My Singapore Concierge

A fellow player in Blogshares has a business, and shared some information with me about it. I decided to provide it to you, because it sounds like a legitimate thing you may benefit from:

Concierge Service: what does it mean?

This service is a perk the employer can offer the employee; and it enhances the company image. The traveling employee will be a little more rested and productive. I used to travel on business a lot before entering the seminary, and it can be exhausting. If I ever had to travel to Gonder, Ethiopia, I'd sure benefit from this kind of service!

To quote "Froggie": "The employee increases the on the job effectiveness, efficiency, productivity, and loyalty to their firm. They are more content with their balance, have happier and healthier home lives and relationships, decreased stress, and a stronger performance desire. The employee knows that their company is aware of the difficulties and strains of meeting the balance of both personal and professional lifestyles. Their company is interested, is concerned, and is meeting the challenge."

Again, as Froggie relates:

Indra Brooks, Vice President of the International Concierge and Errand Industry believes, "The benefits of a concierge service accrue not just to the employees, but to the employer as well. In fact, evidence suggests that concierge services contribute to increased worker productivity, improved morale, and a hiring advantage in a tight job market. For an employer hiring competent people who want to stay, you need to offer something more than a 401(k) and health and dental. Those things are now standard, so what can you offer your employees above and beyond that to show them this is the place they want to work? A concierge service is an inexpensive way to do that."

News about Gonder

I just found a site with some stories about Gonder.

For example, this story about the Ark of the Covenant, which was part of divine worship for Israel for many centuries until it disappeared: there have been claims for many years that it actually is in a church in Ethiopia. Fascinating!

Check it out here, and search for "Gonder."

Links for Chips Requests here

As offered in the Blogshares game, I am offering to link your blog from this blog in return for chips. (I will also link other blogs that advance your business interests for the same price.)

It works like this:

1. You request your link via the comments here or in the game, your choice.
2. I'll check out your blog, and decide if it qualifies as a blog for blogshares purpose.
3. I'll also check to see that your is not excessively controversial. By that I mean, not obscene, offensive, hateful, or advocating political causes that, were I to link to them, would cause me headaches. Not making any judgments, just not worth it to me.
4 After that, I'll link you and I'll let you know. You have to give me your Blogshares name so I contact you via the game. If you prefer, you can place your order in the game where I'm simply Martin Fox.
5. You send payment once I've linked you.

Finally, I reserve the right to refuse any link that might hurt my own business interests; and to cancel this offer at any time. But since you don't pay a single chip till I deliver, there's no risk to you!

Sound fair?

The initial price is 1000 chips per link. But that is an introductory rate only, so act fast!
