Mike and Lenny: Bachelor Auction


I desperately want Lenny to orchestrate a most eligible bachelor auction for Mike. They could have it at the MacEwan caf. I can just see it now: all the attractive MacEwan Business School ladies feverishly bidding, Lenny cackling in the background…

The twist at the end of the episode would be that Lenny gets more bids than Mike. He and Mike would have a pushup contest, and Lenny would win, taking the School of Business by storm!

This scene could be concluded a la Chariots of Fire, with Mike and Lenny fleeing like rock stars from hordes of adoring Grant MacEwan students. It would be epic.

What do you think the next episode of Mike & Lenny should be?

Ever heard of Flight of the Conchords?  Like that, it needs to be smiliar, but still maintaing the personalities of Mike & Lenny.  Oh yah, it needs to be like Season One of Flight of the Conchords.

HOMEMADE SONGS WITH CHEESY MUSIC VIDEOS!!!!

Bookstore


Who thinks that the Bookstore here on MacEwan Campas runs an ethical business?

Can we see the financials?  Where do the profits go… why do we always need the NEWEST textbook version?

The Ethics of Business


The Office: Youtube Video - The Office - ‘Business Ethics’ in 60 Seconds


Is business ethics an oxymoron?

Because we are in Alberta, lets look at the Alberta Oil Sands:

I have already reported on this at my personal blog myexplosion.net.

Alberta’s Oil Sands are the source of much debate. One must ask themselves several questions. Should we sacrifice our environment for economic gains now? Will the money earned now be worth more later? Who should be responsable for developing the refining technologies.

The Alberta government recently reduced royalties by 1.4 billion. You can read about that in the Financial Post article “Alberta takes $1.5B hit in slashing royalty rates” by Carrie Tait and Claudia Cattaneo; published: Tuesday, March 03, 2009.

The Alberta Government is enjoying the investment brought into the province. You can read all about it on their website Alberta’s Oil Sands.

So.. is the term Business Ethics and Oxymoron?   In Alberta, our own government wants the oilsands to develop even further.  However, who is responsable for watching the Ethics issues if the government is so “pro-oil”?

The businesses operating in the oil sands react to incentives like the one mentioned above.. so unless their is an incentive to be ethical, yes… the term is an oxymoron.
