Nothing. I have no expectations, especially expectations of results. I can’t promise results, only that I would do all I could to improve the relationship between CP and the shopkeepers and offer every bit of feedback I can on a given subject. I don’t want you to think that my lack of expectations equals a lack of responsibility or caring either. I just have no way to say what I could accomplish when I have only a vague idea of the concept and inner workings of the council. Nominations haven’t been announced by CP (they are to be announced to all Shopkeepers tomorrow, May 2nd) and the details nominees have been given are not complete. I am under the impression that tomorrow’s announcement will clear up a lot of my questions.
I do have a lot of hopes for the council. I hope that I would be able to broaden the perspective of CP - I think many times they do not expect the reaction they get from the community (case in point: the move to Commission Junction). I think CP could benefit from the knowledge and experience of the candidates to get an better idea of what the community wants and expects. I hope I could affect the quality of the site, production and products by sharing my thoughts, experiences, pet peeves and concerns. I hope that by getting a different point of view, CP will maybe look at things in a different light and be able to make decisions that not only benefit the company but the community and shoppers as well.
Why do I want to be elected? I think that I would be a valuable asset and I would love to do anything I could to make CP a better place for shopkeepers and shoppers. CP is my job, and I notorious for wanting to improve my work environment - make things easier and better. I think I have a lot of good ideas and the right outlook. I like to keep things positive, but honest. I like to ask “why?”, which I think is a great was to see both sides of a story and to understand another point of view.
I am not in this to be the most popular or one of the cool kids. I feel I have a lot to offer - if my input can improve the CP experience, it’s good for everyone. The higher the quality is at CP, the better off we all are.
