Undercover Brother err Boss …
After the Super Bowl, CBS aired the first episode of Undercover Boss. The concept seemed interesting and with the whole down turn of the economy I figured this might be some good PR for the companies that become involved in the show. At first I thought this could be an entertaining trainwreck that all reality TV becomes. I finally watched the first episode which was based upon Waste Management. We’ve all seen their trucks and possibly their ads. Could be interesting and actually it was but not in a trainwreck manner. For a self describe antagonist and spiritually gifted with negativity it was a good dose of seeing the better side of man. For a company that deals with waste (trash, recycling, cleaning porta potty’s, etc) they showed how several employees had a very upbeat attitude and work ethnic. Granted several of them had gone through life changing medical experiences that show their thankfulness to still be living. But still, it just showed how dedicated and hard working these people were. I applaud them and makes me feel blessed with my own health and job situation. I should strive to be happier and more upbeat at work. Well maybe.

- Google says the U.S. needs faster internet connections. Now they’re going to start their own broadband experiment!!! Google is AWESOME! When the industry says competition spurs innovation which should decrease cost THIS is what they mean. Not Comcast eating up smaller companies and pushing their not-so Comcastic service.
