Yeah, that's pretty complicated for us...

That was simple and beautiful. I wish most people get the "company finds more benefit in new solution than supporting local economy because of greedy execs/investors unhappy with profits not rising". Thanks for keeping it simple.

Hey, greed & unattainable goals are what makes the business world turn... or at least that's what they tell us in my mba classes.

Teach them that their job is an entitlement that is owed to them and they have the right to spend the day surfing the web and posting on Chiefs Planet?

Do an image search on "Khajuraho". I went there in the late 80s on vacation. Las Vegas could learn some lessons from the temples of Khajuraho.

Actually, I was reading an interesting article about this very subject today. It was called "India Vs. Indiana." Quite a Catch-22. Check it out here:

Not sure if it's in his book word for word or not, but he had an article in the NY Times about a trip to India that made him realize the world was flat... it was a great analysis of the last 20 years or so on basically how America created this tiny world and is now suffering the affects because while we're content & arrogant, people in India who couldn't connect 10 years ago are taking advantage of it now.... Good stuff.

I'd only speak piglatin, so the person might know what its like to deal with them.

No way, would I work my ass off, to train the forced replacement.

His first task would be "format C:"
