Solving The BIG Problems Of The World

Image
Whatever your view on software companies is, wherever your 'loyalty' lies, however you buy your gadgets I believe we can all recognise that stepping up and trying to solve the BIG problems of the world takes us above the pettiness, away from the lawyers and into a realm of humanity. Introducing the Endangered Languages Project - because it is what makes you YOU, the THEM and me ME. ( originally shared by glyn moody on Google+)

United Breaks Guitars

Image
From Adam's JokesList: A musician named Dave Carroll recently had difficulty with United Airlines. United apparently damaged his treasured Taylor guitar ($3500) during a flight. Dave spent over 9 months trying to get United to pay for damages caused by baggage handlers to his custom Taylor guitar. During his final exchange with the United Customer Relations Manager, he stated that he was left with no choice other than to create a music video for youtube exposing their lack of cooperation. The Manager responded: "Good luck with that one, pal." So he posted a retaliatory video on youtube. The video has since received over 6 12 million hits. United Airlines contacted the musician and attempted settlement in exchange for pulling the video. Naturally his response was: "Good luck with that one, pal." Taylor Guitars sent the musician 2 new custom guitars in appreciation for the product recognition from the video that has led to a sharp increase in orders.
