the best way to counter such economic crisis is to cut staff cost as a whole, not pointing to a particular level. from CEO to office assistants in a proportional rate. Simply downsize your staff force by half means lossing your people power, creating malaise to the entire company. To upkeep the morale within a company, LAYOFF is definitely not a smart step!!
Keep in mind, be conscious with the contributions of your staff to your organization.

it is hobson's choice to take either american based airliners. un-reasonable surcharges, paid beverage, meal, blanket, pillow, in-flight entertainments, etc..etc... a 2k ticket price tag eventually comes up @ 5k
i would presage the results is a negative one, vacational air travellers would be shrug off from ticketing counter.
US Airliners: keep your gung-ho to big spender, 1st class, executive class customers. more airline insolvencies is expected for the rest of 2008, cheer!!!

jpan really needs to establish thrifty hotel in order to secure its tourism competitivity. imagine tourists who spend only averagely 6 hours stay might cost a half of their spendings in the entire trip in jpan, lowering accomodation cost for tourist means tourist can spend more in other areas like: spending with eateries, buying more souvenirs from shops, taking more local attractions. its win-win by all means!!

to make it clear, the chics are not intended to sexual stimulate you. they simply just want to show off their bodies even though some have none.
i would suggest you guys to appreciate by your eyes only, hands off and keep a cool mind.
you would be in real trouble when you go too far or think too much from low cut or mini skirt, haha!!

it is a fact china is granted by IOC as the host of 08 olympics. it is a fact that china is a communist-rule country. no matter what, the game has to take place in chinese soil, why threatening and hijacking olympics as chips to foster democracy in a communist country, turning a consecrate sports event to human rights, liberalize for independency.
simply lets welcome a monumental events with efforts of millions of people on earth, lets enjoy the skills,sportsmanship of atheletes who spent years of hard-working. please stop potching the host, let her free from criticisms as well as threats for a peaceful and harmonious international sports activity.
may peace be with you ALL!!!!!!!!!1

in all aspects, PB is not an international friendship building mission. why?? becos its itinerary never touches islets in conflict with taiwan, china, s. korea. she should go and say hi to their coast guard patrols who stay vigilant dusk to dawn in those waterways!!

web surfing kills time efficiently, counting computer terminals in the tiny yahoo corner in narita and its high occupancies, how can you alleviate the tensions of stranded flyers!!
think of services at extremely reasonable prices: men - hot spring spa, shiatsu women - facial, manicure, spa
these would bring good memories and recalls of such delay in japan!!!!
