BLUE PLACIDOLA
Your compete MICRO*scope for today
You are the type of person who ambles through life with no apparent care in the world, but you get the job done. Family and friends often nudge you from behind or tug your arm for no apparent reason. Today, you are likely to spend a great deal of time wandering around the shopping mall wanting to buy either a how-to book on fixing your computer, with illustrations or several magazines on computer software. Be on the lookout for rusty deck screws. You should consider shopping at stores or businesses beginning with the letter P, but do not buy any products with a serial number or product code containing the number 668492. Your preferred shopping venue is department stores. Your special symbol is the at sign (@).
Is this You?
As a Blue Placidola, you are easy-going and even-tempered, calm and composed. For you, the hectic pace of a crowded shopping mall during the holiday rush is nothing, it's little more than a tranquil stroll in the park. Life is good. Life goes on. Why worry. You are a happy shopper and you seldom fret over trivial details of a market exchange, in part because you are astute enough to get moderately low prices and relatively good deals.
This isn't me! What am I?

He's coming out of the Mona Mallard Duct Tape Industries plant with all of the duct tape factory workers. And he seems most distressed. Let's get to the bottom of this. Here's his story. The drywall business sort of dried up, and Dan has taken up employment in the exciting field of duct tape fabrication. The duct tape workers, though, are talking union. Dan's indecisive about this move toward unionization. Perhaps we can help him out. Let's stroll around the often controversial topic of labor unions.
