This management claims their team is among the best - so their business model is defective, isn't it.

Elaine, You are nothing more than a troll.

@6 Go and boast somewhere else. You won't impress anyone here. You can't get the affirmation you crave here. It is just a message board.

As I said, you are neither rich or powerful. If you were you wouldn't be here trying to prove that you are.

@10 You miss the meaning again but nothing you write is original or profound. It takes seconds to digest and even less time to refute.

You lost your credibility here, Sleazyboy.
