because there would not be a lot of people there yet, but it would still be a little busy. I found my prediction to be true as I drove up to the store, there was only a handful of cars. As I walked up to the doors of the store, I noticed the sticker that tells what credit cards they accepted. Surprisingly, they accepted most type’s credit cards. (This is surprising to me because there are some places that do not accept American Express or Discover.) However, I did assume that they would accept some credit cards. This aspect of the store applies to the infrastructure section of the barrel model. These credit cards are used as a form of money for the store. This would make sense because the store is part of a postindustrial society that has a market exchange economy. So, this part of their culture is exactly the same as the culture I actively participate in. As I walked in the store I noticed that I was walking in between two checkout kiosks. This was odd because I would think they would be situated at a slightly larger distance away from the door. If it were to get busy in there it would be hard to navigate customers in and out of the store. However, it is important for me to realize that they might not get really busy like most superstores. There was a man and woman working up front, they were busy stocking produce. They did not look up at me. They did not greet me. If I would have had an ethnocentric mindset at the time, then I might have considered them rude. However, I…

Characterization of Toby If asked, most people would describe getting a ticket as, for instance a speed ticket; a ticket you got for driving too fast. Tickets are given to us by our higher authorities if we do not follow the law. However, for Toby Heckler, that is not the case. Toby is a socially handicapped male, with a rather childish appearance. (Page 37, ‘’On the yellow paper Toby had printed in red ink ‘PRAKING MISTEAK’ and signed his name ‘TOBY’ in a childish-looking hand.’’) The fact that…

During my final semester in graphic design class, I created the design for a cat in a shirt pocket. Although it was for a class project, I instantly knew I wanted to offer my shirt design to others by making an online store. I named it Poco Pets and have been dreaming up, drawing, and planning it for the past year. Now I have come to Kickstarter to make the shirts a reality. Poco Pets shirts are pocketed tees with a variety of lovable pets chilling in the pockets. Each shirt is…

there mottled black and brown and yellow, responded with a less-than-toothy grin. His hair was the same way as Edie, blond-turned-brown with dirt and grease, hacked away like someone had went at them with an axe. “Sure, why not?” he asked, tilting his head to the side like a dog. They both smelled atrocious. Edie started to trot off, the boy following, and Birdie and Albert trailed behind. They weaved through foot traffic for a couple of blocks when they found an especially thick crowd of…

an equally efficient and accurate search engine akin to Google, Google would likely limits its push of search into the English market. Rather, Google, and firms in a similar situation, look for markets that lack established rivals and allow easier entry into the market. This similarly ties in with threats to new entrants. Countries that have high barriers to entry, be it well-established firms/rivals, high tariffs on imports/exports, increased scrutiny of international firms, etc. dissuade new…
