What can I say, glad I was lucky enough to be able to leave on my own terms. If there is anything I have reaffirmed to myself after working for that company, it's that having faith in "successful" individuals just because they are seemingly successful brings no guarantees of success. Only a TRUE team with good communication working consistently on the same page can weather storms. In my time with them, they've never managed that. Despite the best efforts of the good people they did have. Well, I don’t think there are too many components binding anything over there any longer.

Due to lack of foresight, the powers that stand silent could loose more than their long term projection, they could loose the components that binds what is left of their endeavours. Heh, heh... it was late for me too when I posted this diatribe. I guess, "go with the flow," works best for me, as long as I'm not late. It sums up everything from the current atmosphere around work. :) Well, communication seems to be the common denominator that either makes or breaks a good relationship, especially in the workplace.

It sounds like you are in the eye of the hurricane where it is the most calm. Another expression - Watch and Learn. How about - Go with the Flow. Hey - it's late - what can I say (LOL). The thing I dislike about change is change. But it is inevitable. Things are always changing but when it's about cash flow then it is even more stressful. Looking back I find for myself that things somehow have a way of working themselves out and even getting better than they were before. Sounds like dribble but I've been there. Take it easy - here's another one - Don't worry, be happy. Take care. Gudrun Hey Tom
