One lesson is abundantly clear in "The Apprentice," the new reality show that positions Donald Trump as a demigod. Money -- even The Donald's billions of dollars -- can't buy good hair. With his seedy combover, which perches on his forehead like a mohair racoon, the world-famous real estate baron is living proof that conspicuous consumption does not necessarily include a personal Fab Five.

There is no way that the sign by the dumpster was an "accident".

Both are showing signs of cracking, but in different ways. Kwame is taking things in stride, but is relying too much on others (particularly, Trump employees) to bail him out. Most of his mistakes could have been avoided by proper planning.

Bill is showing signs of being in a pressure cooker, but he's actively involved in the resolution of the issue, rather than letting others solve things for him.

It'll be interesting to see Trump's take on these different management styles.

"he's actively involved in the resolution of the issue"


I think that makes a better manager.

YOu may delegate, but when there is problem, he should be involved to make sure it gets solved.

Okay here you go. Spoilers.
Run your mouse over the line just below this.

Kwame delegated Jessica's and Nick's breakfast to Omarosa. She delegated to Troy. No one confirmed with catering. No breakfast. GM of casino and manager of catering were pissed. For Bill, signs for major advertiser sponsor were in the dumpster. Bill running around like chicken without head. Heidi put in charge of Meet and Greet for Kwame's team. Staff told Troy that there would be over 200 people there. Heidi was told only 50. Staff at casino is pissed. Both Kwame and Bill are choking. Omarosa is not being a team player.

And now, back to our show... lol

I'd like to ask everyone here for future posts on threads like this when a poster wants to discuss a significant development ( or the winner ), please preface their post with;

"Spoiler Alert".

It does help our friends on the West Coast, where the show hasn't aired yet. Thank you.

Hope this works. lol
