To All,
Yes there are companies that do it right and wrong. We all know these things happen. I am going to be a bit of a romantic here. What about the people? Too many Managers forget the responsibilities to their employees, customers, and vendors. A lot of bad decisions had to be made before a company closes or even starts to face income problems like that. Whatever happened to good old fashion American integrity? Our country was built by it, and the lack of it will tear us apart. As Managers / Owners we are responsible for the people we hire and their respective families. Remember that the next time you hire someone. Ask yourself the question, are they disposable labor? When you take on a new customer, can you keep the promises you make? When you represent a manufacturer, are you doing the very best to bring them to market and support the product you sell? Some of the old ways of doing things were not bad they just required effort.
