So your company is lucky enough to win the rights to supply the US with rain gear for the Ryder Cup in Wales. And with the weather in Wales, you will probably get some TV time for your products. First day of the Ryder Cup...its coming down in buckets. Lets watch our stock price skyrocket!
Opps!
How to turn a great opportunity into a trip to unemployment!

Who do you fire? It's not like one person screwed up. The product itself just sucked. It seems to me that the whole company failed.

The rain in Wales falls mainly... on everyone, everywhere, all the time. Except maybe for a couple of weeks in June when it will only drizzle on you.

I'm not sure there is actually a raincoat in existence which can completely deal with Welsh weather.

Well, Sun Mountain's main product is golf bags (I didn't even know they did outerwear and I am a pretty avid golfer that managed resort courses in the past). I would say the head the outerwear product division is through, unless he has pictures of someone.

I feel the same way. What's the point of raincoats that don't work?
