Pikes Place hates FISH philosophy?

This is a dated movie, not representing reality at Pike Place. You see 'Bear' in action not even close to the way I have see him performing 3 times. And it's not in line with the short interview I had with Bear last year. The FISH! philosophy as in the movie FISH! is for real.

FISH philosophy was just the basic knowledge of adapting working environment. However in some place, text book are useless.

I think that some of the people that have written comments here desperatly needs to work on their attitude......for their own sake! Whats wrong with having fun, choose your attitude, stay focused on your customer (who ever they might be) and give good days to others? It's basic to me.... be careful with your life - you can't rewind and do it again!

As Kevin Carson points out, if your boss feeds you this FISH! bullshit, then tell him that you're going to start working less hard and for fewer hours, and that he needs to take a more positive attitude ("you can't control what I do, but you can control your attitude about it"). Then you'll see whose agenda FISH! is serving. (Hint: Not yours )

(BTW, the definitive smackdown of FISH! is on p. 275-278 of Carson's "Organization Theory"; there's an HTML version online too. Highly recommended.)

That guy NEEDS THE FISH PHILOSOPHY. I dont know about any of you but I want to have fun at work and as a store manager, I make sure my team is laughing and having fun in the end, we all win... the highest compliment Ive received as manager, was from one of my associates telling me that they love coming to work.
