percentage of filing unemployment benefit
話說，12月份的申請失業補助金的人數終於下降....高興不到1個月。申請失業補助金的人數又攀升到40萬以上.....看樣子，離真正要看到經濟復甦署光的日子還有一段路呢!! Obama 你的經濟政策呢?!
deflation, inflation which one is worse?
物價不斷的飆漲，米、小麥、油價，幾乎所有的民生必需品都一一看漲 (已經不是 "悄悄"在漲了)
今年的光是泡麵就漲了兩次，食用油 (因為本人不太煮菜，不是很清楚漲的次數，不過，相信食用油價錢的漲幅絕對不輸給泡麵) 奶粉、乳製品等也一同共襄盛舉的漲。物價不斷的攀升所會造成最明顯也最迅速會反映的結果就是---貨幣的流量變小，民眾花錢變保守，企業低價速銷 (最後導致售價低於成本)，這樣的情形就是一個經濟學常聽到的字「通貨緊縮」(deflation)所在形容的。如果放任不管的話，經濟最終就是變成一灘死水~~~
各國央行為了挽救經濟，均將短期利率壓低至零 (或近零) 水準，但是這樣的處理，倘若處理不當，他的結果有可能就是轉變成不可逆轉的通膨(inflation)壓力。
通膨、通縮 不管是哪一個過多時，都會對經濟帶來極大的衝擊。要如何在兩者之間取得平衡，正是現在各國政府要煩惱的難題。

The WORST 5 star hotel I have ever stayed----Pullman Bangkok King Power
Days before our 11-day suntan honeymoon trip, I told myself, I SO have to write something about this trip~~~ especially about the awful service attitude and inefficiency of PULLMAN, this "FIVE STAR" hotel.
We chose to spend our first 4 days holiday in 「Pullman Bangkok King Power」. You may notice 「King Power」 this name, CORRECT!! this hotel is associated company of King Power and just located next to the so-called biggest DFS in the South East Asia-- King Power!!
1, Service Attitude: Just within 10-15 mins checkin, we had 「eye wild shut」by their receptionists' 「EFFICIENT」and 「UNIQUE」 service attitude . Why would I say so?! During the 10-15 mins checkin neither of the two receptionists looked up to talk with us, they just HAD FUN with their paper form or keyboard, doing the muttering all the time, God knows whether they were talking to us or just for their own pleasure?! Also, these two receptionists always said NO to all my questions. Ex: me: may we stay in the room which can receive more sunshine in the morning? receptionist: NO!! FULLY BOOKED!! THIS IS THE ONLY ROOM WE HAVE!!; me: How much discount we will have if we have meal or drink in the restaurant/ bar inside the hotel? receptionist: NO! NO DISCOUNT!! (you may check their Restaurant Promotions it clearly stats: 10-20% discount for the in house guest, simply want to confirm this with the receptionist...however, the answer i got is always negative) Well, in some ways, always say NO to the guest should be an alternative SUPER EFFICIENT (cus they customer would stop asking more questions) and easy (cus all they need is to say NO) way for the receptionist. (well, maybe always SAYING NO TO GUEST is Pullman's SOP?!)
2. English ability: As a staff working in five star hotel, the basic english conversation shall not be an impossible or harsh request. But, based on our 4-day staying in Pullman, we found no matter you go to talk with the front desk in person, face to face or make call to the room service, most of the time, it's very unlikely you would get what exactly you ask for. Ex: one night, i called the front desk, said we would need 1 bottle of 「bath gel」 mins after...they gave us 2 bottles of 「shampoo」 (well, i bet their bath gel is out of stock )
tired of those hotel which provide "Standard" service? tired of seeing those "Standard" smile face in the front desk? Want to experience lazy and CREATIVE service which would provide you lots of unexpected surprise?! If so, Pullman Bangkok King Power shall be the BEST choice!!
