Hello! I’m Eila and I didn’t exactly
follow the rules for this assignment...
![Page 3: ARE YOU PAYING ATTENTION?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070316/555d55f7d8b42a52368b4d98/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
We had to go to 6 different stores and observe, looking for hidden
opportunities...

But I found many of my peers
complaining about that...

When I pointed out that difficulties are opportunities to be creative, someone answered: “Enjoy your rose-colored glasses”

So I decided to complete this assignment without making a special effort to do so…
And I found a lot of opportunities…
![Page 7: ARE YOU PAYING ATTENTION?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070316/555d55f7d8b42a52368b4d98/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Just by looking with different eyes what surrounds me every day…
![Page 8: ARE YOU PAYING ATTENTION?](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070316/555d55f7d8b42a52368b4d98/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Some of them were right in front of me…
Looking around my house, I found several empty water bottles… and realized that I buy between 3 and 5
bottles of water EVERY WEEK.
Such a waste! and huge opportunity to save some money! So that very day I went to buy that cute pink bottle and I’ve been using it for almost a week…

At work I also noticed a lot of waste around…
An empty trash can at a coffee station takes around 10 minutes to be full, like
the one in the photo.

In other places I found lack of control…
I took the photo too fast, but if you look closely, the guy in charge of the copy
machine is holding an icecream cone!

Waste of time…
3 guys at the Office Depot neglecting
customers, all of them are working on long time taking projects while
several of us are waiting just to take one or two
copies…

Eventually, I went to the supermarket…And found MANY opportunities
Christmas decoration cart clogging the aisles
New floor, old floor, dirty floor…
This is not a hidden opportunity… it’s a hidden mop.

Rat trap right at the entrance of
the store!
Loose socket behind that rail
Wall needs some
painting
This guy was giving away brochures,
he’s supposed to be a scoth but he just
looks funny!

Even different ways of looking at the same place…
Inside… Outside…
Across the street

Finally, this aren’t opportinities…
Just some funny stuff I found while paying attention!
Heart shaped chicken breast
Kid wearing two different kind of
shoes
“Lets solve our differences with kisses… #Streettweet”
