Update 8/25
I want to move soon. I just had a very unpleasant experience. It was unbelievable and very unfair. Life is difficult right now. I ordered Papa John’s just before things went downhill. I was outside when the food arrived. (There was an issue with the delivery, but the food was good. The first driver did not… Continue reading

Continuing My Review of CNBC Make It Videos
GP Stephan’s story is interesting. His hard work clearly paid off – you see his awards and beautiful home. He continues to work hard. Sitting at his desk for at least 10 hours per day is normal for him. He was lucky to discover Las Vegas through a friend. It appears that he moved there… Continue reading

Reviews
My previous post (the post added earlier today) made me think of the first signature assignment I prepared at NCU, which was on online reviews. While preparing that signature assignment, I learned that a consumer review is considered more believable if it is balanced or neutral. One-sided reviews are not as believable. The analysis provided… Continue reading

Members of the community have fun providing feedback about their community using cards, drink coasters, voicemail, and so on. One example is a photo contest so there is some competition involved. This fun approach… Continue reading

Customer Service
I am on the phone quite a lot dealing with appointment issues, records issues, and so on. Sometimes I am amazed how long it takes to reach a representative (I am on hold for a long time). Sometimes it takes several calls. Once, I made it clear that I wanted one option but ended up… Continue reading
FEATURED
I am working to be published.
I completed 11 signature assignments – significant papers with original ideas. In one paper, I foresaw specific problems at a major company. In another, I designed a study (with statistical analyses) to explain why videos do not significantly enhance or improve online reviews. I worked alone. My signature assignments available at: https://fahmeenaodettasignaturepapers.tumblr.com.
About THIS BLOG
I created this blog to capture my thoughts and ideas and to practice writing. Why practice writing? I was on a break from my PhD and not writing much. I needed to continue writing regularly – I wrote and submitted weekly assignments/papers.
I also track my mental health using this blog.
I am currently working on publishing my papers in academic journals. Click the ‘paperforpublishing’ tag in the tags section below for my last status update. My main area of specialization is usability/user experience. Click on the ‘usability’ tag to view my posts, including ideas, on usability. If you are here for information on my success research, click on the ‘success’ tag. If you are here for information on my hometown, click on the ‘lindenguyana’ tag.
I welcome comments. Submit your comments and feedback at any time. I prefer that you use Facebook for comments, but feel free to comment in any of the blogs or on Twitter.
