Pet Peeve's

Today I just wanted to talk about my 2 biggest pet peeves. These are things I see all the time these days and every time I do, it just annoys the heck out of me.

My first and probably biggest pet peeve is being directly lied to, especially by a reputable corporation. When things are promised to you by a certain date on the calendar, that day should NOT go by and have nothing happen.

This has happened many times. We get promised things by a certain date, that date comes and goes, and the item promised is never received. If you can't promise something by a certain day, just tell me the TRUTH. I respect someone a hundred times more if they just come to me and say "You know what? We are not sure when we can get that to you but we are working hard on getting it there soon." Why can't they just say that?

One other issue that goes hand-in-hand with this one is being "left in the dark." This is when there is a complete lack of communication about something important. At work, I have seen plans change repeatedly without anyone saying what the deal is. Some explanation can do wonders for morale.

My second pet peeve is when someone seriously thinks they are better than you and they flaunt it publicly. I just don't like this kind of attitude because it brings down the mood of people. There is no need to flaunt your strengths making everyone else look weak. There is nothing to gain from this and in many cases it actually is not true. Vanity is the devil's favorite sin. Help your colleagues be better at what they do rather than show them how much they suck at it and everyone wins.

Perfect World

No, I'm not talking about our real world. You all know it is FAR from perfect. I am actually talking about an MMORPG. What is unique about this one is it is a free to play or F2P Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (this is what MMORPG stands for by the way :P).

This game has great graphics. They really spent a while in making the game look visually appealing to players. This is important in a free game because you need a hook to make them look further. People have low expectations for free online games, so this helps in a big way. There is a definite Asian theme to the graphics and music, however the music is more modern and upbeat, but definitely Asian.

There are 4 different races to choose from and each one has 2 classes to play as. This results in 8 different classes or jobs to play the game as. From Mages, to Barbarians, to Rogues, all the classic types are here and each one has it's own strengths and weaknesses. Each class can also solo very well for the most part, but ones without healing magic may need to rest every few fights.

I have built myself up to level 18 and I am still very new to the game, but from what I have seen so far, this is a great choice if you want to play something but you don't have the money to play one of the more mainstream games like World of Warcraft, or Final Fantasy XI etc. There are many quests which really help you level and they break up the grind a bit as well.

Check out this game if you are looking for something new. You have nothing to lose.

Managers in Retail

I just had to share this. The other day at the grocery store, I was in one of the aisles looking at something when over the loudspeaker I heard, in a very loud voice, a manager ordering one of his associates to the very aisle I was in. I looked over a few feet and there was the associate standing there right in the middle of the aisle he was just ordered to report to.

He just looked at me, shrugged and remarked "I hate my boss".

This is not out of the ordinary in retail. I completely sympathized with him. Sometimes when you are in a store and you hear an order barked over the intercom, there is a good chance the person being ordered around is already working on that. Sometimes managers just don't check before they manage.

This has happened to me before as well. I was working in the paint department helping a customer by mixing some paint. I had just left the desk to get the can I needed from the aisle, when over the intercom I hear "customer needs assistance at the paint desk, customer is waiting for assistance at the paint desk". I look back and the person I was helping is the only one there, and they kind of shrank away wondering what that was all about. The manager who paged it was just exiting the door as well, so he didn't even wait to see what happened.

I know it's just them doing their job trying to be sure they cover their butt, however, they can have their own mind sometimes. It can do wonders.

Our bodies have everything we need

Lately I am seeing a trend with new health drinks, or health supplements. There is a shift starting to happen where we are not being told to take in fruit's or other things to give our bodies a great antioxidant. It is turning out that the things our body can benefit the most from are already within us. They are just not active.

One example of this is the Resveratrol that is in the Black Grape drink I mentioned in my last blog. The Resveratrol is only in the drink because it helps to activate certain cells in our bodies that greatly help us, but are dormant right now. The resveratrol activates these other cells in our body to give us great benefits to our health and life. To understand this more, watch this video. It helps to clear up what I am talking about a lot more.

Black Grape energy drink is the only drink that not only has this ingredient in it, but it also drives up our energy and just makes you feel great. You also don't feel any crash afterward, so you continue to feel great for a while. Try some out today. You may be surprised at how much better you actually feel. http://bit.ly/5TNLla

My wife and I are trying out another such product that helps to reactivate healthy cells in your body. We just started however, so if it works out as it should, we'll be informing you about it later on.

Black Grape Energy

I love to use energy drinks, but I do not drink any of those high sugar, high caffeine drinks. Those don't give me the kind of energy I need. I need energy that can last me through a shift at work and not bring me down as soon as it wears off.

Peoplestring has recently joined forces with a new company that produces a new energy drink called "Black Grape". This drink uses Resveratrol which is a great new dietary supplement that can improve your own metabolism and even burn more calories through the day.

The energy you get from this drink is a lot like "5 hour energy" where it doesn't smack you in the face making you jittery and such for an hour or so. This is more of a "I no longer need a nap" kind of energy. It feels great for work and improves my mood if I am tired. The problem with "5 hour energy" however, is that the energy is all you get from it. You get no other nutritional value from this drink, but Black Grape gives you the energy, plus the benefits of Resveratrol.

What my wife and I love though is there is no commitment with this drink. You can buy it or not buy it as part of Peoplestring. The really neat thing is however, with every case sold through our own store, we get $9 paid right back to us immediately. Peoplestring is completely free to join, and every member has this option available right when they join. This is not the main focus of Peoplestring, but it is a nice way to get something healthy and make a little money back.

It tastes kind of like a grape soda, but a little more bitter, and the flavor is kind of like eating the skin of grapes, which is where resveratrol is mainly found. As an energy drink, it is a great option. Join Peoplestring for free and use this as one way of making you feel better, and make yourself a little money on top. In these hard times, we all need options.

Check out the drink here. The case may be $50, but break it down for 24 cans, and it is a LOT lower in price than any other energy drink for its value on the market. It is about $2.08 per can.

Peoplestring is going to be huge!

My wife and I have been involved with Peoplestring for just over the past month and we have really gotten excited about what this means for our future.

Peoplestring is an amazing opportunity and involves absolutely no selling whatsoever. It is a website with many features and ways to provide you with additional income.

First off, they share their own revenues with their members. 70% of what advertisers pay them, they pay to us as members. The amount each person gets from this is determined by how much they use the website for their own normal internet use. As you use the site to access anything on the internet, you earn "People Points". These points slowly build up as the month goes on, and when they get the payment from advertisers once per month, the point totals determine exactly how much you are entitled to when weighed with the other members. Clicking on ads does not increase your own earnings and could get you banned if you do it a lot. They get paid from advertising in other ways.

The other way you can earn money is by way of advertising to you based on your own lifestyle.

Think about traditional advertising. TV advertising is a failing market because people tend to turn off commercials, change the channel or mute the TV. Companies spend millions of dollars on these ads and people just tune out. Print ads have the same problem. Newspapers are losing subscribers because they can just read the news online where there are less print ads to see.

This opens up this new way of advertising to consumers. Advertisers are willing to pay a couple of dollars just to get you to read advertising they send you in the mail. When you do this in Peoplestring, there will be a small code on the ad which you enter online to show you got it and looked at it. This earns you money. Even if you don't pay attention to the ad, you still glanced at it and maybe something registered in your mind. This is already better for the advertiser than most TV or Print ads. They got you to look at it.

On the main website is the social portal. From here you can set up a list of your favorite websites on the left hand menu. You can add whatever link you want and name it whatever you want. This allows complete customization for yourself and you no longer have to use your bookmark menu. Each time you click on one of your own links, this is called a "Click-through" and can earn you more "People Points". This not only makes it easier for you to browse the internet, it also can earn you money.

You can also do internet searches using Google from this same page. All the popular social networks and popular email websites are all accessible from this one page, plus it is a complete social network, like Facebook, all in one place.

You can get paid for 6 levels of referrals and there are 2 sign up options. One option is free, which pays you 5% of your direct referral earnings and 2% of levels 2-6 earnings. The second option is an entrepreneur package which is a pay package, but you can earn a lot more money. It is 20% for your direct referrals and 6% for levels 2-6.

This sounds complicated, but it really isn't. You don't have to sell anything, you don't have to carry any inventory. All you do is use the internet as you normally do and introduce this site to some of your friends or family to make a little extra money each month. It is completely free to sign up so there is no risk to you at all.

We have a great training site as well if you are interested in learning how to make this into a great supplemental income to your own, or even take it to a full-time business if you feel inclined. The website is http://www.teaminsomnia1.com

This company will be going public soon, so now is a great time to position yourself for the influx of new people signing up when that happens. To see how popular it already is, visit alexa.com and put peoplestring.com into the site lookup. We are already in the top 5000 of all the websites in the world and getting better each day. When you think about it, that is a real accomplishment.

Check it out today, sign up, have some fun, invite your friends, and start earning money with little effort.

Peoplestring, how does this work?

For people who are interested in Peoplestring but you are not sure if it is legit, This may make it more clear to you. You may be wondering "why would advertisers pay me to look at their ads? There must be something more to this". This may make it easier to understand.

Advertisers on TV spend millions of dollars making and distributing commercials on television. This is not a very good advertising practice because what do most people do these days when commercials come on TV? They leave the room to get a snack, go to the bathroom, maybe they change the channel and come back afterward. Some people even record their shows to watch it later and fast-forward through these commercials.

Advertisers in newspapers and other print media are also in a bad spot. They spend lots of money distributing these ads and again, what do most people do when they get them in the mail or in newspapers? They just ignore them and toss them out without even looking at it, or they skip the pages with ads in the paper etc.

People just don't care.

What can they do to help themselves get their word out? That is where Peoplestring comes in. If someone told you they would pay you money to watch the commercials on TV, would you do it? If someone told you they would pay you to read the ads in the newspaper, would you do that too?

This is what Peoplestring is doing. By paying us to read advertisements, both sides win. You may just be looking for that code to enter on the website to get paid, but even by looking briefly looking at the page, the ad has gotten to you. You will likely remember something about that ad and that is exactly what they want. This method is much more effective than TV ads or newspaper ads and it costs advertisers a lot less overall. Sure each ad is not a huge amount of money, but by getting many each day, it quickly adds up in pay for yourself.

Peoplestring is not a scam. Peoplestring costs nothing for you to try it out. Even if you don't make a ton of money, you will still make some, and with no overhead at all, that is 100% profit for YOU. This business can be very successful for yourself if you take the time and learn all about it and get your friends to join.

Who doesn't want to make some money with NO risk in these hard times? Go ahead, join us and we will support you all the way by sending you materials to help you get started on your way and answer any questions you may have about the program. You have NOTHING to lose and EVERYTHING to gain. Think about it.
