Re: [FWDLK] Honda AD?????



Well let's agree to disagree. The content in the link was out of place for Forward Look website. As far as where you got it, you're still using it out of context. If I saw it on a gay themed website, probably I'd enjoy it, but I was stunned to see it on the Forward Look. Not funny, wrong, wrong. You have a different point of view. Okay, I guess we move on. I guess I did miss your intended point as the point I got was offensive. Onward. I'll try to skip your posts in future.

Good Day Henry,

And I quote...

"...and a fair warning...anyone who is offended by stuff shouldn't click the link. I'm saying this now because I don't expect to hear anyone complaining it is inappropriate because they clicked the link and were offended even when I said they shouldn't."

I think you're reading way too much into things and/or missing the point. For what it's worth, I found the graphic on an import website a long time ago, meaning even they can appreciate the humor in poking a little fun at themselves.

Cheers.

Garrett, what is your point???? Warning or not, that attachment should not be included on the Forward Look site. Yes, it's a Honda so that fits, but the text? Are you saying/implying that those who don't share your ideas on the fate of Chrysler aren't heterosexual???????? What does that have to do with a Forward Look discussion? Perhaps I missed something in the back and forth on the subject, but my take is that you are waaaaaaaaaay out of line.

I hope there is a webmaster similar to the IML(Imperial site). If so, you should be taken off the site permanently. I am offended, deeply so by your attachment.

Man...I didn't expect a lecture and a quiz, but if that means you'll send me an MBA, I'll get right to work analyzing and answering those e-mails.

I think your questions, however, are more related to economics, and less related to "operations management," which was my area of specialization (not that the facetiousness of your questions makes them hard to answer). If you could focus more on production methods/techniques, including lean production (which, yes, could be traced back to the US), and other ways companies are able to gain or sustain a competitive advantage, I might be able to better listen and pay attention. In other words, our major areas of interest were more so how to avoid being the ones caught with our pants down.

Unfortunately, philiosophy and what we thought was "fair" were not subjects I studied either.

Anyway, I think you need this, Neil...and a fair warning...anyone who is offended by stuff shouldn't click the link. I'm saying this now because I don't expect to hear anyone complaining it is inappropriate because they clicked the link and were offended even when I said they shouldn't.

Well, let's discuss THIS business model, in your MBA progam, Garrett:

How many millions of people reside in Japan?

How many MULTI-millions reside HERE? (answer: about 300 million)

Which country has GIVEN-away technological innovations , in the 50's &
60's, and which has exploited those advantages?

Which country has protective import restrictions, and which country
protects its
monetary valuations, to make its exports cheap?

Which country has economicaly  invaded the other one, taking advantage
of receving State
provided tax-breaks, in competition with other
represeed-revenue/employment states, to manufacture cars/trucks at a
lower unit-cost than its 'domestic' (don't want to give-away the
answers, here, Garrett; this is a TOUGH Business School course, here)
competition, which is entrenched in a high-business cost environment.

Which country has dominated the other's ADVERTISING, in EVERY-possible
venue, so as to establish a "domestic" entity/existence?

You'll have to pardon me, here, folks, this is ONLY 'off' the top of my
head; no deep business-school model- research  being done
here.

And, yes, I DID major in Bus Admin, @ Miami U. , in Oxford, OH (class of
'72).
