I rememeber a story of a visitor at a plant somewhere lost - and asking an
old man cleaning a closet for directions - the old man turned out to be Bill
Hewlett - the common thread with Bill & Dave was humility...

You know what seems common today is large corporations nickle and diming
customers and seeing how they can get more money by charging for things that
used to be free - at least the utilities and financial institutions.

And of course while all nickle and dime the consumers the CEOs get paid
millions for jobs done well - or not so well. That's what really irks me.
How much did they have to pay Carley to go away?

BRING BACK THE DONUTS
