Anti Social Conference Call Behaviour Orders – ASCCBO
Posted by Maria.Serna in News on 3rd March 2010
We have started a campaign to Ban Conference Callers for their Anti Social Behaviour…
Tesco is banning people to go shopping in their pyjamas, so why wouldn’t we ban people for attending conference calls half sleeping and yawning all the way through!
So yes, you can attend a Powwownow in your PJ’s – Just make sure you’ve had your coffee first!
Does there have to be a green tax on everything?
Posted by Powwownowgreen in Opinions on 3rd December 2009
That’s how it seems sometimes. If I want to exercise my right as a purchaser and buy the green/ethical/morally upright option, I have to pay extra. Someone somewhere is taxing me for my beliefs.
Maybe I’m being too sensitive about this. After all, if I go into my local supermarket, I’m presented with normal coffee or fair trade coffee. I accept that fair trade coffee will be more expensive, but I don’t mind buying it because (a) I can afford the extra few pennies and (b) a decent price is paid to the farmer. In short, it makes me feel good. I like to think that Western consumers like me are doing our bit to divert wealth from multinational companies to small producers.
The real cost of air travel
Posted by Powwownowteam in Opinions on 12th November 2009
Here at Powwownow, we don’t mind a bit of honest competition. But recent advertising from the people at Flybe.com seemed a little less than truthful. So we felt we ought to take a little direct action with our own ad, published today in the London Metro.
OK, so it’s a little cheeky of us to take their ad and throw it back at them. But we felt there was something important missing in their claim that face to face meetings – and particularly face-to-face meetings that involve air travel – are ‘better’ than conference calling.
