Sometimes You Have To Take Matters Into Your Own Hands

If you’ve ever been serially dumped, Pumpkins, you know there comes a time when you just have to take matters in your own hands. Although my matters prefer something with batteries.


Take CanJet Vacations. After being publicly dumped by Thomas Cook, then Transat, what choice did they have but to do it alone? Some would go so far as to say that Transat was their training ground. A dry run, so to speak. Getting to know the ins and outs, the lay of the land, the seasonal ebb and flow.


The upshot is the CanjetVacations.com website is now open for bookings from Toronto to some sunny places. It looks nice. To investigate the story, one of the nincompoops here spoke with the VP of Sales & Marketing, John Kirk, yesterday who had this to say: “I’ve been here for 4 hours and everything is great. Sales are up and I’m doing an amazing job.” Sounds like his batteries are definitely loaded.

Columnist

Part legend, part myth, all woman: Ivanna Gabbalot is OJ’s gossip columnist and considers herself the industry’s conscience. Equally annoying to Open Jaw management and inflated egos in C-suites everywhere, Ivanna works infrequently, preferring to snipe from the sidelines.
