Testing The Hypothesis

5 Interviews for testing Hypothesis

1. For my first interview, I decided to interview a fellow college undergraduate that I previously did not know. I decided to interview mark, a freshmen from Chicago. Mark says that he first say everyone "Juuling" when he came to school here for the fall, but has never tried it. Mark explains that he doesn't smoke anything because of lung cancer prone family genes, so he doesn't smoke anything. By not smoking anything, Mark is not affected by the shortage of Juul pods and flavors, that I based my economic opportunity on. Mark, who is also a freshmen student at the university of Florida, shows that not all college students from this age have the need for Juul Pods and flavors. 
2. For my second interview on my economic opportunity, I decided to interview a worker at Moe's on the University of Florida Campus. I decided to interview a working adult, and see how their needs compare to those that I based my economic need on. I decided to interview, Andrew, a junior at the university of Florida, who works part time at Moe's. Andrew explained to me that he also does not have this need for more Juul pods and flavors, because he does not Juul for economic reasons. Andrew tells me that every dollar he needs to pay for his college, so he doesn't spend money on extra things like Juul Pods. Andrews interview shows me that their can be many reasons why the need, that I based my economic need of, doesn't apply to certain people, like Andrew because of economic reasons.
3. I decided to conduct my third interview on the oldest house dad in my fraternity, Larry has just turned 92 years old. I decided to interview an elder of society to see how this need for more Juul pods varies among age. Larry has no idea what a Juul is or what "Juuling" is, and therefore, sees no shortage of Juul pods in Gainesville. Larry's interview showed me how age plays a huge part in the need that I based my economic need of. It proves to me that the need I based my economic opportunity is limited by age.
4. My fourth interview I wanted to see how my need was affected by gender, so I interviewed a freshmen girl at the university of Florida. I started off my interview with Marci, by asking her when the first time she say people using the Juul was and if she Juuls. Marci said " I first saw people start Juuling over summer b, my first semester at UF, I never tried out a Juul until my fall semester at UF." Marci describes the feeling that the Juul gives her as a "Nauseous" feeling and says she hasn't used it since she tried it. Marci's interview shows me that another thing that my need is based on is preference, and how a lot of people do not like to use a Juul.
5. For my final interview, I decided to interview a front runner for the UF student body president election, my brother Ian Green. Ian green is a engineering student currently in his senior year at UF, who I thought was perfect for my final interview. Ian says that " I've been at UF for 4 years now, but I've just started seeing everyone use the Juul." He says " I personally have never tried a Juul, and see no reason to try it out." Ian is a current college student that does not Juul, but not because of financial, or health reasons, just because he doesn't see the point in it. Ian's interview proves that some college students decided to not use a Juul just because, and that the need I based my economic opportunity of, does not apply to all college students.

My 5 interviews to continue testing my economic opportunity hypothesis, proved to me that their is a big population of humans to which this need does not apply. My interviews ranging from different ages, gender, races and degrees , prove that their is a large party of people to which my need does not apply to, and not just by age, or gender, but of all college students. These people share a lot in common with the people I interviewed in my last hypothesis, but these interviews showed that my need is very much based on personal wants and needs, not one specific group of people. The main difference from people who have my need, and do not, is if that person uses the Juul or not.  The need that I realized from the shortage of Juul pods, is different from the need of Juuls not breaking or pods not working. The underlying cause that makes people have this need or not, is if they currently use a Juul.
Inside the Boundary

1. Every person that uses nicotine or smokes, especially college students, is in the boundary of this need.
2. The need is for their to be more availability of Juul pods, and flavors around college campuses.
3. This need exists because of the huge uptrend in popularity among college students that use a Juul.

Outside the Boundary

1. Every person that does not use nicotine, or smoke, or the Juul does not have this need, and therefore is outside the boundary of the need.
2. The need is not the need to be able to fix Juuls, and or their pods, and it is not in buying the Juul but the pods and availability of them.
3. Based on health, financial or personal choices some people decided to never try or use a Juul in their life.
