*** The Apprentice 6 ***

That woman who's the team leader is full of ****. She's the type of person who talks the talk and that's it.. and even the talk isn't convincing :p
 
********! Had it on delay and virgin box just rebooted just as he was about to fire someone!

Who got booted?
 
At the moment, my money would be on Liz and the ex-marine to go far.

"I got an A* in my maths GCSE" WTF? Shut up, you weirdo. And Gok Wan has to go. She's doing my head in.
 
the basics of this show these days imo:

a whole bunch of idiots and eye candy, split into two teams.

these two teams, are given a relatively simple task. they both **** up, big time.

the team which has ****ed up the least, wins and is rewarded for their **** up.

losing team loses an idiot. leaving a bunch of idiots.

rinse and repeat.

the show is lucky they have Liz on, thats all im saying :D
 
I have to agree about the 'bunch of idiots' thing, it really amazes me that these people claim to be the best buisness people out there, and yet, time after time, they prove that they aren't.

Hell, sometimes I wonder if perhaps an series of "I have no business experience, but I'll give it a go" would provide just as much entertainment, and don't cite that surgeon as an example of why it would go wrong, he just didn't know when to stop shooting himself in the foot.

Even the idiots made something like 700% profit. :)

Gross profit, which by the looks of it didn't take into account any manufacturing or distribution costs, which you'd normally account for in gross margin. It seemed to only account for the cost of ingredients.

Although, in fairness, that all applies to the winners, too.
 
I agree, very likely that the costs that they incurred, only accounted for 'ingredients' and not for the cost of the equipment, manpower, distribution, branding etc, otherwise, they'd not have stood a chance.

However, in this case, those things are considered to be a constant, and thus cancel each other out as the end of the day figures, are to compare two opposing teams, thus it comes down to 'how much did they use to make their product' and 'how much did they earn'


What I do ponder about, given that they were trying to sell at 'trade' prices to the bigger retailers, would it not have made much more sense to the teams, to completely ignore the corporate deals, and focused more on making more for the general retail market, and push that, where their per-unit profit would have been MUCH higher. As was pointed out on You're Fired, the average trade price for a bread roll, is about 20p for a good one, had they sold bread rolls on the market stall, they could have near tripled the unit price and still made a good profit.

What a bunch of morons really. Was a total joke.

So far I think the guy Jamie is the best by a long way. Seems very level headed and normal which is lacking in the rest of them.

Lady Gaga, the loud Aussie, the one with the frog eyes and the Sandeesh thing all seriously do my head in. They really haven't a clue.

I just wonder how long LSA can be bothered with recording this show. O and I think he is almost as obnoxious a weed as the rest of them.

Short blondy that put herself up for Project Manager as she said "yeah im awsome in this"
