Do Black Friday or Cyber Monday really matter?

Look in a search engine and chances are you'll find a great deal any time of year, not just Black Friday (which seems to last fo for weeks) or Cyber Monday.

In any event, I share my links that go to Amazon via my affiliate link so perhaps you will click thru and help me make 50 cents or so.

I do like the Small Business Saturday concept, go support a few small shop keepers this weekend. You can come back and shop using my links on Monday 😁

Shopper Violence on Black Friday.

Do you really need to fight for a toy in the mall? Since 2006, there have been 7 reported deaths and 98 injuries in the USA. How stupid are we? Trampling people to buy your XBOX or iPad? Take a reality check, go on a walk in a state park, go to the Monet exhibit or just chill out at a local book shop. Don't get hurt or killed over some crap.

Oh and happy holidays, it's the season to be merry.

Make an offer, you may get a great new employee

The job hunt is stressful enough without all the double meaning messages.

How crazy would it be to interview and be told something like, "dude you're way too old for my office, or "are you nuts? I can't afford that salary!"

I would love to hear some honest feedback, then we have something to work with. It might even lead to a job offer.

Am I really too qualified, or just look strange in this suit? This is an awkward interview, who isn't uncomfortable, even a little bit? Indirectly I heard feedback from one young Director of Product said he thought with my background I'd take his job. I am a big believer that helping my team and manager succeed is good for my whole team. Trust me, I don't want your job-I want to help you succeed.

Panel interviews are fine, saves you time and the panel is more comfortable. So a few times this has happened, I'm being interviewed by someone who isn't speaking clearly, I think maybe that's the test-how do I address a communication issue? If I can't understand what you are saying, I'm going to ask you to repeat it again.

The money? Am I asking too much? Easy, make an offer. We have all sorts of options here. Lets talk!

Will Work For Cash

I have a not so new idea to help you feel great about yourself. Maybe for for a moment. Maybe longer.

Are you loaded with cash guilt? Thinking about others struggling while that C-Level gig is paying you more than you could ever spend? Just got a huge bonus or raise?

Still with me? Great!

I have a couple of ways to relieve you of that cash guilt. And this may even help both of us out.

Share some money with me! I've made it easy with these online tools.

I set up links to GoFundMe and PayPal. And for every $100,000 you gift to me, I'll treat you to lunch!

A WIN-WIN DEAL!

I know a few hundred thousand dollars would make me feel better, and it could help you too.

FRIENDS HELPING FRIENDS. TWEET, TWEET.

Please invite big bucks friends from Social Media. The CEO of Google, Facebook, Tesla, Amazon. You know that gang. Bill and Melinda Gates? Major supporters of public broadcasting?

Thanks for reading, and thanks even more for inviting a couple of generous, wealthy friends to help out too. If you can't spare $100,000, your sharing on social media is free.

SEND SOME CASH

Send via PayPay

Send via GoFundMe
