Retail
Shop Advertising and the Curse of Moronic Vandalism.
Shops and
businesses in the high street benefit from outside advertising to attract
passing trade. The problem is that such advertising material can be a
magnet for destruction by the more undesirable members of society.
The Summer of 2011 in the UK saw a proliferation of various race and
criminal riots that disgraced the English nation. This lead to wanton
destruction of many shops and retail premises, and a huge cost to local
businesses - some never recovered. This highlighted how vulnerable High
Street premises can be from the more 'lowlife' underclass elements of society.
This article examines the issue, and provides positive information on how to
eradicate the risk of destruction through the curse of moronic vandalism.

How the European Union Kills
Business in the United Kingdom. The
EU is an organisation that emanated
from the aftermath of the Second
World War. Its initial intention was honourable, to avoid a repeat.
However, it has grown into a undemocratic bureaucratic monster. It
shares the features of all out of control bureaucracies, where its sole purpose
appears to be for continual expansion and power. The United Kingdom (UK)
is largely a euro-sceptic country, and thankfully is not in the Euro zone, which
currently appears in the process of imploding to euro currency destruction.
It is in the area of business this essay focuses on; the EU and its myriad of
regulations has long lost sight that it doesn't create business, but puts ever
increasing obstacles in the way of companies to create wealth. |

Equality Act UK 2010 – More Politically Correct Nonsense Imposed on Business
The United Kingdom's Equality Act 2010
was imposed on companies against the wishes of business leaders, whilst the UK is trying to reduce its enormous debts. This
article explores how this legislation adds yet more red tape to businesses, and
will end up adversely affecting the selected ‘protected groups’ it was suppose
to protect. Taking
offense if you're individual benefitting from a protected characteristic
such as race, religion, or gender (i.e. female) can translate to a huge
compensation claim . This legislation aims to encourage an
equality of outcome (rather than opportunity), but human beings are not clones, and individual personal
choice certainly does not appear to fit into politically corrected ideology. |
The Sheer Hell of Telephone Call
Centre Voicemail
Telephone Call
Centres and their horrendous voicemail systems can often provide the ultimate in
bad customer service experience. Just about
everyone has experienced the sheer hell of telephoning a call centre. The
endless voicemail mantra of ‘your custom is important to us’, the torturous
piped music, the waste of time, and to rub salt in the wound invariably having
to pay money for this nightmare. For many companies and organisations their
voicemail is nothing short of a public relations disaster, and some of the worst
examples can be found in the telecommunications business and government
organisations. This article
examines the current call centre vogue and questions why it is used in the first
place. |
HEALTH & SAFETY - Is
Perspex Plastic Really a Better Choice than Glass?
The United
Kingdom currently
appears risk averse and obsessed with Health and Safety issues. Indeed this can
be taken to extremes, and has led to over zealous interpretation with the
banning of such innocuous items and activities such as hanging baskets,
pantomime shows throwing sweets to children, conker competitions. When it comes
to purchasing picture frames, many organisations particularly those linked with
government demand the more expensive and environmentally unfriendly plastic
safety glass over traditional glass. This article examines whether plastic
glass really is a safer option than traditional glass. |
Is The UK's TV
LIcensing Agency Just Plain Evil? Some
organisations are inefficient, some are over
bureaucratic, but in the United
Kingdom the TV Licensing is concluded to be just plain evil. This agency assumes every address is using a television and if their
records shows there is no TV harasses potentially innocent persons to the point
of using language that treats them as criminals without checking their facts
first. The UK is rather unique in having a compulsory television license . This is to fund the British
Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) whether watched or not. The TV
Licensing Agency is tasked to collect the fee, but as Datalite UK Ltd
discovered they assume every business has a TV, and treats does
that don't as criminals! |
