personally i dont think the problem is that big corporation are huge humanless operations that dont care about people. i think that the promblem is that people actually think that(im guilty of that too)
i work for a relatively big company in Canada
Famous Players Theathres .
alot of people think our company is evil(13.95 Can per movie tix), and think that all who work there and just greedy dumb people.
but to all of us in our one establishment its like a second familly, these are the people we spend a huge chunk of our lives, and personnaly we really do believe that we try to give one of the best theathre experienves.
but ill agree that even i say that *insert evil company* is evil and greedy, because we rarely have a person that symbolises what that company does, believes in and cares about.
this is a reason why alot of people like Wendys (good old Dave), and those guys that put on those cheap, adorable commercials on local tv (my current fav is The Floor King)
So while people still do and shop for the same things as they did 60 years ago, the feeling of interaction and place in a community is being lost.
ack ive written some much now i think i may have jacked the convo.
