1) Connections and Friends: One of the most important aspects of business and happiness is having a strong network of people whom you are able to depend on. The people who mentor you, are a shoulder to lean on will help create a successful path for you in business.
2) Abstaining From Substances That Cause Intoxication: This applies to two aspects of business life. Not only must the business person conduct all of their business practices while sober and in a clear state of mind but also in the products which they associate with. When you are business consulting or conducting business in line with Buddhist ethics you must not sell products which could cause intoxication. This also goes towards the broader areas of business such as marketing and public relations. Anywhere along the supply chain from creation of the intoxicating substance, to the branding, to the logistics of how the product gets to sale must be abstained from.
3) Don't Lie: In accordance to Buddhist ethics you must not speak false words. This is true for what you say casually to those around you as well as for your business dealings. I am sure you wouldn't find any buddhist Thrower & Schwartz lawyers out there in the world. When involved in marketing of a certain product some firms will inflate their product's capabilities, this is not acceptable in accord to Buddhist ethics. You must also abstain from leading people to believe they are getting a better bargain or deal than they actually are which can be commonplace in modern day businesses.
4) Balance: This can often be seen on popular business blogs as work-life balance however it is more specifically meant to address your spending habits. With Buddhist business ethics balance is key. You mustn't live to luxuriously or too frugally (depending on what you make). It is important not to over or underspend what you make. Moderation is the key to success and happiness for those who practice Buddhist ethics in business.
5) Development: You must always be willing to grow. The transformation process is integral to growing in business and may require a business consultant. You mustn't stay the same way as you were in the beginning or you will not succeed and will be outpaced by those willing to diversify and challenge themselves. It is vastly important to put value on your skill development so that you can become the best that you can be. Professional development will not only help you but also your company and those you surround yourself with.
6) Don't Judge People: Sometimes in modern day business it can be all too common to judge someone's goodness or quality based on their wealth or lack of funds. In Buddhist business ethics this must be abstained from. We must not see money as the end goal and you must certainly not place people's value on their current financial situation. We must treat everyone equally no matter what they make or where they work. It is completely possible for a millionaire not to use his or her wealth to better the world and to have a middle manager making less than $80,000 a year who gives much of their time and salary to charities and good causes.

Reposted from Hollaback! Philly
On March 20, 2011, Nuala Cabral organized the Philadelphia celebration of International Anti-Street Harassment Day, and HollabackPhilly was lucky enough to have participated with her. Cabral recently released footage of the day with commentary by the activists involved in the awareness raising event. The video (below) involves a discussion of street harassment, followed by footage of the Anti-Street Harassment Day events and commentary on the day's successes and lessons. The event occurred in Rittenhouse Square and El Stops in West Philadelphia, and engaged men, young girls, parents, and various other women.
Creating Walking Home connected me with a community of folks who are addressing street harassment through writing, art, film, education and community action. When I heard about Holly Kearl's book and the Anti Street Harassment Day she was spearheading, I knew I had to be involved. Screening Walking Home or viewing it online has been a great way to reach a wide audience and spark dialogue. However, a film, a book, an online magazine does not reach all audiences. Therefore it is necessary to go beyond media and engage with people face to face about this issue.
She also describes many lessons the group learned throughout the day, about the community's response and ourselves.
We learned that many women and men have a story to share about street harassment. Engaging in conversation was a way to validate those stories and voices. Experiencing push back from some people reminded us that we still have work to do, in terms of shifting norms and expectations around street harassment and simply taking a stand.It felt good that we had numbers–solidarity. It was inspiring. Street harassment can make you feel alone and dis-empowered. When we were out there together, I felt empowered and supported.
Chalking on the streets drew people in and led to conversations about why were were there.
The drum also created an environment that was upbeat and energizing. For those of us who are shy, that pulsing beat helped us get out of our comfort zone.
I agree with her that the drums energized the event, not only for the activists but also for the surrounding community. It also made us more approachable and less intimidating. The chalk had a similar effect while also making the discussion interactive and engaging.
I was part of the Rittenhouse portion of the event and many women shared stories with us about prior street harassment incidents, a few men pushed back and told us the line is too blurry between harassment and a compliment, and a few parents went on to explain street harassment to their daughters as their daughters drew pictures with the chalk.
All in all, it was an effective day of awareness raising in a city that needs the anti-street harassment discussion. We look forward to working with Cabral in the future to continue bringing the discussion to the streets!
We are so close! With only one day to go (39 hours to be exact), we still need to raise a little over $5,000. The flood of supporters that have come through has been truly incredible, and we are so grateful. Just yesterday we raised over $6,000 from over 50 people. If we do it again today we'll meet our goal. Do it on Thursday and we'll exceed our goal.
To our supporters: thank so much for getting us this far, and let's keep this campaign going through the final stretch. Be sure to let your friends and family know about the campaign if you haven't already, and most importantly, thanks for having our backs. You know we've got yours too.
Rare are summer days in Houston when the weather cools from the oppressively swampy to merely sultry. Whenever such an opportunity presents itself, few would blame me for wanting to slip out of my desk and into the sunshine. I didn't take a lunch break, anyways. Nobody would mind if I ran to the bookstore for a metaphorical minute.
As I walk along Main Street, between its intersections with Lamar and Dallas, a stranger saunters up to me. His body now merely millimeters from mine, he demands, "Let me pick you up and carry you home. I have to carry you and take you home with me right now." Loud enough for a 5-person band of onlookers to start quietly paying attention.
I panic. "GO FUCK YOURSELF!" Not the most mature of reactions, but fear and a desire to intimidate preclude creativity. Our audience continues staring.
He shrinks back, raising his volume and desperately whining, "But I have to do SOMETHING to you! I need to take you back to my home and do something. Let me carry you home and we'll talk about this."
"GO! FUCK! YOURSELF!" Finally, the man jerks his head away and turns to walk off in the other direction. My voice transcends my meager frame. Gives me power. Authority. A strength beyond whatever it is I'm bench pressing these days. "I AM NOT A PIECE OF MEAT, SIR!" rockets towards his back. Cliché to be certain, and not my proudest moment. But it gets the point across succinctly. A glare shot at the throng transfixed by our encounter. Lips pressed tightly into themselves. Eyes narrowed to nothing more than paper cuts, albeit obscured by prescription sunglasses.
They look away. Huffy. Bored. One man mutters, "Such language…"
Humiliation. An overarching sensation of dehumanization prickles my internals and externals alike. Saline stings the backs of my eyelids. A quaking, shaking blancmange of a thoroughly ashamed, embarrassed and just plain angry young woman. Deliberate encroachment onto my personal space, overtures of sexual violence and a complete lack of disrespect for my autonomy, agency and consent…and they take offense at the language I use to convey my flashpoint rage! He and I provided them with the day's sensational entertainment, not a pathetic tableau of harassment. I question whether or not their apathy would have finally dissolved had this horrid man attempted to genuinely hurt me.
And I am incredibly fortunate he intended to intimidate more than actually injure, but all the same there exists no compelling justification for his actions (sorry, victim-blamers, but I was wearing a loose-fitting Muppets t-shirt and even more comfortable jeans that day). Nor those who saw fit to treat us as free, live theatre. Their silence gave this man permission to treat another woman with such a callous dismissal of her independence. Their chiding my self-defense enabled yet another incident of public harassment and verbal assault to end up an exercise in shaming the recipient. Of neglecting to change the rhetoric of gender-based violence.
But hey! It only takes something as easy and minor as the complete overhaul of societal perceptions towards street harassment, sexual assault and rape to reverse this attitude! Neither I nor anyone else deserves to inhabit a world where something simple like running to pick up a copy The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks ends up a disheartening lesson in how Americans react when confronted with very public verbal and physical harassment. Public places belong to the public, not just those intending to badger, bully or brutalize the innocent. And that is why those of us with stories to tell – all narratives, be they victim, bystander or a loved one hearing about everything later in the day – must ensure the populace learns of them. Education, not dressing differently or agoraphobia or constantly looking over your shoulder, remains just about the only truly effective, sustainable weapon in our stash.
Credit and thanks go to Hollaback! Houston supporter James Collins with Savage Serenity Studios and Space City Nerd for helping me with edits!
What? Hollaback NYC is inviting community members and organizations to take a stand against street sexual harassment. For too long, women and girls have been victims of sexual harassment, assault, rape, socio-economic and political violence…. and silence has been the response in many of our communities. During these hot summer days, many look to affirm their "power" through constant street sexual harassment and inappropriate remarks made to women and young girls… If street harassment is "okay," then other forms of violence are okay. Hollaback says "Enough is enough! It is not okay!"
It is our right to never let anyone make us feel any less than our confident and badass self, so on Friday, July 8th we will be sharing strength, looking to unite forces with community members and organizations to encourage women and girls to…. Hollaback!
Join us! There will be music and speakers….
When? Friday, July 8th, 2011 at 5:30 p.m.
It is time for community members and organizations to build unity and strength to create safer streets, where our women and men of all ages can walk safely and feel free of any type of harassment.
We've raised $11,355 and we've got over $13,000 to go in only 5 days. Do you have our back? Of course you do! So keep supporting us by asking friends and family to donate. And if you haven't donated yet – do it now! Your donation will be matched by our generous board of directors.
Here's a sample letter to send to your loved ones:
Dear Friends and Family,
I'm contacting you today because of an effort I truly believe deserves your support. Hollaback! is an international movement to end street harassment (sexual harassment in public spaces). Over the past year, this tiny non-profit has organized volunteer activists in 24 cities in 10 countries – to work to end street harassment within their own communities. Though street harassment is the most common form of violence experienced in women's lives, Hollaback! is one of the only efforts to prevent street harassment.
Due to my working late, and smoking habit that I can't seem to drop, I am kind of the de facto neighborhood watch. It is a relatively safe neighborhood, but I've heard some weird stuff here and there. I've called 911 before when I heard a woman screaming. It turned out to be a drunken domestic dispute (but happening in the middle of the street). I do have a bit of hyper-vigilance, so I tend to mistake the sounds of drunken carousing with something much worse at times, but I figure embarrassment is better than serious danger.
I called the police again 2 nights ago. I saw a woman, who was screaming, be picked up by two men. I ran inside, grabbed my phone, and by the time I got a hold of someone, they were gone. I went close to the area that they were at, but there weren't any signs of where they had gone, and I was reluctant to investigate it too much, because I didn't want to get surprised if they were in a spot where they could see me. I also didn't know if they were armed.
The police came in about 10 minutes, and checked the area. I have no idea if they found anything. I also have no idea of what I saw. It was dark, far away, maybe this was drunken carousing, maybe I gave her time and space to get away if it was as bad as it looked.
In short, between running to where they were to directly see what was happening and help, and grabbing my phone to call the police, I chose the second option. This has left me with very little information, and a sickening feeling that I am a coward and should have done more. I hope that everything worked out, or it wasn't what it looked like, but I'll never know.

Hollaback! Baltimore shares why the "I've Got Your Back" campaign is so important. We've only got 7 days to go and over $15,000 to reach our goal! And the absolute truth is that we can't do this without you. Please donate so that none of us ever has to Hollaback alone.
It's amazing (shocking, really), the types of things you'll see if you observe carefully. Much of the time, when you start to become more alert to seeing things going down, you'll be unable to do anything about it. Here's an example: When you're on the subway train, and you witness overtly aggressive behavior, seemingly out of the blue. A young man is shoving an older, conservatively dressed man out of his way as he exits the car. Most people look up just in time from fiddling with their smart phone, the book they're falling asleep reading, their children pawing at them, whatever, and think "What the hell?" But what they didn't see was the older man's briefcase, heavy as a boulder with law briefs, knocking into this poor guy's knees over and over again as he sat there in front of him. Each time the car swayed, whack! and not even a "sorry" for this young man that had already said, "Dude, watch your bag, you're hitting my knees!" And what none of them on that car could possibly know was that exactly eighteen minutes before, that young man had just gotten fired from his second job in three months. So the fuse had been lit, but nobody was the wiser, until the older guy was given a shove, which later, when he took off his shirt at the end of the day, resulted in a nasty black-and-blue mark on his shoulder.
So that's an example of an unpremeditated violent situation, which could have been avoided. Not to say the older man deserved what he got, because there really isn't an excuse for reacting to behavior which was not intentional in a violent manner, not in a civilized society. The younger man probably should have (a) realized he was in an emotionally impaired state, and checked himself, and (b) gotten up and changed seats, realizing that the other man wasn't going to stop his insensitive behavior. And of course, if the man hadn't used his briefcase as a meat tenderizer, the whole thing wouldn't have happened anyway. But the point is that, much of the time, we may actually be able to "see it coming" so to speak, and stop the train wreck before it happens. Next week, we'll take a look at the more malevolent expression of violence, the predator-prey relationship. Until then, be safe out there! You never know what is going on in the lives of people standing or sitting right next to you in public.
We've only got 9 days to go and over $15,000 more to raise to reach our goal! We need your help to make sure that no one ever has to Hollaback alone. Support our campaign here, and check out the ABC article here!
My girlfriend and I were waiting for a bus, and some guy kept standing really close and trying to chat up a woman. She was in a wheelchair, and the street was crowded, so when she was trying to inch away from him, he had a significant edge on maneuvering around, and kept getting close. I stepped in between, and asked him why he had to make people uncomfortable. He was more confused than confrontational, and I couldn't really tell if he was on something or maybe didn't have good English, but he didn't really give any reasonable reply. Just some quiet mutterings. I kept myself between him and the wheelchair using woman (as well as my girlfriend) until we got on the bus. He got on after us (without paying), and was more towards the front than us, so it was basically done then. He got off a couple of stops later dragging his arm across a woman's chest along the way.
I didn't know if he was planning on following the wheelchair using woman after her bus ride or not, but I was extremely troubled that no one else took a stance as things were happening. And maybe I helped stop something terrible. It's impossible to know. I was happy that I made someone feel (and maybe be) safer, but it's pretty disheartening to think that this guy has an opportunity to harass people without much response.
Shouldn't every story of harassment end just like this one? It's possible, we just have to teach people how to do it and celebrate it when they do. Donate to the "I've got your back" campaign. Only 10 days to go!

It all started with a phone call. Just a little phone call. A situation had arisen that the authorities needed to discuss with us.
It ends with us as the Hyatt's most loyal customers ever.
To make a long story short, mostly because tomorrow I'll have acres of time to tell you more than you want to know about it, we're quarantined in China. The people seated behind us on the plane have the flu. As in, really have it, not have symptoms. For now–unless one of our throat cultures tests positive–we're staying here, eating room service and watching bootleg dvds, until Wednesday. Probably. Things change on a dime.
3 adults, 3 kids, three rooms…think of it as Quarantine, the reality show. Maybe we'll take videos.

During the week of March 15, you will receive a very important mailing from the United States Census. The few minutes that it will take to complete the Census form could amount to less time than you spend standing in line at the grocery check out line or at the movie theater or waiting for a beverage at your favorite coffee shop. But, the potential benefits to you and the County of filling out the form are long-lasting. County Executive Ike Leggett has stated that the goal is to have every single person living in the County counted.
The Census occurs every 10 years, and getting everyone to respond is important because the results are used to establish our County's representation in Congress and in the Maryland General Assembly. Federal funding for many essential education, transportation and human services are set by the population counted in the Census. Montgomery County will lose thousands of federal dollars for every resident we fail to count. The Census form is easy to fill out. Just 10 questions will take you only 10 minutes to complete and will help determine Montgomery County's future for the next 10 years. Please include every person living in your residence, and remember that information on individual residents collected by the Census will not be shared with others. Mail the questionnaire back by April 1.

Meal solutions in Center Store have hit their stride, as evidenced by retailers' increasingly sophisticated answer to the perennial consumer question, "What's for Dinner?" Since only one-quarter of U.S. households today comprise a "traditional family" of one bread winner and one stay-at-home parent, it's no surprise to anybody that bread-bakers are harder to come by. Stepping into the gap are savvy retailers and vendors with meal solutions for time-starved families -- who the experts say ...

July 09, 2014
Zubair Zhman, 32, passed away in the early morning hours on Saturday, July 5, 2014 in a hospital in Islamabad, Pakistan. He was diagnosed with cancer.
Zhman joined RFE/RL's Afghan service, known locally as Radio Azadi, as a field reporter in Kabul in 2007. His colleagues quickly came to revere him for his journalistic skills, dedication, and compassion.
In 2010 he was promoted to the position of chief editor of Radio Azadi's Pashto division, a position he held until his death.
Zhman's death elicted a torrent of comments from colleagues and listeners of Radio Azadi. Hundreds of people expressed their condolences on their Facebook pages.
In a written statement that was also broadcast on national television, Afghan President Hamid Karzai called Zhman's demise "a great loss for Afghan media," and expressed Karzai's condolences to Zhman's family, colleagues, and friends. On Monday, a member of the president's office visited the family and made a tribute of 5000USD.
Minister of Information and Culture Sayed Makhdoom Rahin called Zhman a "talented journalist and a gifted writer and translator."
The Kabul-based Afghanistan Center for Journalists (AFJC) recalled Zhman's talent and called his demise a great loss for Afghan media.
RFE/RL Editor in Chief Nenad Pejic said that Zhman led his colleagues with "wisdom, courage, and compassion," and that "he was a model to reporters in the region and elsewhere who believe in the fundamental right to information and the power of the truth."
Zhman was a steadfast follower of the doctrine of nonviolence of Mahatma Gandhi and Khan Abdul Ghafar Khan (Bacha Khan). He wrote and translated several books and essays on the nonviolent struggle of Ghafar Khan in the territory that is today's Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province in Pakistan.
Zhman is survived by a wife and two-year-old daughter.

News 12 First at Five / Tuesday, July 9, 2013
AUGUSTA, Ga. (WRDW) -- Bryon Willis loves the Riverwalk.
"You can bring your sweetheart out here by yourself and at night. It kind of sets the mood," he said.
And Willis would know. News 12 caught him stealing more than a few kisses on a date there with Jenny Grayson on Tuesday.
"I'm from Savannah, and the riverfront there is open all night," Grayson said.
Sheriff Richard Roundtree would like the Riverwalk to close starting at 11 p.m. until sunrise.
The sheriff is also asking city leaders to start a business improvement district for 5th to 13th street.
Having property owners pay more for extra service is nothing new. Property owners who News 12 talked to thought that years ago.
"No one would ever listen to us," said Bill Prince.
Prince and his family have owned Bill's Place liquor store since the Prohibition.
"We want all the money to be used to bring extra police to downtown and only downtown Augusta," he said.
Prince is also for the idea of having downtown owners buy into a network of 32 surveillance cameras, but he doesn't like the idea of closing the Riverwalk at all.
"Eleven at night is pretty early. You can argue whatever time, but if we're paying more money for deputies downtown, I expect to have more. Period."
And as for Willis and Grayson, they don't want to have to kiss this spot goodbye.

Q:A:Mesa Creek is a good neighborhood. There is a mix of other builders, so all the homes won't look the same. It has easy access to Hwy 90 and 1604 which will get you to any part of town as quickly as traffic will allow. If you want free representation call me. I will make sure that you get everything the builder has to offer. There is no fee to have me side saddle while you make your selection. Plus having someone on your side during the process to bounce idea off besides the builder will come in handy and you pay nothing for my service.

Q:A:Yes. You must send then a letter stating your reasons and tell them you want to cancel the listing. Look at your listing agreement and it should have a termination clause and if there are any fees you have to pay. I believe there is a time period between when they receive the letter and when they must cancel the listing. Marty Shields Real Living / Best Homes email@example.com 210-725-9607
Q:A:I am retired military, I moved every two or three years for twenty plus years. Realtors do the work before a contract is written to make sure the "buyers", are qualified to buy your home. I tried FSBO a couple of times but timing was always an issue. Someone calls wants to see the home makes an appointment then doe's not show up. Also as the owner letting strangers in your home when you know nothing about them is a risk at best. Hiring a Full time Real Estate agent will get your home sold without the worry.

Bulldogs superstar Ben Barba favourite for Dally M medal
- From: The Daily Telegraph
- July 17, 2012
CANTERBURY winger Jonathan Wright has backed teammate Ben Barba to take out this year's Dally M Medal after inspiring the Bulldogs to seven consecutive victories.
Barba added another stunning try to his highlights reel in Friday's 32-12 win over Parramatta, racing the length of the field to score.
He also had an assist in three of his side's five tries, including one for Wright, as Des Hasler's men moved level on points with Melbourne at the top of the ladder.
Barba has been the NRL's standout player over the last month and Wright, who scored twice against the Eels, said his sparkling performances had lifted the side.
"There are no real words to describe Benny," Wright said.
"He is a freak.
"It's just pure talent. He's had to work on his game under the high ball, but with his positioning and fitness, he's proving all the critics wrong."
"He lifts the team and whenever he gets the ball in his hands, you're expecting something to happen."
Former Eel Wright played alongside Jarryd Hayne when he won his Dally M Medal in 2009 and believes Barba can emulate the NSW star's achievement this year.
"I will be disappointed if he doesn't get it," he said.

I knew it was a scam from the moment I began reading the letter. No one flatters you that much unless they want something. As I was skeptical, I decided to research this on the internet. I came across this website as well as a few others. All of the comments were the same. "This is a scam." "Burn this immediately." etc.
However, I noticed some of the details had changed. This posting is my way of warning you to the changes in the letter.
"Kristen Hart" is now simply known as "Kate" or "Katie." (The typist wrote Kate, but the letter is signed Katie.) There is no mention of a name for the society anymore. The letter simply calls it "the association."
The return address on the envelope you are to send back is
PO Box 6304
Dover, DE 19905-6304
The area code for the fax number is listed as Rochester/Niagra Falls. These are listed in New York. So far (counting the return address on the envelope you recieved the letter in) we're looking at 3 different states.
I have posted this to update you to the evolution of this long running scam. I have seen postings on this that go as far back as 2006.
Consumer be wary.

The sys admin's daily grind: Cluster SSH
Spontaneously Simultaneous
Charly doesn't relish the idea of searching through the logfiles of a dozen proxy servers when page requests fail. Now that he has deployed Cluster SSH, he can pull the strings on many machines at the same time.
To load balance and improve availability, you first need to organize your servers in a cluster. To remove the element of surprise from cluster management, all of the member servers should be identical – which makes the cluster easy to manage but also makes the task really boring. Cluster SSH [1], which saves you a load of work with very little overhead, has a minimalist Tk interface with a text input box. Commands you type in the box are run on all connected servers (Figure 1).

It solved my wireless dificulties!
This is the first time I have written a product review. But I was so skeptical that any wireless router was going to solve my dead spots and poor connections in my home that when this did, I feel like I have to let others know. I was convinced that my home is an electromagnetic black hole because I have difficulties with every device I have in the house. My wireless laptop had great connection with other Netgear routers in every other environment but my house. I replaced my router with a Netgear WGR 614 (g) in the fall, 2004 and my connectivity was still unreliable. I have a Dell Inspiron 5100 with an internal wireless card. Unless I was within 15 feet of the router, my connection would fade in and out and when it was in, it would only transmit at 3-5 mbps. Needless to say, my wireless experience was disappointing at best. The claims of this Rangemax seemed too good to be true. But it is true! It was easy to set up (even for a mom!) with the included set-up wizard on CD-ROM. And now I can move all over the house, in the yard, near the home entertainment center, near the laundry appliances (lots of metal which killed my signal before) and I keep a strong signal and the speed is never lower than 18 mbps! Awesome! And I'm still using the internal wireless card. At first I thought the price was a little much considering my current router was less than a year old, but it was worth every penny. If you're having connectivity problems, give it a try!

Thanks to this site, I was able to find several numbers that finally led me to find the right ones! Here you go. Good luck!
918-473-0028 for Bonnie (call her if you want to get your magazines)
866-762-1037 for Tom Gonzales (call him if you want a refund)
Bonnie and Tom said they are from Publication Services of America. The company (companies) the orders were placed under went out of business. They are trying to make it right, they said.
You can fax your receipt in. (Sorry, I didn't get the fax number.)
Alternatively, you can scan the receipt and send it by email to email@example.com. Tom said to also write out your name, address, phone number, order amount, and receipt number in case it is not legible on the scan. He said they would call with verification of receipt and processing. He said I would then receive a money order for the amount in 15-20 business days.
I will follow up if this doesn't work out.
Good luck!
Like others, I'm done with any solicitors.

However, one of the people I contacted from another number found on this site did actually call me back, too.
Nicole (or Nichole?) at 480-250-0671 returned a message I had left. She does not handle PMA tickets, but referred me to the toll-free number I listed above for Thomas. I believe she handles other Entrepreneurs Across America claims, or can at least point you in the right direction.
Good luck!

Would any former employees from this company specifically state how to rescind contract within 5 days? (dude from Idaho?) I am within the 5 day period but do not know what to do. I have sent my return reciept certified letter requesting refund. I realize that most of the comments are from people outside the 5 day period. Thank god for this ripoffreport.com's service since it has by far the most current postings available regarding this issue.
I truly wish that I had taken the time to research this "service." I run a contracting business and now what faith the consumer has to place in vendors and this service is a disgrace to all retailers, service providers, and all of humanity!

#1 Consumer Suggestion
Call Franchise Relations
SUBMITTED: Monday, April 24, 2006POSTED: Monday, April 24, 2006
Call the UCC Direct buy headquarters at 219-73
6-1100 x119 and speak to a franchise relations person. Explain your disatisfaction and why you felt as though you were mislead and be very explicite. I actually found Jackie to be very interested in what was happening in Shrewsbury and quite polite and helpful. Even though they would like individual franchises to work things out with members, when I told them that the Shrewsbury store was giving Direct Buy a bad name and mentioned going to a public forum with my concerns I received immediate satisfaction. Direct Buy may be good for some but not those who are educated in the construction business.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?
#2 Consumer Comment
Is it really a scam?
AUTHOR: Jason - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Saturday, March 18, 2006POSTED: Saturday, March 18, 2006
You said that "it has to be a scam to make the numbers work." Why? The company profits from your membership...not the products you order. Any shipping or handling fees cover the actual shipping costs, the product inspections, and any other fees the center may incur (there is no margin/markup for them to be built into). When you attend an "open house," they tell you that if you don't have any moderate purchases to make, you may not benefit from the concept. If this was a scam, the company wouldn't be registered (and recognized) by the BetterBusinessBureau, a Fortune500 company, or in business for over 33 years.
In response to your question about rescending your membership, all you have to do is go to the center and tell them you would like a refund for your membership. They will give it to you (within the 3 or 5 day time frame).
My point is, DirectBuy is not a scam. It may not be a fit for everyone, but it is not a scam. There are hundreds of thousands of DirectBuy members, and the majority of them will tell you the same things I have.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?
