In Reply To: My biggest worry for the new year is workplace violence. There are a lot of very angry people and some of them freak me out. I just hope we don't make news for the wrong reason. No matter what department you're in it seems there's a high frustration level and people seem to be more touchy than ever. Other concerns for 2006. A sale is four years closer to happening. Might be even closer based on what we're hearing about possible buyers. I still think an earlier posting about a Merrill buy is right on track given the kind of money they have and O'Neal's interest in acquisitions. And the other ongoing concern for '06 is the decline in morale. I've only been with this company for about 2 years and the spirit has changed greatly.
Message: Well 2006 has seen a number of old Stalwarths getting a massive demotion! How long will many hold out once Certs are paid? Many of these guys have given more than just their time to BBG but only to have a cusstard pie planted in their faces. Lets hope for a speedy departure of Lex who must be on the slow conveyor belt out of BBG but at least it will give the Purple Bald-one time to spend conversing with his Architect & Project Manager on the Horse's Head project (many can only hope)
