David and Blue Jean Chef outside---NO,

I live up in these parts and it was ridiculous having them out demoing that grill liner thingy in the cold and the 30-40 mph winds.  Without coats.  That was stupid.  They were both freezing.  You could have delayed that item until the weather was reasonable.

You really did have to feel for them out in the cold & wind.  Talk about "taking one for the team".......

David could have grabbed a jacket....he chooses not to...he always says the cold doesn't bother him...well i guess that didn't happen today....

 

Last week they had a TSV...gosh i can't remember what it was...but the hosts had to go outside for the presentations...I saw Dan Wheeler out at midnight..and I was awake for the 3am showing and that host had to go outside...I forget who she was....and I happen to see the Q. off and on during the rest of the day and every host was outside....cold...and ALL of them had Jackets ON.....

 

Oh, and all the presentations were hour long ones...which is ridiculous to do that to their hosts....and vendors...who have to be out their, too....

I really don't think those outdoor presentations are necessary when the weather isn't suitable. They could always show video footage of someone demonstrating the product.

Last weekend was the Sun Joe saw.  They were all outside.  Some with coats, some without.

It seems it would make sense for a business like QVC to locate It's main hub to a better climate area such as California rather than West Chester PA. It must  because land is cheap and taxes are probably less in PA.  The weather is so crummy in PA.

PA has seasonal weather, it's not crummy.  I like living in PA because of the season changes.  I doubt QVC will relocate to another state just for the few outdoor demonstrations that they have.

Re: David and Blue Jean Chef outside---NO,

What a shame they made David and Blue Jean work outside.  I'm not far from Q and worked on the lawn today, cleaning up twigs from last night's storm.  There were still some wind gusts, and temps in the 40's, so it wasn't real pleasant.  But it was sunny, and that's the main thing.
