Same as not having worked for them. No, it was enough for me to get the idea. Absolute mediocrity, both operations. I could write a book on how management incompetence takes a juggernaut and brings it to its knees. Perhaps you should do that.

Al, > I could write a book on how management incompetence takes a juggernaut and brings it to its knees. Or you could just read Harvard Business Review ... Tenchusatsu P.S. - Don't know why Harvard is on my mind these days. Maybe because of Obama ...

If you think that corporate managements are often incompetent, you should favor letting companies fail. Its something that can get rid of entrenched management and erase its mistakes. Bailing them out just perpetuates the incompetence and gets politicians involved, which compounds incompetence. One thing we know for sure is there is no corps of allwise government bureaucrats who can step in and run failing businesses. Let the market work and the less competent will in time fail and the more competent will rise in their place.
