Forcasting

This week Kenny Funk came to our class as a guest lecturer. He comes to us from Disney where he is an Vice-President for merchandise planning. What does that mean? Well, lots of research, planning and forcasting for the market of sales. He talked to us about forcasting for the most part. They plan eighteen months out, can you believe that? I can only plan a few weeks at a time.
The rest of the class we went over very quickly I might add three chapters. I don't remember so much there probabley because we were moving quickly or it could just have been I am stressing over this project we have to do for this class. I picked something that I know something about but I keep coming up blank in certain areas. Not to mention the term paper I have to do in Sociology, I pretty much have that one done, I just have some minor fixes to complete then it is good to go.
On a personal note I finally found a job, I start this Monday. Kinda, a bad time since I still have lots of project work to do but I have to survive too. Really looking foward to a break from classes. Not so much the holidays though, no money and all. I really hate the society that we live in. Well, enough complaining. Just one more post and I am done. See you next week.......
