Well, I was expected to do a business project ( I had all month to do it, but I did it in one night >.<) and.. I decided to do it about Polarbear Cafe. *Really corny >.<* I didn't bother elaborating, because my PA teacher's not gonna read it anyways -.- Also, it's pretty bad >.< Name of Business: Polarbear Café Location of Business: San Francisco, California Brief History: Polarbear Café came into light on the succulent day of December 21, 2012, as it engrossingly progressed under the management of a Mr. Karl Jude G. Rojas. The café owed its luck to a mysterious benefactor of the Serramonte Shopping Center in Daly City, California, as they heavily advertised the bean sprout of a business to their every-so-ready shoppers. The progressive advance may have also been contributed by the insightful Flickr team (www.flickr.com) as they fed their visitors a light appetizer of ads containing the mascot of the Polarbear Café. Currently, the Café is under single ownership as it continues to provide a recreational-service type as a “hang-out†for all ages, a buffet/diner for those seeking a new spice in life, a stern, yet simple design for gamers, readers, or those just looking for a little peace in this race called life. Other services include catering, run by our expert chef Joshua O. Pangan, assisted by our compromising assistant chef Kyle Zosa, and our five star baker, Augustine Danthea D. Gutierrez. Our entertainment agency is headed by our own musician, Vince Louise M. Milan, along with his band mates Julius Quiaba, John Stephen Buhay, and Omar Nombreda. Our party administration is lead by our rookie of the year, Nathaniel Fernandez, assisted by Aaron Blanco, and Mark Maloto. Our board of members is only picked from the best of the best, wherein we guarantee service like no place else.

Rojas, however, just a month before the name was brought into the spotlight, and he was just your average freshie, looking for a job out of college. With his grades, he would be lucky enough just to find a job to supply himself for just food for a month. After being rejected so many times, Karl reflected on his past, remembering that vague memory of “Polarbear Café†during a joking session with one of his best friends. The area of venue was challenging enough, the fact that he took out a loan that was near impossible to pay if his business didn’t boom automatically, he gambled with luck, despite his streak so far. The fact that only a crazy person would take out a 10 million loan without any back up proved that he had guts, not intellect, but guts. But guts aren’t enough. After successfully bidding $10,000 above the preferred price, the desolated building was his, seven stories of renovating, along with 4,500 square feet (1 floor) the debt wasn’t over. Common sense dictates that renovating would be a good idea, but how can one renovate if they are trapped in a pit of debt? Easy, take out another loan. The dusty location proved to be a mess, as he set off on his single team of one, hoping to be able to clean up this mess, and after two days, he finally called up a cleaning crew. After two weeks of work, and toil, the hard part was only beginning, with only $980,000 left in his pocket, he had to turn this dump into a restaurant, with this in mind, and he called up several close friends, namely: Vince, Joshua, Aya, Edric, Montana, and Mark to help him with decoration. Two more weeks with a mover, a supplier, an interior designer, a baker, and some inventors, they managed to finish the first floor, the restaurant. With this in mind, he managed to hire some workers to gain a steady supply of cash for his debts… 12 customers… not enough, I hastily thought to my self, how was I gonna pay this debt with 12 customers!? Disaster struck me; I was in denial, my first bill… Total amount owed 180,000 smackaroos. “Friggitâ€ÂÂ, I thought to my self, as I stared into the abyss, I need the money, I need to work harder. Two months passed, and the second floor was done, the kiddy area/ arcade, I was at a total net value of $2,008,861 so far, and I’m only making an estimated $20,000 per month, I need a better source of money. I decided to invest some money into stock brokers, they advised me on what stocks to buy, and what to sell, I put them in charge of the money and with luck, and they boosted efficiency 300%! I was at total value of $5,084,321 on my 8th month, not bad for a freshie, but only 4 floors were working, that was my limit, I could no longer think, until someone mentioned, I like this place, you guys should be an Inn instead! I was severely in debt this time, the bill read $2,000,000 flat, that is the time when I invested in this Inn Idea, and it turned out to be a profit! The main area was done, and it was time to expand, I could make a total amount of close to $250,000 per month, but minus the expenses, I’m left with $120,000, and my debts keep on getting higher! If there was only one way to make money quick… That’s when it hit me! Advertising, I needed a bigger area of advertisement. I paid a visit to Flickr Labs, and Serramonte Shopping center, and they said they’ll see what they can do. Little did I know, they did more than what I expected, business increased 700%, a surprising amount, even for me! My nights were exclusively filled to the brim. It seemed that this workaholic’s effort paid off. With his friends that were loyally beside him this whole time, he managed to keep his business alive. He eventually expanded his business to capture these population areas, where his motto became: There is no price for quality There is no price indeed, and with this insightful story of my life, I present to you, Polarbear Café, a place of effort, because: WE TRY HARDER! I was finally released of debt after 4 years in this business, my total business worth? $470,837,215, in 103 different branches The business itself produces close to 3 million per month, my profit is a measly 400,000 per month, but 50% of it goes to charity (How else will I evade taxes?)
Delicious Ham and Potato Soup……..$3.50 Why is this the only item on the menu prefixed with an adjective? not very consistent.
It was a soup with both of them >.> not two different dishes. My teacher isn't even gonna read it, so I had some fun with it
