He failed, of course, but mostly because I let HR know that he had been firing <I>all</I> the women in the office, one by one. Apparently, he was a radical Muslim and didn't believe women should be allowed in the workplace. Attrition has dropped a lot since then.Nokihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16856143453343678103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474304103076898115.post-6879109730933056482008-10-24T10:17:00.000-05:002008-10-24T10:17:00.000-05:00Hey John...thanks for coming by.

I had an occation to go to a training session at the Arkansas headquarters, and you would never know from looking at the building that it housed the main offices of the Profit Monster. A very simple building from which the rules are made and futures decided.<BR/><BR/>Like I said, working there was a learning experience and although I was glad to have the opportunity, I would never go back...even if I could.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again for dropping by...HermitJimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13631580830147175636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474304103076898115.post-78987043057828029462008-10-24T10:11:00.000-05:002008-10-24T10:11:00.000-05:00Hey Blondie...I had forgotten that you were victim...Hey Blondie...I had forgotten that you were victim of the corporate down-sizing epidemic.
