Utah Gossip

I was very upset recently by a negative experience with C and W Insurance and Gloria Westphal in Orem, UT. Their negligence in informing my wife and I of a change we had to make to our insurance has cost us thousands of dollars and the best I could get out of them was a […]

Recently we were referred to a service known as ITEX by another local Utah company. The concept is pretty simple - companies trade services with one another using virtual ITEX dollars as opposed to spending real cash - a good boost for a small business owner looking to improve cash flow.
After signing up, however, we […]

We here at Utah Gossip have been slacking quite a bit…a full week since the last post! So for all you avid readers, I thought I would satisfy your cravings for more bizarre, fun, and random Utah news with a quick rant about something that is apparently very popular (and accepted) in the Beehive […]

I realize that’s a potentially volatile title, but I’ll explain. I went up to the Salt Lake Business to Business Expo today. It was a well-put-together show, even if it didn’t have as much traffic as I had expected.
One thing that tops my pet peeve list for these shows is the number of freeloaders who […]

Good Day Utah? Good Things Utah? I feel like I’m walking into a women’s organization. Is a guy even allowed to watch something called “Good Things *blank*?” Now, to be honest, I usually don’t have much time for TV in the morning. Maybe that’s what they’re banking on: guys going off to work so the […]
