great to see you back
want to make any comments about rising rates in Japan and if they might have an affect on this whole financial paper boom which was
in my book created by Japan flooding the world with cheap money?
and not quote unquote "productivity" because of the computer..(ps
I know that technology has created incredible breakthroughs and has
made things possible that weren't before..)
all I hear on tv is productivity increases(I often translate that expression of "productivity" into cutting back bloated staff and making each worker work a lot harder..I guess they haven't spent
time waiting to talk to a real person on the phone and going through endless voice menus..(.cuts down staff for the organizations but how much time does it add for the caller trying to talk to a real person? how much time does it take for the recepient to go through all the messages?)
How much time is lopped off when people have down time on their computers? How much time is spent waiting for computer help?
Went to a store the other day and the sales woman had to spend ten
minutes looking through a computer print out to find the price of an
item..Footlocker..Went to Staples another time to buy something,and
had to waste my time and the clerk's time for a half an hour because
their main database wasn't updated to reflect the new price of an
item..etc etc..
I could list so many instances but won't bother..
