Dressing for Failure
I got to see last week's Apprentice thanks to the DVR feature on the family's digital TV set.
But I digress...
Magna and Net Worth were asked to design clothing that had pockets for gadgets contained in them. Both teams were given 5000 USD to buy the gadgets needed. Magna pulled in another good peformance this week, designing a sports jersey with a pocket for a game boy, plus other clothing that allowed for placement of mobles and other gadgets. They polled customers in a store and found that cellphones were popular. Their presentation was very well done and convincing. Their was one minor speed bump with Kendra compaining about her lack of knowledge about women's clothing. After this, Tana snapped everyone back into shape.
Net Worth has sunk to its lowest point. It started with a terrible idea involing a jacket with a huge back pocket for a laptop. It seemed beyond silly; rather it seemed a wee bit dumb. Who would want to carry a huge laptop on their back? That's why cases were made. Things didn't get better. While shopping at Best Buy, Chris (who improved himself last week after realizing he had to stay in the game) lost the team's credit card and wasted a few hours hounding Best Buy until he got it back. If thought that was bad, here's more. When it came time to the presentation, Net Worth had a model who forgot a piece of clothing. Besides that, the team was late and Angie slurred her words during her presentation. In short, they lost.
The boardroom was tense. Angie got barbs for the bad presentation and Chris got it for his bad performance in general. Alex got told he was brought down by "losers" Chris and Angie.
The latter of the losers got fired.
It would not have been me.
