Bug List 2A

This is my Bug list for Assignment #1,

1. The Gymnasium in 13th Street Apartments (university house) lacks machinery.
a. There are too many people in the complex and people need to wait on the machinery since it is so full during the day.

2. Walking to college from my apartment makes me sweat too much.
a. The humidity and heat in the swap of Gainesville make the temperature of the day very hot to walk through.

3. The food at Whole Foods by Archer Road is too expensive and makes eating healthy a challenge.
a. Nutrition should be less expensive and people are forced to eat low-quality foods such as pre-packaged, low-quality foods that end up creating health problems

4. The washer/dryer in my new apartment is very small. I need to do three to four loads of laundry to wash all of my clothes.
a. The washer in the previous complex was three times bigger and fitted much more clothes than this washer.

5. Golf is such a complicated sport that if you don’t practice for a week, your short game skills deteriorate.
a. Golf is a game of consistency and practice, if people miss a week, they will have two weeks of practice to fill up the lost week which makes it very hard to improve.

6. The traffic light in 13th street and University Avenue is very inefficient and sometimes I will be waiting in the stop light for more than 10 minutes because there is so much traffic.
a. All the traffic meets up because two of the four main roads of Gainesville (Archer, University, 13th Street and 34th Street) meet up and generate lots of traffic during rush hour.

7. The workers from my dad’s company (which serves in the merchandise industry) do not care if the company succeeds or not, they are never motivated and are lazy most of the time.
a. In Ecuador, there is a law which states that an Employer must pay 6 months of the Employee’s salary to fire them. This was created by Ecuador’s previous President Rafael Correa and workers do not feel the rush of accomplishing their tasks because they know that their boss won't fire them.

8. Amazon Seller Central is so customer based that they do not even listen to the sellers' point of view sometimes.
a. Amazon has built such a loyal customer service that they are the #1 in the industry for online storefronts, however, their seller support is very slow, inefficient and careless.

9. Vegans find it very hard to find their protein supplies when trying to build some muscle on a non-animal and non-dairy based diet.
a. Meat, chicken, and fish contain high protein levels and legumes such as quinoa, beans, and chickpeas have the same nutritional value; but we need to eat very big quantities of them to achieve the desired protein intake to build muscle support.

10. It is very hard to find a parking spot from Mid-town to Downtown Gainesville and every time I go there with my car, I have a bad time finding a parking spot.
a. A lot of the land here is owned by landlords and they want it to be private property, so all of the potential parking spots already have a “Private Property” violation sign.

11. Importing roses from Ecuador to sell locally is a long and complicated process by the US Immigration and Customs.
a. The US Customs protects the local habitat from invasive species such as bacteria, infections and other types of potential dangers for local flowers to prevent disasters such as the mice pests in Australia and the Orange production problem in Florida occurred by invasive threats transported from other countries that can be found in foreign flowers.

12. In Ecuador, I could drink alcohol because the drinking age is 18 and here it is 21, so I can't drink in the US.
a. Studies believe that the brain is still developing until the human body is 21 years and people are immature and cannot tolerate the responsibility of drinking.

13. My father is my Boss, and sometimes he pushes mine harder than any other Boss I have ever had and sometimes he does not understand that I also need to balance by the academic career as well.
a. He expects much from me because we have a closer relationship than any other Boss and employee might have; he wants the best for me and wants to teach me the disciplines of Entrepreneurship as early as possible since he knows I want a successful future ahead of me.

14. My friend has a dog in the apartment and sometimes barks throughout the day when his owner is not at home.
a. My roommate has experienced depression and this dog is a supportive dog and has helped him a lot, furthermore, he needs to train the dog to not bark inside the apartment

15. My friends go out to party way too much, they do not realize that there are also other types of recreational activities such as outdoor adventures.
a. They do not have the same type of personality as I have. They have grown in a society in Ecuador where partying is everything and are too immature to acknowledge that there are other types of recreational activities and fear they will not enjoy it as much as going to a nightclub.

16. My roommates sometimes keep the TV volume high in the middle of the night, and I find it very complicated to concentrate on my responsibilities with people laughing and high TV noise.
a. They are different than I am, they do not go out and their recreational and social activities involve laughing at a movie with some friends, they are not as extroverted as I am. They have matured to a higher degree career wise and acknowledge that having a deep conversation about their career while watching a movie will give them more utility that going to a nightclub.

17. My teacher in Business Statistics is very fast paced, I find it very complicated to catch up with her and sometimes get lost in the middle of her lectures.
a. I need to acknowledge that I am in a very competitive University and no longer in College. Students need to study at their own time and be prepared for class beforehand rather than learning while she explains the topic.

18. It BUGGS me that I want to get so involved in the University of Florida but my career ideas (having three businesses of my own) takes a lot of time and sometimes I need to prioritize my career over my social life.
a. People need to realize that their career is more important than their social life and being responsible will pay off in the future when working professionally and taking important decisions. On the other hand, College students need to take advantage of the college life because late in life they will not have the opportunity to meet so many people and have a great time.

19. I like to make smoothies in the morning but my roommates think that the noise the blender makes is not tolerable and I should not make smoothies in the morning.
a. People have different schedules and they both need to meet an agreement where both of them are happy.

20. Sometimes I think too much about my future and I get stressed and Nagy which gives me a bad mood.
a. Stress management relates to mindfulness if people do not listen to themselves and are busy all day without relaxing they will turn into auto-pilot. Being able to manage responsibilities requires a lot of peacefulness and relaxation.

Reflection:

The only aspect of this exercise that I found difficult is the aspect of thinking negatively to find these products. I normally try to look at things in a positive way and oversee these problems by learning how to beat my obstacles. Sometimes I do not pay much attention to these obstacles, but this is the key to finding opportunities in reaching the “root” of these problems to find solutions. I think that this exercise helped me think outside the box because I was not thinking about why the problem exists for me, but why does it exist beyond myself. This changes your mindset for a while and I find it very interesting for my future business ideas.
