professional clowns. Is being a clown even a profession? The World Clown Association has declined by nearly 30 percent in the last 10 years, I was not aware that there was a World Clown Association. Admissions to clown colleges continue to decline, completely unaware that clown colleges even existed. I looked up what is taught at Clown College and it said " basic clowning", I was not even aware that there were different levels of clowning.
 What does all this mean? I think it means that it is time clowns realize that we don't like them. No one likes clowns. There is even a phobia called coulrophobia, fear of clowns. Interesting that in North Korea 100 percent of the population are afraid of clowns. Amazing since their leader is a total clown.
I say goodbye and good riddance to Bozzo and Chuckles, it is time to send out the clowns!

New business opportunity

I am always looking for new business opportunities. There was a time when I sold adult diapers. Sales were good, margins acceptable and the market always growing. I continue to keep my eyes open for the right opportunity.
I just read that Kenya recently paved some of their roads and immediately passed a new law to protect these roads. They have ordered all cart pulling donkeys to wear diapers. What a great opportunity to move to a wonderful country and to open a new business and it is a natural. Where else to put a diaper if not on a big ass!

Vasile Copei

In a Romanian town residents have a choice of three candidates for mayor in an election this weekend. The residents can either vote for Vasile Cepoi or Vasile Cepoi or Vasile Cepoi. The current mayor of Draguseni, Vasile Cepoi is running for a fourth term and both of his challengers are also named Vasile Cepoi. Town hall official, Viorel Munteanu, said Friday that the three contenders are not related. Anyone want to wager who is going to win? I would love to see that ballot. Below is a picture of Vasile, Vasile and their other brother Vasile.
