Pizza Hut's answer to Lebron James and all the pizzeria upstarts
Recently, Pizza Hut has been down in sales. Pizza Hut has been trying out a new system in a small Texas town. Pizza Hut blames the lower speed on the slow sales, so in order to fix that, they are trying out new ovens that are hotter and should shorten the cooking time. I think that they should follow Domino's lead on Tweeting a pizza emoji (or something of the like) to help decrease time. This way, customers don't have to take time calling and placing an order, or ordering online.

Robert Knight: Law preserves status quo for polluters
Gainesville's water systems have become increasingly dirty. We once had very clean water (especially due to being surrounded by so much water) and now our water is becoming more and more polluted. This is a problem for all residents of Gainesville. The pollution is due to less regulation of environmental laws. These need to be more enforced, so that the people of Gainesville can have cleaner water.

Newberry Road lanes to close tonight for repair work
Roads are closing due to repair work on Newberry Rd. This poses a problem for all people traveling to and from campus, work, or errands that use Newberry Road. This will make their travel time and commute much longer, and they will need to allocate more time.

Hey Caroline!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed your blog post seeing as it was based on a source different than mine which was the Miami Herald. I really enjoyed being able to get updated about current events here in our very own Gainesville! What I appreciated most about the opportunities you identified was the fact that they had to do with things that I feel truly directly impact even myself as a student. I felt the issues were actually relevant to me because I live here in Gainesville which made it easier to appreciate in comparison to my blog post which was based on the source of the Miami herald. You also did a great job of identifying opportunities because I felt like they were all problems that could in fact have solutions implemented. Keep up the great work! Also, if you'd like check out my blog post on similar opportunities but down in South Florida: http://entreprevision.blogspot.com/2016/01/identifying-local-opportunities.html
