When Systems Walk Out the Door
My wife Susan and I had lunch last week with a couple from our church—I’ll call them Gary and Michelle. While waiting for our Panera Bread sandwiches, Michelle shared with us that she had just been laid off from her job. For the past 14 years, she had been working at the top level in telecommunications, recently with a company that does business with the medical industry. It was logical to assume this type of company would be well-organized, with very sophisticated standards of operation.
