With all of us devastated by the economy this year I can only imagine how many people are going to be utilizing the Internet for the fantastic deals that are always offered on line on Cyber Monday. With tons of people turning to on line shopping for the sole reason of saving cash money, there may possibly be a lot less people storming the retail chains on the day after Thanksgiving known as “Black Friday”.
Sometimes the most obvious solution is right in front of us, yet for some reason we just don’t see it. When we use common sense in life things do tend to be a little bit easier. This subject came up after reading an article on gas prices, where it state that only 10% of Americans work from home. You would think that with the increase in gas prices that that number would have at least doubled by now.Fortunately for those few they are saving a lot of money and time (without the commute). Unfortunately for the rest of us one reason why we still drive into the office is because employers do not trust us. That was the top reason why a lot of companies did not want their employees to work from home. Other reasons revolved around the work that needed to be done. For example, if you work the front desk at a hotel you need to be there in person. I guess the only thing we can do is hope and pray that the economy will improve in the near future.
Today was opening day for baseball. I love baseball, but would prefer to watch this all American sport live rather than on the television. One has to experience all that going to a real game has to offer. The smells, the people, the excitement, it’s all good clean fun.
