schestowitz[TR2]Other than demanding some backwater upskilling which takes most people nowhere but to the AI (All Indians) Layoff zone, maybe someone can explain why Krabanaugh the lapdog doesn't even take any classes. For a leader, he is the perfect role model and example of what not to be as a pathetic and incompetent executive. Is he past taking education related classes or does he just pretend he is too busy and the classes don't work for someMay 16 03:59

schestowitz[TR2]20+ years and still going strong. Needs to play the politics to survive the MS game and even get the promoted a few times after many layoffs' cycles. Why work when you can cruise. Work smarter and not harder. If I am ever out, my bank account is fat, in great shape from daily gym and relaxing routines. Don't sell your health out for money.May 16 04:06
