Over the past decade, the Bangkal strip in Evangelista, Pasay City, has become a favorite haunt of the cooler than cool for picking up castaway furniture and fixtures once installed in their art deco homes, these pieces are transformed from someone else’s junk into items worthy of home magazine spreads.

My previous manager suits very well to the term
“Micromanager” because he is midget and looks like a gremlin (the bad one, not the cute one). But kidding aside, that term applies to managers who uses micromanagement. So when he manages his people he is always a failure because he frequently apply micromanagement.
To define micromanagement from Wikipedia:
In business management, micromanagement is a management style where a manager closely observes or controls the work of their employees, generally used as a pejorative term. In contrast to giving general instructions on smaller tasks while supervising larger concerns, the micromanager monitors and assesses every step. Micromanagement is instantly recognized by employees, but typically micromanagers never think of themselves as micromanagers.

Business today spend most of their time finding new customers and spend much on advertising just to get even a handful of them. Afterwards, if they already are a loyal customer they forget the ways how to retain them. For example, those banks that offer credit cards. Today we can see most of their advertisements and promos and are offering a very minimal interest just to balance transfer the amount to them. Then you became a customer to them because you now owe them and whatever future purchases you will make on your new credit card.
How about the existing member? most of the credit card companies don’t offer a low interest term on the balance of the existing member. But not all of them are like that, some bank I know have a paylite option so at least they have a flexible payment term, I stayed there (Credit Card A) and gave up the other(Credit Card B). I remembered when I was still their member (Credit Card B) I asked them if they can offer me a reduced flexible payment term like what they are offering for their new prospects. The answer is “no”. So when the time came I can pay all the balance on the card, I closed it up. The company can offer low interest on balance transfer for new members but can’t help their existing member to reduce their interest rate nor offered a flexible payment terms.
