Amazon's Ring of Power is coming out. I had high hopes and then I watched the trailer and I don't really have high hopes any more. I hope it's good though but.....
Found this amazing youtube comment though:
It began with the forging of the great films. Threads were given by Tolkien, immortal, wisest and fairest of all beings. Rights were granted to Jackson, great miner and craftsman of the mountain of lore. And nine, nine hours were gifted to the race of men, who above all else, desire quality. But they were all of them deceived, for another show was made. In the Land of Amazon, in the fires of Mount Prime, the Dark Lord Bezos forged in secret a massive flop. And into this show he poured his money, his greed and his will to dominate all film. One film to ruin them all, one film to bind them, in the Land of Amazon where the shadows lie.

My mom is the secretary you meet coming into the high school and she's like a teacher got threatened and a fight already. Only the 4th day of school. The town I grew up in the is far from the city too (town of 35000). Well, far for Rhode Island. Which is not far compared to other states.

Went down Disney Store memory lane today with a new, younger coworker that worked retail not all that long ago.
We started talkin’ about the notorious, hourly KPI’s (Key Performance Indicators) from retail. Could be especially annoying during your management shift (or, quite wonderful, depending on the day
). Carolyn dealt with them too, when she was a Payless Shoes manager.
Every hour we printed out a report from the closest register to record on a paper chart on a clipboard.
There were 5, IIRC…
I can remember 4…
Average dollars per sale, items per sale, dollar amount per hour (as managers we had hourly sales goals, assigned to us from corporate, based on LY), and conversion.
Dollar amount per hour could be totally blown by large returns, and even returns that were purchased at another Disney Store, or online, could be returned to our Disney Store, and counted against our store.
Conversion (how many Guests that breached the entrance that actually bought something) was one that could really get annoying. 7 people could walk 5 ft. into the Store for 20 secs. just to get outta’ the mall traffic, then leave. Statistically, that then turned into 7 Guests that you didn’t, as the manager, “convert” to purchase anything.
Fun times…!!!!!
