Behind the scenes at IO's new Chandler data center plant
IO data centers has opened its first manufacturing factory in Chandler to make its modular data centers on four manufacturing lines.
IO president and founder Anthony Wanger and Andrew Feller, vice president of manufacturing, gave me an exclusive tour last week to check out the new 164,486-square-foot factory that opened in March near Country Club Drive and Elliot Road.
The global data center company moved its two manufacturing lines from its global headquarters in Phoenix off 48th Street and the Loop 202 to make room for its growing data center expansion.

Saturday's 1-1 draw left us level on points with Southampton, Liverpool and Charlton in joint sixth in the Premiership on Saturday night, six points behind Chelsea and Everton in fourth and fifth.
Starting without key players Dean Richards and Robbie Keane, we played some of our best football of the season in the first half at Stamford Bridge and it took a special free-kick from Gianfranco Zola to level Teddy Sheringham's opener.
We also forced Carlo Cudicini into three superb saves with the last in the final minute to deny Matthew Etherington's chance of glory.
"I thought the performance was very, very good," beamed Glenn. "I was delighted with it.
"To play without Deano and Robbie, two players who have been playing particularly for us and then lose Anthony Gardner as well, it shows there is a strength in depth to the squad.
"Rightly so, we should be putting ourselves under pressure to go and get a place in Europe.
"Performances like that prove to me, as manager, that we're capable of doing that."

DevOps is often described as a combination of technology and culture. Without both, DevOps isn't complete. However, applying the culture to outdated technology is a recipe for disaster; as response times grow and connections between teams are delayed by technology, the culture will die. A Nutanix Enterprise Cloud has many benefits that provide the needed base for a true DevOps paradigm.

It is quite understandable - and, quite possibly, justifiable, right and proper - that people are laughing at the campaign launched today by Mary Creagh for more girl trains in Thomas the Tank Engine.
However, perhaps it behoves us to inhibit our natural response and ask if she is onto something. Perhaps the formation of our daughters' minds by this stereotyping is inhibiting their growth and development and their life choices.
But somehow I don't think so. Based on a small, completely unscientific selection of the women and girls I know, it seems unlikely.
I know a disproportionate number of women and girls who have been raised in traditional or conservative ways, with no quarter given to gender theory and other such…
Yet, most of the traditionally-minded women I know are feisty and individual; and the rising generation of younger women and girls in those circles are more so.
Of course, I look to my own daughters first, having been brought up to believe that a mother's place is shackled in the kitchen, and that they should, of course, pursue girly subjects. So Ant has has picked up a 1st in Maths at Masters level. Bernie is doing what the BBC seems to think is a girly subject: Fine Art - following in the footsteps of such docile and submissive women as Renoir, Gaugin, Monet, Mondrian, Picasso, and so on.
Looking around at their friends, I see similar: intelligent, independently-minded and fearsomely confident young women - all raised by people with views as reactionary as mine. Odd, isn't it?
Few of them aspire to be train drivers, though...

Fiesta Bowl reduces staff by about 50 percent
The Fiesta Bowl has made another round of layoffs — reducing its staff nearly by half.
The Phoenix Business Journal reported Wednesday that the once Bowl Championship Series game cut jobs both late last week and early this week, including both marketing and communications positions.
The staff, which was at about 30 people before the layoffs, has now been reduced between 25 and 50 percent. Most major bowl games have a staff of between six and 15 employees.
The Fiesta Bowl lost executive director Robert Shelton in January as it recovered from a scandal that saw its former CEO, John Junker, sentenced to eight months in jail and a number of other executives resigning or being fired in 2011.
Former Waste Management executive and bowl chairman Duane Woods is serving in the position while the bowl searches for Shelton's replacement.
The Scottsdale-based group puts on both the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl in Glendale and the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl in Tempe while also organizing bids to bring college football playoff games to Glendale.
The Fiesta Bowl and University of Phoenix Stadium will host college football's championship game in 2016 and a semifinal in 2017.

With Dave McKean running close behind, Rob Ryan is by far and away my favourite artist. His signature style is Matissean paper-cut, constructing all of his artwork from individual, hand-cut silhouettes.
He's released two books previously, This Is For You and A Sky Full of Kindness, and illustrated Carol Ann Duffy's children's book The Gift. The Invisible Kingdom is very much in the same vein as his previous two. It doesn't depart from his wheelhouse, but that's no bad thing, because he's a master at it. The stories he tells are fable-like and deceptively simple, told with an understated earnestness that delicately plays the heartstrings, rather than hammering away at them. The Invisible Kingdom concerns a prince raised in the palace, isolated from both the world outside and from any kind of interaction that isn't bowing and scraping. He discovers first the 'invisible kingdom' of his imagination, and then the city that sleeps beyond his windows.
As with any Rob Ryan, it's is elegant, simple and beautifully told – both with words and images. The papercut style seems to cut through the trappings and distractions of most fiction and instead pares it down to emotion and heart, in perfect synchronicity to the story. If you've never read anything by him, I strongly recommend tracking down some of his work (although I would still suggest starting with This Is For You, which remains my favourite.) Thankfully, it also looks like these book releases are annual, so I look forward to the next in 2014.

Actually, after 2″ of rain last week, things will green up, at least briefly. I'm kind of hoping a few wild flowers will bloom, altho' it is a little late in the year for some of my favorites.
Oh, alittle buggy, but, still very pretty!!
Thanks, Funny Chick.
My son told us the fire ants swarmed at their place this weekend (since the rain) and he had to go get some stuff to kill them…he and his wife both got stung several times. Seems like everything comes out once we get a little moisture.
Oh, that's nasty!!! Glad he got rid of them!!! Yay, ants are especially attracted to water!!!
Bugs! … eewwwwwww … yucky!
The only cute bugs are lady bugs and LB bugs.
The squiggle is a snake- heh-heh- (sinister laugh).
EEEEWWWWWW!!!! I hate snakes more than I hate bugs, deathly afraid of the things … (shiver) … I'll just be standing here on top of the desk for awhile …
Sorry, CAS, but those creepy things are just part of life in the hot country. I think I hate scorpions most of all, even more than spiders and snakes. Double YUCK!!!
You can come down off the desk. I don't see any creepy crawlies right now. Heh-heh. LOL
Gotta go now, should do the shopping before it gets any hotter. Y'all have fun!!
If … you're … sure … Harriet, … okay … I'll get down now. But if you see one of those icky things (shiver), I'll be back on the desk in a heartbeat.
Sorry, I can't get this to load.
Happy Chick, this is lovely – except for those creepy crawlies…and the snake! haven't seen any rattlers yet this year, but I think the warm weather is finally starting to come. Won't be long before our property starts looking like your pick!
Beautiful pick. Fav!
Thanks ladies!
Sue, we've already had to kill a rattler in our yard…can't risk it with the pets and our grandaughter playing out there. I know they have a place in the ecology, but rattlesnake bites are so very dangerous.
In my yard:
I finlly got my big century plant picture to load. This thing is about 6′ diameter, and at least 5′ tall. Not sure how long this one has been growing, but if it ever blooms, it will die afterward.
Nite, y'all. Have to go check on my grandaughter and husband—they are painting the birdhouse they built last nite.
Nite-nite, Happy Chick!!! That sure is a big one!!!!
Hey, it IS Texas.
They do say that everything is bigger in Texas, don't they.
WOW, Harriet, I am sooooo not a fan of bugs and snakes, but I love this pick! A fave for sure! Love the pix of your century plant, too!

From: China Daily
China issued its first guidelines over the development of social independent think tanks in order to normalize the field on Thursday. Miao Lu, Secretary-General of the Center for China and Globalization (CCG), a leading non-governmental think tank in China, shares her ideas over it as follows:
First of foremost, the guidelines indicate the opportunity of social independent think tanks face right now in China as it would make brain-service agencies grow healthier and faster.
Generally, China's government-led distinctive mechanism gives it an edge over maneuver tremendous resources for specific projects but the costs of defective decision are much higher.
Thereafter, the independent social think tanks with its own separated financing, personnel and research could assist governments at all levels over their decision-makings.
Additionally, the social independent think tanks are more familiar with the civil society as they have unique intimate ties with social issues which the public are most concerned.
Comparing with governmental think tanks, the social independent agencies have advantages of innovative, competitive and flexible which make them play the role as catfish for the think tank industry.
Last, the social independent think tanks could take the secondary role on the diplomacy and facilitate the exchanges and goal fulfillment.

Top researcher sparks debate
A molecular biology professor and top researcher at a prestigious Beijing university who recently announced she has accepted a position at Princeton University has sparked repeated debate in China.
Trade war averted, but warnings of more friction ahead
Wang Huiyao, president of the Center of China and Globalization, a Chinese think tank, praised the trade agreement in a seminar on Sino-US trade cooperation held in Beijing last week. He said it was the first step in a long term strategy that will eventually open China's market to US industries, and that by establishing these friendlier trade ties now, the stage will be set for better negotiations on serious issues later.
US and China Can Work Together on Asia Pacific Trade Arrangement
As the only representative of think tank from China, CCG(Center for China and Globalization) President Wang Huiyao delivered a keynote speech and participated in the dialogue about the prospect of free trade agreements in Asia Pacific.

There are a lot of SCAM activities but they all have the same purpose – to con people out of money by using misleading or deceptive communications such as letters, emails or phone calls. Most of this activity is FRAUDULENT and, as such, CRIMINAL. Using the support of Norfolk County Council Trading Standards Services, I have compiled this page to act as an easy reference to guard anyone against becoming a victim of scam activity.
Friends Against Scams (FAS) is a scheme recently launched by National Trading Standards and supported by regional government authorities that seeks to educate, and ultimately, help people avoid being scammed. I should emphasise that FAS is just one of quite a few such initiatives.
By far the best weapon to combat scams is education and it follows that knowing what to look for is critical to your defence. The FAS has produced a very informative Guide to Scams that can be downloaded by clicking here. In general, the ways a scammer finds a route to your wallet is through the post, by telephone, via the door step and/or through email
Golden Rules:
- You can't win a lottery unless you have entered beforehand
- If a deal seems too good to be true it's probably a scam
- Never open an (email) attachment unless you are confident of its source
Of course there are many bits of advice that should be heeded that is available in the plethora of literature on the subject but for ease of reference I have listed some services below:
- To cut out junk mail, register with the Mail Preference Service or call 0207 291 3310
- To cut out unwanted telephone calls, register with the Telephone Preference Service or call 0345 070 0707
- To report Scam mail to Royal Mail, send any items you believe to be scam received by post, with a covering letter, to Freepost, Scam Mail
- If you are unsure of an offer or its source, speak to family and friends or get advice from the Citizens Advice Consumer Helpline on 03454 040506
- If you are looking to contract a trader and don't have any personal recommendations or first hand knowledge of the possible companies, have a look at the Norfolk Trusted Trader service set up by Norfolk County Council
- For details of the latest scams in the region, sign up to the Norfolk County Council Trading Standards Scam Alert system
- If you want to become a 'Friend' of the FAS scheme, visit the Friends Against Scams website and take the on-line course (45 – 60 minutes)
…Alternatively attend a Scam Awareness Presentation (free of charge) in the Hindolveston Village Hall starting at 7.15 pm on Friday 26th May 2017. Duration approximately 45 minutes plus time for questions. The Astley Bar opens shortly thereafter for a follow on Q&A session!!

Former LSU wide receiver, Super Bowl champ releases autobiography
BATON ROUGE - Former LSU wide receiver Michael Clayton joined JP on 2une In Friday to talk about his autobiography "Chasing my Rookie Year: The Michael Clayton Story".
Clayton played in 39 games for the Tigers from 2001-2003. He had 182 catches for 2,582 yards and 22 touchdowns over the course of his career. He's also the only player in LSU history to have 700 receiving yards in three straight seasons. His best year was 2003 when he led the SEC in receptions (78) and yards (1079) while finishing second in touchdowns (10) on the way to LSU's BCS National Championship.
After that stellar season, Clayton was drafted in the first round (15th overall) by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He recorded 1,193 receiving yards his rookie season, the fifth best total by a rookie in NFL history. He spent six seasons with Tampa Bay before signing with the New York Giants prior to the 2010 season.
There Clayton was a member of the 2011-2012 Super Bowl Championship team. He retired after that season, finishing his career with 223 catches for 2,955 yards and ten touchdowns.
Since announcing his retirement in 2013, Clayon has worked as a sports analyst for the Big Ten Network, CBS Tampa, and serves as motivational speaker for several non-profit organizations. You can get your hands on a copy of his book on his website.

Last year our neighborhood (and yard) was overrun with bunnies. This year there are NO bunnies. I'm kind of glad not to see any, but where did they all go? I find it vaguely creepy.
1. I failed to mention some exciting news last week. Last week Alaina had another eye appointment, as a follow up on how her glasses are working and all that. We were going to discuss patching, since at her initial exam the lazy eye had such poor vision that the doctor thought we were going to have to patch her good eye just to teach the lazy one that it did indeed need to see. Well, the doctor was surprised and delighted to find that we may not have to patch at all. Even the bad eye has been almost completely corrected with glasses, which means it IS responding without force. This is great news! Alaina was kind of looking forward to the patches (so she and her pal Macy could be Patch Buddies), but I was not. It sounded like a terribly frustrating experience. We go back at the end of June just to make sure, but it looks like glasses are all she'll need. Thank you Lord!
2. Last Saturday Bria began walking. She had been taking steps for a few weeks, but something seemed to click last Saturday and now all she does is walk. I've hardly seen her play with toys all week; she just wants to walk. She'll pick a toy up and carry it around, but she wants to be doing laps at all times. And if I let her out of the living room then all she wants to do is walk and carry things she shouldn't carry and touch things she shouldn't touch. It's probably time for me to dig out some shoes for her, eh?
3. This week we ran an errand to King Soopers. I haven't been there in awhile, since they opened the Walmart Neighborhood Market just down the street, but I knew they had something on sale that I wanted, and I get tired of going to Walmart. Plus they have Car Carts, which the girls love. Bria got to ride in the car for the first time in her little life. She loved it. She spent most of the time leaning out the window (thank you seat belt!) or hanging her legs out the window. It was a great source of entertainment to many of the other shoppers (all who were elderly). Little things like that remind me that she won't be a baby forever.
Hope you stay warm on Mother's Day! (Because it looks like we'll get three inches of snow here. Nothing says Happy Mother's Day like having your kids cooped up inside with you. ) :)

Consumer Protections / Workers' Rights
This is a collaborative knowledge base; feel free to propose edits/additions that you believe are important for others to know. Contributions will be reviewed and approved based on quality and accuracy.

- 2 Laws Proposed by Congress

How You Can Resist[edit]
- Call your Senator by dialing tel:844-6-RESIST and tell them to support the consumer protections and workers' rights legislation below.
- Find out when your Senators and US Representative are holding town halls and other Upcoming Events/Opportunities. Show up and tell them to support consumer protections and workers' rights legislation below.
- Submit a comment to the FCC, as led by Ajit Pai, to protect net neutrality now that the FCC has voted to overturn Open Internet rules.
- Find organizations to get involved in here and here, and find more information and opportunities for online activism here.
Laws Proposed by Congress[edit]
Legislative Actions[edit]
Legislation that Supports Equity and Justice
- S. 337 The FAMILY Act is a bill that entitles every individual to a family and medical leave insurance benefit nationwide, currently it is limited only to states with enacted legislation. The bill will grant up to 60 days of paid leave and the language is gender neutral.[1]
- H.R. 179 / S. 175 The Miners Protections Act of 2017 is legislation that would ensure that the federal government and coal operators honor their obligation of lifetime pensions and health benefits to retired miners and their families.
Harmful Legislation
- H.J. Res. 41 repeals a regulation by the SEC as part of the Dodd-Frank Act, requiring energy companies to disclose payments made to foreign governments.[2]
- HR 785 National Right to Work Act would reduce Union resources from which to collective bargain for both members and nonmembers.
- HR 1031 targets the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and Dodd-Frank by removing consumer protections and regulations.
See also the State and Local Pages for state-by-state legislative tracking.
Attempted Undermining of Unions[edit]
- By law, unions are required to collectively bargain on behalf of both member and nonmember workers. Right to Work laws allow a state to not allow unions to collect fees from nonmembers to reduce contributions to help cover the costs of bargaining.[3]
- Without the resources to support both members and nonmembers, union impact falls and a consequence is reduced wages in Right to Work states compared to states without the law.[4]
- Right to Work laws have nothing to do with the right to have a job or be provided employment. Right to Work laws have nothing to do with whether people can be forced to join a union to contribute to a political cause they do not support; that is already illegal.[5]
- Go to your State and Local Pages to see if your state is trying pass a Right to Work law.
Wage Theft[edit]
There is a core set of wage and workplace protections that help define America's Workplace:[6]
- The right to be paid at least the minimum wage
- The right to be paid for overtime hours
- The right to take meal breaks
- The right to access workers' compensation when injured
- The right to advocate for better working conditions
Preemptive Wage Theft[edit]
After cities such as Seattle and San Francisco passed laws that require employers to schedule shifts weeks in advance, pay workers when their hours are cut, and ensure that on-call employees are paid even if they don't end up coming in, state governments are preemptively passing legislation that would block cities from regulating workers' schedules.[7]
- A bill pending in the Georgia Senate would block local governments from requiring employers to pay workers when their schedules change at the last minute.[8]
- Minnesota and New Mexico (and possibly other states) are trying to block cities from regulating how workers are scheduled. Alabama, Arizona, Indiana, Kansas and Michigan already have similar laws).[9]
Wage Inequality[edit]
Women in the Workplace[edit]
Families depend on women's wages more than ever, but a woman working full-time, year round is typically paid less than a man working full time, year-round. The Wage Gap for Women negatively affects women nationally.[10]
Workers with Disabilities[edit]
There is a direct benefit to expanding employment opportunities for people with disabilities. There are employers that are projected to face labor shortages as the baby-boom generation retires,[11], and unemployed people with disabilities could help fill those needs. For people with disabilities, employment has not just economic value but also important social and psychological value.[12]
Overtime Pay Protections[edit]
- An Obama-administration regulation required employers to pay workers earning $47,476 or less time-and-a-half overtime pay for the overtime hours they worked. In November, a judge struck it down, keeping the amount at $23,660 or less to earn time-and-a-half overtime pay.[13]
- Trump has indicated that he might increase the amount of money you have to earn less than in order for your employer to be required to pay you overtime, but not to what Obama had suggested (to roughly keep pace with inflation). One-third of salaried employees would have been eligible for overtime with the $913 threshold that Obama had created.[14]
Instances of Wage Theft[edit]
According to a study performed by the National Employment Law Project on 4,387 low-wage workers, these rights are being denied to a significant number of US workers:
- Over 25% of respondents worked more than 40 hours during the previous week.[15]
- Among workers who had overtime violations, on average 11 hours of overtime were underpaid or completely unpaid.[16]
- 86% of respondents worked enough consecutive hours to be legally entitled to at least one meal break during the previous week. More than two-thirds (69%) received no break at all, had their break shortened, were interrupted by their employer, or worked during the break—all of which constitutes a violation of meal break law.[17]
Minimum Wage[edit]
- Trump has sent mixed messages regarding the federal minimum wage, at one point calling for eliminating the federal minimum wage and at another point supported raising the federal minimum wage to $10.[18] Trump's attitudes regarding the minimum wage are of particular concern for people with disabilities, who are currently allowed to be paid a sub-minimum wage.[19]
- 19 states began 2017 with higher minimum wages:[20]
- Minimum wage legislation can also be raised in your state. Go to State and Local Pages to see what your state is doing.

- 26% of workers were paid less than the legally required minimum wage in the previous work week.[21]
- 60% of workers were underpaid by more than $1 per hour.[22]
- Foreign-born Latino/a workers had the highest minimum wage violation rates of any racial/ethnic group.[23]
- African-American workers had a minimum wage violation rate triple that of their white counterparts.[24]
- Women were significantly more likely than men to experience minimum wage violations, and foreign-born workers were nearly twice as likely as their US-born counterparts to have a minimum wage violation.[25]
Workplace Protections Under Attack[edit]
The Labor Department's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires companies to report any workplace injuries or illnesses.
Last December the agency extended the window where a company can be punished for failing to make these reports to five years.[26] The limit was extended in response to a decision of the US Court of Appeals in DC, where a majority realized that OSHA was not permitted to force a continued record-keeping obligation on employers. A clarification was needed and the new 5-year limit was imposed.[27] On March 22nd, 2017 the Senate voted to block the Obama-era rule and send the bill to President Trump, who is expected to sign it.[28]
Removal of Penalties for Wage or Safety Violations[edit]
An Obama Administration regulation called the Fair Pay and Safe Workplaces rule encouraged federal contractors to follow labor laws by punishing contractors with bad records of violating wage and safety laws. The penalty would be losing their government contracts if they did not follow the rules.[29]
The Fair Pay and Safe Workplaces rule was deemed necessary after it was found that almost 30% of the top violators of federal wage and safety laws are also current federal contractors (as of 2013).[30]
- 18 federal contractors were recipients of the largest 100 penalties issued by OSHA between 2007 and 2012. Almost half of the total initial penalty dollars for OSHA violations were against federal contractors (in 2012).[31]
- 42 American workers died as a result of OSHA violations by federal contractors in 2012.[32]
- 32 federal contractors received back wage assessments among the largest 100 issued by the Department of Labor between 2007 and 2012.[33]
- 35 of these companies violated both wage and safety laws.[34]
- 49 federal contractors responsible for large violations of federal labor laws were cited for 1,776 separate violations of these laws and paid $196 million in penalties and assessments. In fiscal year 2012, these same companies were awarded $81 billion in taxpayer dollars.[35]
On March 27, President Trump signed a bill to repeal this regulation without any legislation for replacement.[36]
Cuts to Department of Labor in House and Senate budget[edit]
- The budget passed by the House and Senate cuts $710 million from the Department of Labor.[37]
- Job Corps, a program that provides workplace training for disadvantaged youth, would close centers that "do a poor job educating and preparing students" for the labor force, and will see a $15 million increase.[38]
- Legal Services Corporation provides low-income workers the ability to receive legal assistance to ensure they have rights on the job and to ensure that they receive the types of public benefits they are entitled to for living in poverty. This will not be cut.[39]
The Open Internet[edit]
The FCC has set up what it calls Open Internet rules to protect a consumer's ability to go where they want, when they want, online. Internet service providers (like Comcast, Verizon or Time Warner) cannot:
- Block or slow speeds on purpose
- Create special "fast lanes" that discriminate against particular kinds of content
- Engage in other practices that build walls in exchange for tolls
These rules are often referred to as "Net Neutrality" [40].
Network Neutrality[edit]
Network neutrality is the idea that your cellular, cable, and phone internet connections should treat all websites and services the same. Big companies like AT&T, Verizon, and Comcast want to treat them differently so they can charge you more depending on what sites and services you use.[41]
How is the Open Internet protected?[42]
- Blocking: Internet providers may not block access to legal content, applications, or services, or non-harmful devices.
- Throttling: Internet providers may not deliberately slow down legal internet traffic.
- Paid prioritization: Internet providers may not favor one type of internet traffic over other types of traffic in exchange for compensation of any kind.
FCC Under Trump[edit]
End of Net Neutrality[edit]
On May 18, the FCC voted to begin replacing the Open Internet order/Net Neutrality rules. The Federal Communications Commission has officially begun undoing and replacing net neutrality rules after voting 2-1, along political party lines. FCC Head Ajit Pai, a Trump appointee, considers the vote as a step to end regulation on providers. Those in favor of net neutrality argue that this vote could lead to select few powerful Internet service providers taking control of the Internet, while consumers and start-up online companies pay the price [43].
This passage starts a three-month public comment period. Initial comments must be filed within 60 days, July 17, with another 30 days for replies by August 16 [44]. Over 1,000 Internet start-ups, investors, and entrepreneurs have signed an open letter to Pai expressing their concern about overturning net neutrality.

Nathan Cleverly, after a two and a half year reign as the WBO light-heavyweight champions, was stopped by the hard-hitting Russian Sergey Kovalev.
The writing was perhaps on the wall when Cleverly, attempting to secure a fight against a top name American, decided to put everything on the line against a fighter who had won all 22 of his fights and 19 by knockout.
With the Cardiff crowd cheering their man into the ring, Cleverly never really got into the fight with the Russian making an impressive start and dominating from the first bell. Kovalev used his strength and power to hunt Cleverly down and dropped him with a powerful punch in round three.
Cleverly beat the count but was hit by a further barrage of bruising punches, with the round drawing to a close it looked as if the referee had stopped the fight but it appeared the bell had sounded.
Coming out for round four Kovalev was straight onto the attack and after a further barrage of blows the referee stepped in to stop the fight, Kovalev had deservedly taken the WBO light-heavyweight crown from Cleverly.

Engaging with new and Divers brands as well as people.in the Traveling from one location to another.
Lack of communication, and at times for months on end there wouldn't be any work assignments.
Advice to Management
If I could say one thing to Advantage's management would be, consistency in a schedule brings happy employees, thus increasing sales for their clients.
I have been working at Advantage Solutions part-time (Less than a year)
Neat experience setting up a mini restaurant and serving people. Coworkers are upbeat and helpful. The manager for this location is excellent, very helpful and respected.
There just aren't many hours to be had, so it really is a great extra job, but that's it. There is not a set schedule, but the schedule is done 2 weeks in advance so you have plenty of time to plan around it.
I have been working at Advantage Solutions full-time (More than a year)
This is a solid company who is a giant eating up the competition. It is a job you can retire at if you start in the position you want. Many freebies from the industry come along with the job. Not very strict as long as you get your work done.
Low pay for heavy workloads and very slow advancement. Favortisim is a huge factor in this company. You will not be noticed unless you show off in front of management.
Advice to Management
Notice the hard workers and pay them accordingly.

"Pure Relaxation"
5th visit. Never disappoints. Great staff and beautiful pools. Already rebooked for 6th visit ! Expensive but all good of the best quality and rooms excellent. Set on the hill 10 mins from Benidorm ( in the opposite direction ) thirty mins from Alicante Airport
"My 3rd stay"
I have been coming here for 3 years now, I stay for 4 days, the hotel is stunning, relaxing & Clean. We had a small garden with our room this year, it was lovely. The grounds are immaculate. The smells around the hotel are devine. Breakfast was superb as usual. Had a Thai meal in Koh Samui, delicious, & the staff are very attentive. Can't wait for next year, will never get bored of Asia Gardens. The staff on reception are very helpful & friendly. I just wish the Zen pool was adult only, Its not very 'Zen' with kids screaming and jumping in & out making a racket, it was a shame as the pool is beautiful & heated. We kept away, we wanted piece & quiet.
"Relaxing and delightful "
Very welcoming and helpful staff who all spoke excellent English. Room was spotlessly clean, well maintained throughout our 8 day visit and a good size. Very comfortable bed with very good linen. The joy of this hotel is the gardens, which are spectacular; photos only tell some of the story. The heated pool was a bonus and beautifully presented. Good, generous breakfasts too. Alpha plus.
"Still love this place despite a few niggles"
I've just returned from my latest visit to the Asia Gardens and once again I had a lovely 10 day stay, despite a few issues. The ambience was as calm as ever, with fantastic, friendly & efficient staff on hand for whatever you may need. The pools & gardens were as beautiful as always and the room was lovely (eventually). Benidorm is just 10 minutes in a taxi if you're looking for some entertainment but far far away if you want to drift away & relax. However there were a couple of issues. Once again there was zero recognition for returning guests, despite having stayed here 2 or 3 times a year over the last few years - I was asked several times if this was my 1st visit, even by the surly guy who checked me in, so it doesn't appear the computer system recognises returning guests. Tip for the management - why not inform guests before arrival that you are now required to show your passport just to get past the front gate (new recent requirement apparently, despite them having my name on their list & the room prepaid !). It's not a great start to a holiday having to get out of the car, get cases out of the car boot & have to start unpacking on the side of the street, just to get through the gate - not very 5 star!! If I'd been made aware of this requirement beforehand, I'd have made sure my passport was to hand. The surly receptionist just said "that's the rules", no apology, understanding or empathy. My other issue related to the room. I'd booked, a high floor sea view, as I've always had before. This time I was placed in a middle floor very dark room with a pagoda at the end of the balcony - (aesthetically nice) - with a sea view if you stood at the end. However, this "feature" just made the whole room/balcony very very depressing & dark with no sea view from the actual room. After day 3, I realised it was making me a bit miserable so I asked to see some other rooms. I was shown a nice room on the top floor, similar to the ones I'd always stayed in before. I was informed this was a superior sea view room (although it was identical to the last room apart from an extra single bed that had been squeezed into the room, although this wasn't required as there were just 2 off us), and carried a supplement of €100 p/night. I asked if there was anything they could do on this rate & they granted me a 10% discount to €90 a night extra. I had already paid €300 p/night for my 9 day stay so I felt this was quite OTT. I quickly checked the booking site I use & the differential was €70 p/night on there so basically the hotel wanted to charge me more than the published price differential & that was to an unhappy guest, already paying a hefty nightly rate for a fairly long stay. At this point I asked to see the duty manager so I could express my disappointment- the manager never appeared (too arrogant to speak to us lowly guests'') but they did reduce the "upgrade" charge to €40 p/night. I don't expect things for free but once again, no making the customer feel special or valued. So to summarise, a beautiful hotel that smells divine, lovely attentive staff & a great Thai restaurant, all slightly letting itself down by the leadership team it seems. I'm back in July for another stay - I'll have my passport to hand 😊

I am Jim Bonham - President and Executive Director of the "Lighthouse Food Farm".
We grow fresh fruits and vegetables to donate to help feed hungry Americans. All fruits and vegetables are organically grown. We raise a spring crop of the normal spring vegetables and during the winter we grow greens like Turnip Greens, Collards, Curly Mustard and Kale. We donate the fresh fruits and vegetables to soup kitchens, food banks, food shelves and to people that have fallen through the cracks of our system.
