Desculpas e mais desculpas, sempre em negação

Quanto mais vou mergulhando mais me convenço que as críticas que se fazem aos empresários portugueses não se devem ao facto deles serem portugueses numa cultura católica mas de serem humanos:

"Retailers are suffering from all the ills complained about by David Jones, but complaining isn’t doing them any good, isn’t helping them adapt to changed circumstances and competition, changing consumer desires and habits, changing retail channels and choices. Some observers have fingered the bigger picture as the retail industry having to come to terms with Australia restructuring in the same way that car makers/dairy farmers/wagon wheel manufacturers have had to deal with the restructuring of their industries.
.
(Moi ici: Agora reparem no que aí vem. É divinal!!! Estão a imaginar os políticos e os académicos a explicar que temos de baixar os custos para sermos mais competitivos? Pois bem ...) David Jones’ only response seems to have been to discount. “Let’s have a sale!” Wow, that’s innovation for you in established Australian retailing."
.
"The customers know and happily tell anyone who wants to listen what’s wrong with many stores – overpriced, underserviced, (Moi ici: Nota-se tão bem a redução de funcionários de loja relativamente ao ano passado e, sobretudo, o serem cada vez mais novos e com menos formaçãounexciting and just plain boring."(Moi ici: Lembrei-me logo da Papelaria Fernandes)
...
"Denial is the first step to failure – and there’s plenty of that among the counterjumpers"
...
"The real threat to Australia’s tired and boring retailers from the internet is the information it provides. Comparison shopping is a given on just about everything."

BTW mais uma ida à Tavar's para ser bem atendido e bem servido.
