True. I think they are playing on free marketing and fame, helping the company stay in limelight.

The South doesn’t want this smug bozo buying up all our property. It’s getting expensive enough here even without his real estate scheme

Actual happiness comes from finding happiness and meaning in your every day life. It’s not something that is attained at some unknown date in the future. It’s being grateful for what you already have, and working towards what you want in the future. I find great joy and satisfaction from working towards my future goals and appreciating what I have now. And my meaning in life comes from building family relationships. In your opinion, what do you think gives your life happiness and meaning?

When I was just out of college, I worked in a call center for a Fortune 500 company. One night, ten minutes before my shift was scheduled to end, I received a call from a customer. They needed simple maintenance performed on their account. But, for some reason, they were LIVID! From the second I picked up the receiver, I was bombarded with a profane tirade that went on and on. "I WANT A MANAGER!," he eventually shrieked. So, I connected the call... to a Taco Bell manager in Idaho.
