United Breaks Guitars!

DISGRUNTLED PASSENGER’S REVENGE
A Canadian musician from Halifax named Dave Carroll recently had difficulty with United Airlines.
Dave spent over 9 months trying to get United to pay for damages caused by baggage handlers to his custom Taylor guitar. During his final exchange with the United Customer Relations Manager, he stated that he was left with no choice other than to create a music video for YouTube exposing their lack of cooperation. The Manager responded: “Good luck with that one, pal.” So he posted a retaliatory video on YouTube. The video has since received over 6 million hits. United Airlines contacted the musician and attempted settlement in exchange for pulling the video. Naturally his response was: “Good luck with that one, pal.” Taylor Guitars sent the musician 2 new custom guitars in appreciation for the product recognition from the video that has led to a sharp increase in orders.

Not My Job

Not My Job

Here is an interesting thought for you. Have you ever sat down and written out what IS your job? What your purpose is, what your objectives are, by what you would like to be remembered?

Here are some of mine as thought starters for you.
To live an ethical, sane, productive, enjoyable and helpful life.
To help those with whom I come into contact to live a happier, healthier, more productive and effective life.
To keep my body in a fit and able condition for as long as I wish to use it.
To set a good example to those in my circle of contacts.

Not by any stretch of the imagination am I perfect at them but I am better than I was and still improving.
