A Culture Of Mediocrity

If you prest attention to any amount of business news you have probably seen the constant reporting about how company x or y is bad by demanding too much from its employees.

Some examples lately are about how Apple is bad by asking that employees return to work in person. How Amazon is bad because it expects its contracted delivery drivers to deliver on time. And so many other cases in every industry.

We see employees complaining we see investors complaining we even see customers complaining. Apparently is bad if a company wants to offer a better product, better service, or a better experience and demand that its employee deliver the quality promised.

Why can’t a company expect the best from its employees? And why do so many people side with mediocre employees? The company should lower its standards if an employee isn’t a fit it should be let go and that spot filled with someone that can deliver.

If we keep supporting mediocrity instead of getting a same day or two days delivery we will get another USPS or FEDEX Ground. Two of the most mediocre companies around.

Yes I Want MagSafe In The iPad

Rumors have been floating for some time now that Apple is planning to add MagSafe to the iPad soon. And time and time I see people with a lack of imagination complaining that MagSafe in an iPad is useless because finding the right spot to put the puck is a hassle.

Ignoring that lame logic for a moment. Who says it needs to be a puck anyways?

I will love to have a Magsafe stand where I just drop my iPad when not using it and not be looking for a cable. Something like the Kindle Paperwhite has with the Wireless Charging Dock.

Amazon Shamelessly Ripoff Peak Design Everyday Sling Bag [ video ]

Amazon is continuing with its pattern of seeing a product that's selling well on its platform and making a knock-off version of it.

This time they have copied Peaks Design’s Every Day Sling and made an AmazonBasics version that Amazon is calling the AmazonBasics Every Day Sling yes that's correct they even copied the name.

Now I don’t know how good it is as I have a policy of not supporting knock-off items but I own a Peak Design Every Day Sling and have been using it daily for years and is still in amazing condition. Peak Design products are made to last and it's a shame that Amazon is mining sales data to rip off Peak Design creation. The team at Peak Design has made a short parody video about this situation and you can see it below.

If you are looking at both of this bag do you self a favor and buy the quality one the original one from Peak Design Here
