But it will never change, all the companies are as good or as bad as each other. Untill such time as "locals" learn from he bottom up (no pun intended), respect staff with knowledge, and when they do arrive in their office, dont just lock the door, and wait till 4pm to go home, having arrived at 11am. Hands on management with knowledge will always win. Respect the workers who are working with you, and respect their knowledge, after all mostly they have been there and got the T shirt.

I know PP is at its best slinging virtual mud, but please lets hear something good. That does not include "I actually got paid this month", type postings.
