Today I took Adweek's survey for the Hot List of Top Digital Brands, Games and Gadgets. I was surprised to see that I was unfamiliar with many of the products mentioned in the survey. What does this have to say about me as a person of the technology generation?

First of all I want to start off this blog by saying thank you to the many companies that are closed this Thanksgiving and allowing their employees to spend a paid Christmas with their families. You have given more of a gift than you could know. Thank you for saving us from this holiday nightmare. I hope this spreads and buts an end to this madness. For the sake of the workers. Society Lost in ConsumerismI think this is a great step in the right direction for American society. Too often we are lost in the world of consumerism by putting merchandise at the top of our priority lists. We let the things we own define us as a person when they really do not. Thanksgiving is missed by many hardworking parents every year because their companies care more about making money than they do about their employees. That is the bottom line. They don't care that their empolyees don't get to spend anytime with their families during the holidays. People will be fired from their jobs if they refuse to work on those day, particularly in the retail buisness. CEO of these companies need to take a look at these facts. They are not the ones loosing out on family time. They are probably travling and vacationing with their families during this time while their in-store retail employees are working their butts off every year, missing the fun and joyious memories of the holidays. Hard working families, single mothers, single fathers should all be rewarded on these days with paid vacation. At least, a day off. I will definitely be joining this campaign and sharing this idea with friends! Black Friday : Retail Hell, |
