I don't know about you, but at least twice a year I have to contact [Jutta] and have a new royalty cheque cut due to them going missing in the post. This is a waste of [Jutta]'s time, and obviously incurs unnecessary expense for the HB.
My suggestion is simple; having received the royalty payments
each month and done the necessary calculations, instead of sending a cheque and a per-idea breakdown in the post, the breakdown be sent by e-mail and the money deposited electronically direct to each halfbaker's bank account. This could be an opt-in system.
(Obviously if none of your ideas have been good enough to be commercially licensed by the [HB], this will mean nothing to you)

You're still on that old system? |
|

You just reminded me to send out my Annotations Invoices. I really don't need all the extra money, but what can you do? |
|
| |
1. Send [jutta] another drawdown on the treasury facility, for the next six months' trading activity. |
|
| |
2. Rewrite business plan, to get the HB profitable enough to turn a profit. The constant drain on BubbaCo Investments is an embarrassment. |
|
| |
3. Perform risk and profitability assessment on all active halfbakers, to determine their long-term viability. "Reassess account status" of those deemed unlikely to produce any profitable ideas within next 12 months. |

| |
Wake up, [vvv]. Time for your next shift. Clean the shovel when you've finished. |
|

It seems nobody has licensed any of our [emperor]'s ideas.... |
|
| |
I've found it more tax-efficient to receive share options. |
|
| |
Oh, please, yes. Particularly if it helps keep track of the currency conversions. |
|
| |
I just deposit all my premiums into my 201/2 IRA. I
can't wait till I can retire and visit London and
Australia on my prior earnings. Yay! Finally! |
|
| |
blissy can kip here with me anytime. |
|
| |
We'll make up the spare room for you, [blissness]. |
|
| |
Persian silk, or fine Irish linen? |
|
| |
Both please, one atop, one and a half, abottom. And
thank you both. |

What's all this nonsense about post and deposit? 21stCQE sends
all receipts and invoices via carrier pigeon, escorted by
autonomous AI-augmented Predator UAVs and preceded by a
vanguard of eagles. For increased
security, they fly a different route at different altitudes every
trip. We also send them to retrieve any funds that are owed to
us. By force, if necessary. The HB has been such a good business
partner, so fortunately such measures have not been necessary.
Some of our other partners have been less honorable... and less
fortunate. Being outnumbered by unfavorable odds, 21stCQE
sincerely
hopes it stays that way. |

I opted for the deferred payment program.
As long as you only get up to go to the bathroom you get to keep an open tab. |
|
| |
//nobody has licensed any//
D'oh! What gave it away? ;-) |
|
| |
Well 2fry, going to the bathroom around here seems
to be pretty lucrative. With all the seat, and paper
ideas, it would seem some bakers never get off. |
