[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I once heard a  Jack Welch/Jamie Dimon type CEO speaking. They said all the same thing it is really only one question who is a great employee you want by your side.

Would you share a Foxhole with them? I think it is true.

In a Foxhole in WWII at night one man faces one way with a rifle the other man faces other way with a rifle. It is all night you cant turn around to see if other is awake and alert. You cant speak as might get shot by enemy if they hear you.

So you spend entire night in a hole knowing if guy behind you falls asleep, is not alert, is a bad shot you are both dead. He gets shot then you get shot in back.

Literally the other man has your back. You made it clear you have no place in a Foxhole.

When times get tough they know where you stand and you will be first to go.     [/quote]

The face that anyone thinks some worthless PowerPoint updates is comparable to staying alive in war is absolutely insane.[/quote]

Could be more important. Look at Financial Crisis in 2008 hundreds of thousands of jobs lost because someone did a PowerPoint to do a risk business move that no one checked and was approved. Guess someone was on vacation.  [/quote]
