Everyone’s a Cook…but no Nobel Prize…
September 9, 2009Yes People….Nowadays it seems that every one from the ages 12 and above is a cook….these small businesses are killing me here…..
I receive message after message regarding new people who sell their cooking (especially the Desserts)….Seriously..I noticed some new weird creations…its like lets go into the kitchen…put anything on a cake…and we create DESSERT….
I just received one of the small businesses that makes desserts….and the dessert consists of “mini” cupcakes topped with Arabic sweets….Ok..it might taste good…it might not…bs ya nas..ya 3alaaaaaaam…..when you make a dessert with anything you find in the kitchen….thats just called “3ak”…..
Lets talk about another industry…..the BB fashion design…yes…It seems the BB has made people get out their vision in covering up those BB behinds….have you seen how many people create and sell BB covers??? BB COVERS…..the irony….
La and now we have our own Louis Vuitton here…..every girl thinks she is a fashion designer and sells her “outbreaks” …. And the stuff I’ve seen was scary…Wouldn’t even wear it in Halloween…
La…and the people who buy clothes, accessories and food from abroad and sell them in Kuwait with very very high prices…as if they bothered themselves stitching those clothes….
I love creativity…..I support creative people….but…buuuuut….not everyone can do this…yes there are many creative people out there…and they should be supported 100%…
But the people who are trying the “get rich quick” schemes are increasing rapidly…and its hard to control…and unfortunately…some people help those small businesses…they create an exhibition….get a few sponsors here and there…and they “sell” the booth areas for small businesses….and get out with the profit……
Ladies…And gents…go ahead and use your talent…sell your food…sell your creations…sell your exported goods….but please…make sure that you do not sell stuff that is not worth it…or by selling it with very high prices…because that’s not business…that’s just running after money….
hahaha my friend just asked me to have a small business bs no time for that:p yeah craziness is happening right now !!:P
Well you can look at it in 2 ways.
1) It’s a good start for our generation to start something new, yes they are just copying each other but having this new concept of small business is a good motivator to lots of people.
2) This new fad will only cause another craze which would end up in a dead end of small businesses.
Yes, right now very few people actually have a creative small business products. Lets not forget even big businesses in Kuwait are mostly Western themed restaurants, which also lacks the creativity because they are simply franchisers.
Oh, BTW, creativity will come, but not with those within; but with those without.
Sorry for the long comment.
