what is the purpose of a job training
I'm not saying I don't like the idea of on-the-job training too, but you can't expect the company to do that. Training workers is not their job - they're building software. Perhaps educational systems in the U.S. (or their students) should worry a little about getting marketable skills in exchange for their massive inv...
Leadership training is an ever-evolving concept, which is filled with relevant strategies and plans. The training could prove handy in evaluating the potential of new projects and opportunities of the company, which can debar one from facing losses in the business. Leadership training is basically a development oriente...

We also have for-profit, career-oriented schools which take advantage of students and get them to pay for training that used to be done on the job.

Regulation D helps regulate the amount of money a financial institution has on hand at any particular time. Savings accounts are not factored into that. Because of that, there has to be a limit on how many withdrawals can occur in order to keep proper classification on the number of transactions.

"A DCF includes changes in working capital which is a source or use of cash. I also don't like your characterization of enterprise value as ""cashless"" because it's also ""debtless"". It's capital structure independent -- just like a DCF is. **That's the common theme.**"

Samsung tried making smaller screens with the Galaxy S2 Mini and the Mini S3. They had iPhone sized screens compared to their larger main lines.

I don't understand the hubbub about qwikster. Netflix wants to move in the direction of streaming only and they should. I don't even have a dvd player hooked up to my tv anymore.

So you asked him in 2010 how he was gong to compete with DVD rental distributors like Netflix (which is what Netflix primarily was at the time) and Lovefilm and you were surprised that he was he said they were going to continue to compete as a DVD rental distributor just like the mentioned competitors?
Cool. I used Netflix for awhile and liked it also. I stopped using it because the DVD content was limited. Also I can't run their app's on linux. So I can't do the streaming. Anyway $10/month beats my comcast bill of $100/mo for cable.

20.8% of the market isn't anywhere close to a monopoly. I understand that it's over twice as much as their nearest competition, but there is still a lot of competition. Eh, but perhaps my definition of a monopoly is skewed by, you know, historical examples like Standard Oil and AT&T.
