I must say I like the ad below, but is the message at the end well thought? Are they facing challenges because they suck? Or is it because the market situation is bad? Or are they just lousy comparing to competition?
I don't really care that much, while I am in a situation or position to make them face challenges even more
Bite that!
...and think before you post an ad or name a car. Think for example why Nissan Pajero did not make a breakthrough in Spanish speaking markets...
Have a great weekend you all!
PS Something little to ease up your weekend. I might have posted this earlier too, but it is damn too good to be forgotten...

Help Desk / Employee of the Month?
I think this guy should have been promoted, not fired. This is a true story from the
WordPerfect Helpline which was transcribed from a recording monitoring the customer
care department. Needless to say, the Help Desk employee was fired however, he is
currently suing the WordPerfect organization for "Termination without Cause."
This
is the actual dialogue of a former WordPerfect Customer Support employee (now I know
why they record these conversations);
"Rich Hall, computer assistance; may I help you?"
"Yes, well, I'm having trouble with WordPerfect."
"What sort of trouble?"
"Well, I was just typing along, and all of a sudden the words went away."
"Went away?"
"They disappeared."
"Hmmm. So what does your screen look like now?"
"Nothing."
"Nothing?"
"It's a blank; it won' t accept anything when I type."
"Are you still in WordPerfect, or did you get out?"
"How do I tell?"
"Can you see the C: prompt on the screen?"
"What's a sea-prompt?"
"Never mind, can you move your cursor around the screen?"
"There isn't any cursor: I told you, it won't accept anything I type."
"Does your monitor have a power indicator?"
"What's a monitor?"
"It's the thing with the screen on it that looks like a TV. Does it have a little
light that tells you when it's on?"
"I don't know."
"Well, then look on the back of the monitor and find where the power cord goes into
it. Can you see that?"
"Yes, I think so."
"Great. Follow the cord to the plug, and tell me if it's plugged into the wall."
"Yes, it is."
"When you were behind the monitor, did you notice that there were two cables plugged
into the back of it, not just one?"
"No."
"Well, there are. I need you to look back there again and find the other cable."
"Okay, here it is."
"Follow it for me, and tell me if it's plugged securely into the back of your
computer."
"I can't reach."
"Uh huh. Well, can you see if it is?"
"No."
"Even if you maybe put your knee on something and lean way over?"
"Oh, it's not because I don't have the right angle, it's because it's dark."
"Dark?"
"Yes - the office light is off, and the only light I have is coming in from the
window."
"Well, turn on the office light then."
"I can't."
"No? Why not?"
"Because there's a power failure."
"A power.......a power failure?.... Aha, Okay, we've got it licked now. Do you still
have the boxes and manuals and packing stuff your computer came in?"
"Well, yes, I keep them in the closet."
"Good. Go get them, and unplug your system and pack it up just like it was when you
got it. Then take it back to the store you bought it from."
"Really? Is it that bad?"
"Yes, I'm afraid it is."
"Well, all right then, I suppose. What do I tell them?"
"Tell them you're too fucking stupid to own a computer."
