Simpson,
Thanks again for taking the time to answer those, granted, not being in a business environment, haha. While I have no business acument whatsoever, I understand that there is exponentially more to it and, unless you're behind the scenes, DD can only get you so far.
I do take comfort in knowing that there are people within the company who realize what's going on and that it's not good. One can only hope that the change of command ceremony happens sooner vice later.
