flipper44,
No harm,no foul. Crash is just frustrated with those who have lots of issues with management and was writing like I talk sometimes in addressing a larger group and not directly responding to the one originally being addressed. The management discourse is easy to get wrong without seeing and knowing what they do and Crash thinks they deserve the benefit of the doubt. Others draw from their own ownership/management experiences and see some flaws. The discussion can be valid if tossing out the obvious over statements and taking honest looks at given situations. I think sentiment_stocks and others have done a great job in the past looking at specific accusations and defending in support of management. In the big picture I see there is a lot more benefit coming from management than harm done in the interim. That put me in the benefit of the doubt camp and I don’t see Crash’s comment as directed toward me. I’ve been a small business owner and others in my family have owned much bigger businesses that have gone through growing pains and need for financing so there is some empathy. Thanks for the support though. Now as to the kilt question that came out of this, I guess I should look up where to get some for a family picture too; ). Best wishes.
