If you were impressed at the oratory of Barack Obama's acceptance speech, then I'd urge you to look to this week's Discussion Forum contribution from Road Rat in North Carolina. In a thread about what lies ahead, he writes that we can get through the current challenges. "Companies will be keeping their equipment longer and they will need repairs. Forklift dealers who are privately owned will have to tighten their belts and streamline their operations. This is a good time .. to build a good, productive team that is willing to look after the company they work for and forget this 'New Age' attitude of 'What can the company do for me?'". Good sentiments, Road Rat, and in the words of the President, "Yes, we can!". Check out the thread.
