Not at all...it is the manager who WANTS that person that must know how to
make the person who he wants different than the rest. Take the person out of
the 1% and make him a singular case.
Every corporate policy can be circumvented. I did it today with the policy
about personal-owned software on company assets. I had to justify it, I had
to convince the VP_HR that it was in their best interest to allow me to use
my copy of FM on their HW...this was against their hard-fast rule.

You're right.
So, it should give up on each and every one for a
$10,000 disconnect? I suppose it must . . .. See,
that's why I'm not good at this. I don't see that
paying one guy that $10k requires you pay it in the
other 99 instances, or that denying it in one instance
requires the denial in the other cases . . ..
Cheers,
Sean
