He died in the hospital days later from his injuries.

The old adage, and a good rule of thumb for retailers, is “the customer is always right.”
In the days prior to online shopping, it was more of an attitude that good retailers instilled to make their customers welcome. The retailers, however, were still in charge. Today, that’s no longer the case. Consumers have taken the lead, and never is it more apparent for retailers and the supply chain than in the peak seasons, such as back-to-school and the Christmas and Hanukkah holidays.

Traditional hiring has largely focused on a candidate's experience and education as the primary qualifiers for a position. Both skills and knowledge can be learned and mastered over time.
While there certainly is merit in evaluating what someone has learned and what he or she has done so far in a career, it is at best an incomplete set of criteria. Why? Because there is more to performing a job than just knowledge and skills.
