HF, the biggest problem is the intransigence of those in BASSA who believe that everyone else in the company needs to change except them.
The time has come for BASSA to accept that change has to come and the protected empires of the senior LH CC is about to crumble, possibly for the good of the more junior members. Instead of blaming each and every other department for taking the time and effort to negotiate a change they should concentrate on negotiating an acceptable position for their members.
