Starting Back Up On The Road Again!!



Whether or not you agree with the reopening of the economies in your state or country, it seems to be a coming reality.  Ultimately that means that at some point now or in the future, you will probably begin to be back on the road again.  Zoom'ing may exist but those who have worked in most businesses, know that being able to look your client in the eye is still the best way to do business.

So, in preparation of being back on the road, the following article appeared in the Wall Street Journal on cleaning your hotel room.  Now most of us would think that the hotel would do that; some will do a great job, some will do an average job and some will do a sub-par job.  We all at one time or another have been in a 4 or 5 star hotel and still found a situation of less than the cleanliness we expected.

So to provide you with some thoughts on this subject, I thought this article was timely.

You must be the judge of what to do or not.  It seems from some of the stories of the suffering people have been going through during the Covid crisis, I personally would prefer to be on the safe side and follow this advice as well as may safety on an airplane, train or bus.  Be Safe, be healthy and be sane.

LISTENING....

We all need to do a better job of listening.  Whether it is a political matter, a business matter, a personal matter or something in the news, we all need to do a better job with this important topic. The recent issue of listening certainly came into being with the CEO of the Crossfit brand.  He spoke with numerous people in this business and apparently did not hear, did not listen or did not want to hear what they were saying.  I wasn't there so I don't implicitly know.  But since then he has resigned as the CEO.  Why?  Basically all because he was not listening. My sister and I are basically polar opposites when it comes to politics, but over the last few years we have both tried much harder to listen to the other's thought and ideas on many topics.  Some we will never agree upon, but some, interestingly enough we found that we could agree on with each other.  All it took was some listening. I was recently going through my archive of articles that I thought were i

JUST WHAT EXACTLY IS A SUPPLY CHAIN AND HOW DOES A LOUSY VIRUS SCREW THEM UP SO INCREDIBLY WELL!

Recently, I have had quite a few people ask me in the course of small talk, what exactly is this "supply chain" talk they are hearing about again regarding th e Delta variant of the Covid-19 virus.    They've heard the horror stories on     toilet paper or disinfectants in many stores.  Now we've heard of hoarders over-stocking their own homes or selling these products on the street corner at inflated prices.  Many people ask how can this be; what causes this; we are in the 21st century; etc. I remember the start of this current problem back in the 1960s (perhaps earlier) with the start of such programs as MRP (Materials Requirement Planning), but certainly not limited to this program and parlaying further into programs and schemes like J-I-T (Just-In-Time).  Bottom line and perhaps over-simplified, these programs were and are intended to speed up production and cut costs.  There are newer and greater programs like Lean, etc.   But for the average person to understand
