Back again!

I hadn't realized that it has been so long since I last posted. You KNOW that whatever I've said is not the last word on the pathetic management that plagues all US companies.

But all is not doom and gloom, there are the bright spots, those managers that know the meaning of the word integrity, well, those that know that integrity does not equal greed. While the capitalist system is the best we have, because people will strive to do better with a reward, there are and will always be abuses. History has shown, however, that these abuses do not last forever. Take the oil cartel, for example. The Arab countries came together out of greed and every time they make a concerted effort to gobble down more cash from the infidel countries, one of their own will stab them in the back, again from greed, wanting more that the share the cartel has given them.

What greedy managers have fighting against them are other greedy managers. Oh, sure, we end up with some companies with 'old boys' clubs' where they all cooperate to suck the company dry. In the end, however, market forces work against them. Without effort from the upper management of a company, any endeavor will slowly--or not so slowly--die off. While this is unfortunate for the workers at that company, they, the workers, really have to vote with their feet where employment is concerned. As the good, honest workers see problems around them, they leave for other companies, leaving a bloated hiearchy teetering on top of a shrinking mass of increasingly incompetent workers. Why incompetent? Because good workers will always find another job at good pay, the incompetent remain simply because they know they cannot get the same pay at another company.

Oh, well, it's back to work here again. I'll post again soon, but in the meantime, Merry Christmas to you all.

Yeah, screw the crap with 'happy holidays'. Don't expect politically correct here......
