To clarify, Remedy was acquired by a company that had huge problems. AThe parent company initiated the crisis, not Remedy. Remedy continued to perform as a great company that put people level with profits, and as a result, remained robust. It wasn't long until they were once again sold to a much more solid company. Haines and Barbara,

You mention Remedy as failing and being delisted. Then you go on to say that they were a great company -- putting employees on equal level with profits etc. Please clarify.

I'm reminded of a lady I met who was a vital employee in a small marketing firm. She had fantastic pay and very flexible hours which accomodated some school schedule issues with her children. She told me she was leaving the company, however, for one reason - she didn't feel appreciated. Wow. Of course, money is important to all of us but over the long haul folks need to know that they have a recognized and important role on the team. How will they know if we don't communicate that to them. Amen? Cindy…thanks for the reminder that PEOPLE are a company’s most valuable asset.
