Stilgherrian Rattles Their Cages

By Nick Hodge | December 17, 2007

It is dif­fi­cult to believe any organ­isa­tion lives in the mid 20th Century.

Yet, Stilgher­rian has found one. Maybe it’s his vet?

There will be a point where us Generation-X-ers start wor­ry­ing about the future rather than the size of our LCD/Plasma screens. We’ll look to our par­ents and apo­lo­gise for our self-centred-ness (whilst under­neath blam­ing the me-generation of the 1970s) In our con­cern and wor­ries, we’ll real­ise our kids are highly digit­ally social­ised and our seni­ors are con­vers­ing with them. We’ve missed the boat. We’re in the gen­er­a­tional chasm.

If you don’t get it, get Mike’s busi­ness to help. They’re not only nat­ive, they’re going feral.

Ahh, Christ­mas. Dontcha just love it? Brings out the Scrooge McDick­ens in all of us.

    The busi­ness in ques­tion is a women’s shoe boutique, with four stores scattered across the Sydney basin. You’d think there’d be plenty of oppor­tun­ity to gen­er­ate repeat busi­ness via teh inter­tubes, or at least coordin­ate the stores more effectively.

    I bet the owner spends all day driv­ing around between the stores col­lect­ing basic man­age­ment data.
