So this image in my head of the Friar on a stool under a single spotlight, tuxedo tie undone, double shot in one hand and the mic in the other crooning "set 'em up Joe" pleases me probably more than it should.

And right at the end, he lights a cig, takes a long drag, and let's it out slow as the spotlight fades to black. Tell me you wouldn't pay to see it.

oh uh, the Frair just tossed the tie and his tux jacket on the stage and started undoing shirt buttons. I think the bartender should have cut him off after that first double.

BBC News - Call centre menu options catalogued by frustrated man - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news...
rehavet, MarcoScud, Jennifer Dittrich and 9 other people liked this
"Retired IT manager Nigel Clarke, from Kent in the UK, has launched a website listing the call centre menu sequences for accessing thousands of services. He started the project after growing frustrated about the number of options and amount of recorded information on call centre menus. Mr Clarke discovered that some automated menus have nearly 80 options. It can take over four minutes to get to the service required if the caller listens to each stage in full, he said. As an example, speaking to an adviser at HM Revenue and Customs only required pressing four buttons but it could take six minutes to get through each menu level, Mr Clarke said. HMRC said it was working on improvements to the service. "HMRC is looking at ways to improve its interactive voice responses and is getting ready for the introduction of new speech recognition technology," said a spokesman. "This technology will react to what the caller says instead of asking them to select an option by pushing a button on their phone. HMRC plan to introduce these improvements later this year.""

80 options??!
- Headless Gnad Kicker
I just keep pressing 0 or # until I get a person. I've found that even if it says "I don't understand that option." after the 3rd time I usually get sent to an operator. And without fail, every time I use the menu, I wind up speaking to a person who says I pressed the wrong button, then they transfer me to the same department.
- Anika
I do the same thing, Anika.
- Lisa | #TeamMonique
Ah the simple pleasures of modern life...
- Son of Groucho
Does this mean when all the police stations are closed, we will face the same situation, 80 options? "Are you sure you want to report a crime? If you pressed option #x you may be speaking to the wrong person, please confirm you want to proceed with the call" By which time, you're probably dead! :-(
- Halil
The menu for my local station is ridiculous. I've found it much easier to just drive over there.

How to make more money. Label your product "For Migraines". Excedrin charges $2 more per bottle of their Migraine pain relief pills vs their "Extra Strength" pills even though they are the EXACT SAME active ingredients and strength.
John (bird whisperer), Zulema ❧ spicy cocoa tart, WoH: Professor MOTHRA and 7 other people liked this
My understanding was that the large difference was in the dosing directions - Excedrine MIgraine says explicitly that you're not supposed to take more than one dose in a 24 hour period of time (mostly so people see a physician if they need to.) Not that people often read the directions.

And, of course, money money money money money.

Active ingredients doesn't equal same product. We sell two products with the same active ingredients but one has a surfactant which helps with leaf stick. The other has one the accelerates the penetration. That's not registered cause its not part of the Mode Of Action. The migraine version may have other ingredients not required for listing that could effect translocation
- Johnny
from iPhone
Johnny, medications, at least in the US, are required to list all ingredients and active ingredients especially. If an ingredient has anything to do with the efficacy of a medication it needs to be listed. Since all of the ingredients are the same they are charging more money for the same medication until proven otherwise.
- Scoble, Alex Scoble
Does one have caffeine and one not?
- Headless Gnad Kicker
Both have caffeine and both are a mix of aspirin and acetaminophen.
- Scoble, Alex Scoble
I guess they're hoping people with migraines will read the product name and not the ingredient list and happily pay the extra $2!
- Headless Gnad Kicker
In general, take a product and make it sound especially for your situation. It makes you feel like someone made a product just for your needs, and you pay more. Or make them just slightly different, so that you'll want all of them: a lime squeezer and a lemon squeezer and also an orange squeezer.

Okay. Marginhancers branding, web dev and photo/video. Now for migraines.
- Mary B: #TeamMonique
Actually, niche-ing a product does build exclusivity. That tells folks who it's for and will increase sales.
- Mary B: #TeamMonique
Re Excedrin: if you really have migraines, Excedrin won't begin to help. Assuming you can get scripts, Vicodin generic is about five bucks for a 55-gallon drum. Course, if you REALLY have migraines, Vicodin just makes them worse after a while.
