Then how much of that is collecting Prime Club revenues or people just having Prime for the streaming services rather than unsubsidized by Prime Warehouse Club revenue sales? As in people just buying objects from them without another commitment?

Are the webhosting profits and retail profits separated so that we can see if the webhosting is overshadowing selling, general and administrative?

Overconvinece for the price: When things are priced at MSRP (as they are on there) but the losses come from making people pee their pants, crash their vans, drive around town at 5AM on a Sunday instead of at home with their families and still manage to lose money on the transaction because it's unrealistic to deliver that many individual objects to a bazillion different places. If the real price of dropping a 100-pack of paper clips from a Huey (which is essentially what they are doing) was reflected they would be $200. But instead the paper clips are at MSRP on Amazon. Don't assume a company is good just because YOU give them a lot of money. I was able to separate what I like with what is worthwhile a long time ago. Owning an IROC-Z is stupid. Metal kinda sucks most of the time. And I guarantee you still have to go to the store. All the time.

So each time a company gets a new CEO now everyone that works there has to worry if they are going to lose their job if they don't want to move to whatever random city the CEO is from. Liked working Downtown? Too bad. Live in Kentucky? Sucks to be you. One reason Columbus split up into Cool and Uncool Crescents is that so many jobs moved from DT up to Dublin/Worthington/Westerville/Polaris that half the city got hollowed out from being too far from them.

Don't care about gross profit. Net profit only. Revenue is nothing without net profit. We can't allow a webhosting company to destroy meatspace just because they have a retail division that exists merely so that they don't have to pay taxes on their webhosting profit. We all know how to read financial statements and we're better avoiding data mining bias than people who think Amazon is doing anything worthwhile. It's SUPER easy to increase your sales when you underprice/overconvienece things -- the easiest thing in the world. People who like Amazon can justify anything.

If you've ever tried to ride an MTB on the dirt bike and ATV trails at Wayne National, you can appreciate this. While mountain bikes are an approved use on them, you're ready to suffer a coronary after about 10 minutes on most of them.

People want a Tesla but need to go to Dollar General.

No, people just have to like them. Boring companies that print money are bad investments. Give it sunglasses, a Mohawk and a skateboard and it can lose infinite money forever. That's how childish this all is.

At this rate it won't be long until people start realizing that these internet companies are just as big of snakes as the old railroad barons and Sugar Trust.

The Cincinnati office was a constant reminder that Lazarus bought them instead of vice versa.

That's the exact thing that happened with Sbarro moving to Columbus. The Sbarro CEO is a Columbus guy who worked for Wendy's. Or when Anchor-Hocking sold and the new people were like "I'm not living in Lancaster" so the HQ moved to Columbus despite operations being located in Lancaster. Perhaps if the Uncool Crescent of Columbus wasn't so uncool the execs would have moved to Groveport, Pickerington, Canal Winchester or the SE Side and drove into Lancaster every day but no.

The Cincinnati HQ was a reminder that Lazarus bought them rather than the other way around. Lazarus was so bad ass.

Heh heh heh... their boss the Sales Manager doesn't like this, though, because now they can't find enough people

Hot Dog Street: Formerly Frankenfurter Street

People spent the '90s and 2000s whining that way too many people studied the humanities. Now nobody studies them so they don't know how to make a sales pitch or defend themselves against one.

Hmm, so Acre didn't make it then. The Chambers/Northwest Blvd. corner is tougher than you'd think. I oughta know -- my first store was there.

there's way too many people out there that think they are going to get rich by finding objects. I blame cable TV for this nearly 100 percent.

That's how Columbus got Sbarro.

It goes to show how important casual users are to most companies and how the "core" people are too hard to please, few in number, and often poorly funded.

I don't think anyone anticipated the effects that Universal Couchlock would have on campus areas. When the projects from the 2000s were proposed, everyone thought things would just be a continuation of '90s hustle and bustle at all hours of the day. Losing Christmas and partially losing summertime didn't matter. Nowadays, so much of the college experience revolves around sitting at a computer that it's much harder to make money in the physical space. It doesn't help that all the buildings get replaced with high rent new ones that make it even harder to battle Universal Couchlock.

There may be some good points in there, but since the author insisted on making every other sentence a close it made me distrust it.

Wasn't sure; some schools remodel everything all the time

How does residence/dining hall look now? Is it too 2013 inside?

Have their electric bill go down by thousands of dollars a month from April to October and massively reduce their carbon footprint, that's what.

Do you think their data may be outdated? Walnut Woods and Scioto Audubon are fairly new or at least have newer acerage and features.
