What sends companies down the toilet. Forces that buffet include the winds of change, the market, and competition. The company has real trouble. Don't get the crazy idea you're going home at five o'clock. What management thinks employees have.

A person fired by the company for incompetence who is then brought back at twice the pay to do what he or she couldn't do when employed by the company. An expert who can identify real problems, charge enormous fees, and deliver presentations that tell you you have the problem, all right. The hallmarks of the way a company works. A group of people who are all alike. The way you tell a 200-pound woman not to wear shorts.
