Credit Card refusal and Management thoughts

The Star Online > Nation Wednesday June 25, 2008
Drivers fume
GEORGE TOWN: Motorists throughout the country were left fuming and confused on Tuesday, all because of the push by petrol station owners to ensure that their profit margins are maintained.
> 400 petrol stations in the northern region decided to stop accepting payments by credit card by today,
> Motorists are angry that they have to pay by cash, especially when they are now paying more for their fuel,
> Chaos broke out in several towns in Sabah and Sarawak as panicked vehicle owners rushed to petrol stations to fill up after receiving irresponsible SMSes that petrol stations were closing for three days,
> Vehicle owners in the peninsula were also worried after receiving similar untrue SMSes of petrol stations closing.
______________________________________________________________________

I just wanted to give my views on this issue from a 'commercial' management perspective (that means leaving out political/government issues). As far as I am concerned, two parties are at fault here:

1. Petrol Station franchisees (i.e. Dealers) - these people have made more than enough in the past. Now they are getting greedy because if they allow credit transactions, their profits will be less and they will have to eat at Mamak instead of 5-star restaurants. This is total rubbish. My respone to the Dealers? If you cannot manage, SURRENDER your franchise and let someone more capable run the station without removing credit card payment facilities. Otherwise, you are both Greedy and Stupid.

2. Visa/Mastercard - these are the ones causing the financing rates to be high. however, this will need the Banking industry intervention, otherwise the Government will have to step in.

Pick N Brew Secretaries' Day Tea Talk

Yesterday (28th April), Pick N Brew together with OOBEY.com organized a Tea Talk for in conjuction with Secretaries' Day. There we three speakers who shared: Mr Eric Sito, General Manager of Jobstreet, Ms. Evelyn Chue, Senior Consultant from Direct Results Asia Pacific Consultancy and myself.



Eric's and Evelyn's presentations were both wonderful and I enjoyed myself. Eric spoke on the career prospects and career development strategies for Executive Secretaries and Personal Assistants, drwaing upon Jobstreet's databank as well as from his own experience.



Evelyn spoke about understanding people and tailoring communication strategies according to the 16-personality types that Direct Results is famous for, based on the MBTI model. Of course, both speakers were a hit.



I was asked to speak on Time Management. If you want to download or have a look at my presentation slides, you can get them here: http://www.slideshare.net/kennyong/time-management-pick-n-brew-secretaries-day-coffee-talk/, or from the OOBEY.com website.

Big Fish Small Fish and its relation to Career Decisions

I was conducting a class on Career Development the other day and I raised a couple of questions concerning Career Options. The first question was simple, but raised a lot of eyebrows:

"Would you rather be a Big Fish in a Small Pond, or a Small Fish in a Big Pond?"

Let's translate that: For the same salary and benefits, would you rather have a big shot in a small company or a small shot in a big company?

There is of course, no actual answer to that question. However, a person's ability to answer this question will determine his or her ability to build their careers strategically, and not in a haphazard way, like most people do.

I found out that a couple of them had sleepless nights since then, wondering about their own answer to that question. Good for them.

What's your answer?

Classic Example of Dumb Management and Bad Planning - Mid Valley Megamall Shopping Center, KL

There are many cases of dumb management in Malaysia. You know... the kind that are promoted to management while having no logical thinking skills whatsoever. One clear exampl of this is our very own Mid Valley Megamall Shopping Center in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

I only need to state two cases, both having to do with the Car Park planning:
1. Carpark through Entrance G
2. Carpark for Disabled People on Level 3

Just to paint the picture clearer, I went to Mid Valley with my wife and two babies about a month back. This means, two strollers, bags, and other stuff that you have to carry around with babies.

We went in through Carpark entrance G and parked at level 2b. We noticed (after lugging everyone and everything out of the car), that all entrances into the shopping mall involves having either to CLIMB up or down a flight of STAIRS. This is classic dumb management. How can you do that with two babies in two strollers and bags and stuff? Wasn't anyone thinking?

So.. we got back into the car. We noticed that there was 'Disabled Persons' parking on level 3. So we drove up and parked, near the disabled carpark, thinking that the dumb management of Mid Valley would at least build a convenient entrance for disbaled persons. But... we were wrong again.

The main entrance for the Disbaled Persons had STEPS.. instead of a slope. How dumb is that? How in the world could the dumb Mid Valley Management think that disabled persons could go down steps. Why don't they just build a slope?

Again, classic dumb management in Malaysia.

The Malaysian Mind as discovered on "Google's Malaysia Year-End Zeitgeist 2007"

1) Siti Nurhaliza more popular than Paris Hilton for searches of famous personalities
2) Genting and Langkawi top the list for destination searches
3) Strong growth in searches for social networks & video sites

Google has released its Zeitgeist for Malaysia - the most popular and fastest-rising search terms that people have been typing into Google.com.my in 2007.

Zeitgeist means "spirit of the times" – and because people use Google to search for what's new and interesting queries, when seen in volume, tend to be a good reflection of what's on everyone's minds. Amazingly enough as many as 25% of the search queries we get on any given day are new – meaning we have not seen them before.

The Google Zeitgeist is calculated by looking at the aggregation of the most popular and fastest-rising search queries being typed into the Google.com.my search box.

New Year - Employee Rules and Regulations

I just received this from my sister. Quite good.

New Year - Employee Rules and Regulations

Dress Code

It is advised that you come to work dressed according to your salary.

If we see you wearing Prada shoes and carrying a Gucci bag, we assume you are doing well financially and therefore do not need a raise.

If you dress poorly, you need to learn to manage your money better, so that you may buy nicer clothes, and therefore do not need a raise.

If you dress just right, you are right where you need to be and therefore do not need a raise.


************



Sick Days

We will no longer accept a doctor's statement as proof of sickness.

If you are able to go to the doctor, you are able to come to work.


************


Personal Days

Each employee will receive 104 personal days a year. They are called Saturday and Sunday.


************


Toilet Use

Entirely too much time is being spent in the toilet. There is now a strict three-minute time limit in the stalls.

At the end of the three minutes, an alarm will sound, the toilet paper roll will retract, the stall door will open and a picture will be taken.

After your second offence, your picture will be posted on the company bulletin board under the "Chronic Offenders category".

Anyone caught smiling in the picture will be sectioned under the company's mental health policy!

You are allowed to use the rest room only thrice a day and you have to swipe in and out from the toilet doors also.


************


Lunch Break

Skinny people get 30 minutes for lunch as they need to eat more, so that they can look healthy.

Normal size people get 15 minutes for lunch to get a balanced meal to maintain their average figure.

Fat people get 5 minutes for lunch, because that's all the time needed to drink a slim fast.


************


Mails

Don't read junk and forwarded mails.


************


Thank you for your loyalty to our company.

We are here to provide a positive employment experience. Therefore,
