You think because you are older than most of the people on this board that you are smarter. The fact is you are just older.
You don't know if I shot crack whores. Then what are you doing posting on a porn professionals board? Serious question because it's obvious they were not. Plus given the fact you run this big business outside porn with all these employees I would imagine bothering with porn was a waste of time for you. Or is that my addled brain coming to the wrong conclusion. Or you bullshitting us?

The plant we are moving in had 1100 employees at one time.

I think one of the larger issues facing the board of directors of large corporations is the unyielding demand to create profits so the shareholders get their dividends.
Then get off GFY and look after your core business.

Then employees like you need to pay more for all the workers and stop outsourcing to the Third World so more people can have a job. Then everyone like you can shop at Neiman Marcus.
