Best. Farewell Note. Ever.

By

From an amazing person whom I have worked with. He embraces politically incorrect in a whole new way, and sets the standard high for all of us.
Greetings all,
I will be coming in today for TRULY my final day, winding up what has been a wonderful, albeit short lived career with some of my favorite people who have touched me (see: {Employee name redacted}) in ways (and places) I never thought I could be touched.
Being that I am bad with names, I would like to express my gratitude toward the Korean guy, the Hispanic girl, the beautiful young old woman, the hunky too-good-looking-to-be-hetero guy (see:{Employee Name Redacted}), the smart guy who I am pretty sure is Jewish, the over achieving 29 year old mom from San Jose, the blond with wet hair, the ladies in sales and the "Gays" and "Nerds" (I don't like to typecast; think of it more as profiling). A special shout out to {Employee Name Redacted}who has my final paycheck, and to {Employee Name Redacted} who will be escorting me from the building.
I feel blessed and honored that I had a chance to work with so many brilliant people during my short stint. {Employee Name Redacted}and {Employee Name Redacted}, thanks for taking a chance on me, {Employee Name Redacted} and {Employee Name Redacted}thanks for believing in me and {Employee Name Redacted}and {Employee Name Redacted} thanks for helping me. I have learned from each and every one of you and I will take this knowledge and confidence with me to my new endeavor. I hope we can all continue to stay in touch (especially if it involves feeding me leads that are coming in).
I thank all of you for your help and support and wish you all continued success and happiness*
I will be in just as soon as the painters leave my house because I know they will steal all of my valuable shit...
Sincerely,{Employee Name Redacted}
 I salute you.

Loyalty Review: Kohl's Yes2You

By
 As some of you know, I've spent over 15 years in the customer loyalty space. So, when I come across a new retail loyalty program, I can't help but see the pluses and minuses. After this many years, it's kind of ingrained. Periodically, I'll share my thoughts with you. Today, it's Kohl's turn under the scope. Let's have a look, shall we? I've divided the review up into three sections: what's good about the program, what's bad about the program, and what I'd change about it. That last one has some actual value: I charged hundreds of dollars per hour for loyalty program consulting, and had over a dozen clients, before I moved to JustAnswer FT. But, being a pandemic and all, I'm giving it away for free here. Kohl's, you're welcome. Here we go! The Good Sign up is opt in Seems odd to praise Kohl's for this, but in department store loyalty, this is a rarity, and a smart one. It means the customers who are opted in are already prime...

Revisiting Star Trek: The Next Generation: Season 1

By
I recently started rewatching Star Trek: The Next Generation from the beginning. I have nothing but fond memories of the original run in the 1980s, given how excited I was for a new Trek series in my lifetime (I had only reruns and the movies to stoke my Trek interest), and it recently occurred to me that, while I diligently consumed every TNG episode, I had not experienced the series since it's original run.  Why did I do this? Well, a few reasons: With the triumphant return of Sir Patrick Stewart to the smaller screen as the venerable Jean Luc Picard , I thought it would be interesting to contrast this version with the previous, and see how far he has come. It would add color to the character, as well as Sir Patrick. Frankly, with the COVID19 lockdown, the series I have binged upon have been intense, dark, and disturbing. Combined with the activity of the world, including insane politics, homicidal police who seem to view people of color as "prey," rather than their ch...

2020 CV19 Lockdown: Winners and Losers

By
It is said that in any time in history, the winners and losers are determined when a unique set of circumstances arises the requires an unprecedented response. How a company responds to those conditions can often propel them to new heights, or sentence them to an ignominious end. This post is meant to be an ongoing and often updated list of those that may come out of the Great 2020 Covid19 Lockdown as champs...or chumps. Winners Zoom How is it that, with all of the video conferencing choices in the market, a relatively obscure one (and a freemium one, to boot!) ran away with the title? Think of it: you had entrenched competitors like Skype and Facebook, as well as work-focused like Microsoft Teams , Google Hangouts , and Amazon Chime , any one of which had far greater reach than Zoom . Yet Zoom won, to the point that they achieved the exalted state of having their product/platform become a verb ("I'll Zoom you later"). More amazingly, they even continued their gro...
