Rowing over Pizza

I finally was able to watch last weeks Apprentice.

Our teams were asked that week to build a pizza with toppings that Domino's rarely used. Both teams picked meatballs. While their topping of choice was the same, that's were the sameness ended.

Net Worth, who picked up Alex as a result of being one short compared to Magna, mainly focused on Street people and used hired temp workers to go into NYU sharing the joy of pizza. This appeared to not work to a great extent. The day before, Chris and Alex made a deal with some contractors in Brooklyn for pizza. Angie and Stephanie went to deliver their pizza the next day. While they did that, Chris and Alex almost got into it after Chris told Alex to get out of his face. It was a pretty tense moment. This, with the time wasted on the Brooklyn pizzas, slowed down Net Worth. Not good. Magna worked pretty well together. Kendra and Craig had a little row about not expressing ideas clearly. Their plan was to go into businesses and promote pizza. This worked with people coming to them in return. In short, they won.

The boardroom was a mesh of a few different things. Trump was unhappy with Chris and Alex's little row and Stephanie repeated assured Trump and his chiefs that she could manage Chris. She prodded him over his smokeless tobacco habit (he had quit) temper, and fowl words. Apparently, she expected everything to be neat and orderly.

Sometimes its not that way. By her words, Stephanie failed to convince Trump she could manage. For that she got fired.

It was time for her to go.
