Customers are Never Right

In our world, businesses profit off of customers to succeed. Businesses make decisions to appeal to their audience. Because of this ideology, the phrase “customers are always right” has been used to garner what businesses believe to be trust with customers. They’ll tell you, “Hey! You’ll always be right, so come and use our services.” This makes businesses susceptible to damage. Customers are enabled to feel like they have all the power. They can start yelling at employees and go endlessly on and on about how they’ve been wronged. This turns into a demon possessing the patron’s body and going rabid.

American Indian Tribes of North Carolina

In Sept. 1620, the Pilgrims, a group of people from England, arrived in America in what we know today as Plymouth, Massachusetts. After receiving help in the new world from the American Indians and acquiring a successful harvest a year after their arrival, it is believed that the Pilgrims held a feast jointly with a local tribe. This celebration between the Pilgrims and the local Wampanoag tribe would become known as the first Thanksgiving, a national holiday that would continue to be observed throughout American history.
