The analyst that prepares the numbers, the manager that approves it, and the assistant superintendent (MM) who wants to make sure she has something to manipulate come Fall. She lives for it!

Of course Marla will ride the bulls tail and continue pulling the hide over the eyes and weeee she will go! It makes no difference to her who is in charge she thinks and behaves as if she is and will continue to do so until the bull throws her off!

There's no market to compete for, no bottom line, in a profit/loss sense, to be responsible to and our "customers", for the most part, have nowhere else to go. These conditions can lead to this kind game playing, turfism, and power plays among a bored and underinspired mid/upper management.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
