		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been suffering a customer care nightmare with Sprint that is simultaneously very frustrating personally and quite revealing from a business perspective. Previously I&#8217;d been a pretty happy customer, impressed with how much their customer service had improved since I was a customer years and years ago in college. In fact, since we got a [...]]]></description>

Working in the strategic and operations sides of hospitality, marketing for me is basically [...]]]></description>

In the three months since I&#8217;ve posted last, quite a bit has happened.

		<description><![CDATA[The other day, I caught the tail end of an interview with Dan Ariely, the Fuqua professor who wrote the bestseller Predictably Irrational: The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions. It&#8217;s definitely worth a listen, although if you&#8217;ve already read the book there&#8217;s a lot of duplicated content. I was about halfway through the book [...]]]></description>
