Saying too much in the boardroom is always a mistake. Be concise. Be surgical. Stay out of other people's fights.

Summer rerally blew it. The MENSA guy was about to be fired and Summer had to open her mouth. Very stupid. I like the blonde manager was the winning team. The black girl earily reminds me of Amorosa.

Still another 25 minutes away from it airing in our time zone; looking semi-forward to it. The Apprentice UK season 2 just started last week; again, still impressed with their production quality and setup.

First task was a trip with 500 pounds to the green grocer and then a free booth at a local veg market. Both teams had interesting approaches, one was against the plan they agreed to the night before, and in the end, they paid for it.

I think that both teams discounted their most valuable asset - business education and experience. Only one team styled one of their members as a business consultant, while the rest focused on upgrades on membership. Really what they should have focused on was that experience and offered a one day business clinic for those who upgraded their memberships. One person on closing the upgrade, one floater to get the big box moms who shop for their families and aren't interested in business, and the rest to focus on those who want to improve their businesses.

That'd get me in the door, that'd likely get an upgraded membership from me, and I would have gotten real value out of that upgrade, even if their advice was junk. Someone to bounce ideas off of is worth a hundred dollar price tag.

The giveaway of bags? Useless. Most Sam's Clubs already offer these bags for upgrades, and they just handed them out. Synergy actually used their blimp to advertise something other than an image ad, but both teams were failures in my opinion. 40 - 43 memberships? Blind luck determined which team would win, not business sense.

And manicures and massages? Hello? If you're looking for business folks, they're not likely to waste time doing that when they could be making money. Again, totally aimed at the big box moms.

The only question in my mind is what day of the week they did this; a Saturday? Then they made the right decision. A weekday? A waste of space.

So far, I'm unimpressed with either team. Some footwork would have made a real difference vs the phone/blimp reliance. Why am I a member of Sam's Club? Because someone from Sam's Club walked into my business, waited until I wasn't busy, and made a reasonably professional sales pitch.

Oh, and the liberals must have been oh so pleased to support Walmart. :) Good job, Trump, and to Sam's Club, for getting together and supporting one of the good guys.

Probably a dead thread, but I don't want to start a new one.

I think the teams are weak this season. Brent is not good, but he knows what he is there for. Pepi and Stacy seemed to act like back-biting college students: "Let's all gang up on Brent! No one likes him!"

It's a 15-week job interview. Seems like some folks don't even try to make a good impression. Brent knows enough to make the effort.

I'll add more after Monday's show. There's one player it would be fun to feed to the sharks - that is if any shark is able to wrap its jaws around him.
