I am satisfied about how things are transpiring and support management.

I thought surely I would have to go back more than a week to find this sort of quote. Of course we've all seen the scores of posts where he affirms that he "strongly supports management." Why anyone would support a management team with what could charitably be called an abysmal track record is anyone's guess. I mentioned once a while back that he reminds me of people I know who rub shoulders with someone once and spin that into being some sort of confident, some sort of insider. It's a pathology, I suppose, no different from constantly being a contrarian. It's probably two sides of the same coin.

And now the new theme is to rail against the one guy who is willing to share with us his efforts to do something about this fiasco. There are a number of factions here in Panama and elsewhere who are organizing to give Mr Fifer all the time he needs to improve the food at his restaurant. GI is willing to share with us some aspects of his (very real) efforts to do the same. Many of us are deeply appreciative both of the effort and of the aim. A few are happy to ridicule him. That's too bad.

The mockers are going to find themselves on the wrong side of history one way or another. Either the company will go bankrupt on the backs of this "strongly supported" management team or those responsible for this disaster will be replaced and held accountable and the company will thus be given an opportunity once again to grow. Those really are the only two options.
