Hey James,
What is most annoying is knowing that a company like KPMG, Aurther Andersen, etc., could have cranked through the filing process promptly and correctly for a reasonable fee the first time; while these nameless former SEC playbabies founder about in a sea of mediocrity and failures.
KPMG, AA, etc., have sufficient horsepower on staff to cover all the possible details required to achieve a successful filing the first time out. Instead we are all hamstrung by a group of bumbling has-beens, who may take four times to get through it all. Interesting that their names don't even rate honorable mention on the company website.
These "..whoever's.." are certainly mailing in weekly invoices for their ineffectual efforts - and, when the costs are all added up, they will have collectively cost more that one First Class performance by the real Pro's...... Of course, the Real Estate business has always been known for band-aid and spackle applications, followed by condo association lawsuits for substandard construction. Anything, to avoid actually doing it right the first time.
If it took that kind of repetitive effort to remove your appendix, my bet is that you'd be a malpractice client of Jerry Spence. And, "..Manana Mendez.."'s BS line, "...I'm not in the loop..." regarding the filings, which he has soft-soaped off on a number of callers, holds about as much water as a chef's flour sieve. Sad to think that Deng Shan is putting in his daily twelves over in China, attempting to make everybody rich, while the twiddlers in Newport Beach are pounding sand, and making excuses.
In the case of a building design-construct project, your career would bloody well be over - if the SOB fell down three times before you finally got it built.
"...I love it when a plan comes together...", but not when it's by default, as opposed to design.
Regards,
John :-) |
