This blog is dedicated to everyone who has ever been selfishly inconvenience by anyone, anything anywhere. As a wise man/women once said "The path to truth is long and lined the entire way with annoying bastards."
The intent is not only to rant, but to create a forum of ideas. How can we eliminate inconvenience from our lives in our lifetime?
I saw this today and it reminded me of a recent MediaPost Marketing Daily email article. I looked it up, but the links appear to be dead - so I can't get to the full email. How inconvenient! Here is waht I was able to lift from the March 25th email:
Quality? Who Cares? Shoppers Now Favor Price, Convenience by Sarah Mahoney [Research] "Economic factors, such as gas prices and the housing market, are changing shoppers' habits drastically," says Scott Marden, director of marketing research at the Baltimore-based Vertis.

We're currently placing our first online grocery order. I think I'm about to learn how inconvenient my life has been so far. Convenience is like Chinese handcuffs. It only works in one direction. As soon as I realize how easy it will be to order my groceries online, I will find the actual shopping experience (at least at some grocery chains) to be a hassle. But this is all in the context of lugging your stuff through Manhattan so I guess it's a bit skewed!
