Dear Evil HR Lady, I would like an insider like yourself to answer this instead of getting my info from crazy internet conspiracy theorists.

Do you know of anyone who could entertain that kind of opportunity AND pass the UNICRU test honestly?

'According to a recent survey, 25% of supervisors are younger than the people they supervise. That’s not really surprising given that not everyone over, say, 40 is a supervisor and someone has to be managing all these people. It’s also not surprising that we see a large volume of blog traffic on the topic of young managers, managing older workers and dealing with generation gaps in the workforce.

Drucker got it wrong. Drucker famously wrote that “ the purpose of business is to create and keep a customer. ” I’m as much a fan of Drucker’s as any management scholar, but I have to part ways with him here. The purpose of business is NOT to create or to keep a customer. Certainly it is an objective, even THE primary objective of business. If a business can not create or keep customers, then soon there is no business.

It is very spread out, forcing attendees to rely heavily on cab rides to get around town. Further, the cab drivers we had were very unfamiliar with the city, and at least 3 times I had to search my smartphone for the address, and even had to enter one address into the cab driver''s GPS.
