Hello Jim,

until of course there is a real disaster and somebody like Larry or me shows up to recover the box. Then the boss listens much better......

As almost always. This is a pattern throughout humanity. At least in highly developed countries, where the one and only matter which counts is money, and nothing else. Next on the list is (public) reputation. Some people never listen and always wait until the "told you so" kicks in. By then it's too late, money or reputation has been lost and *then* some of them listen.

Even children have that behavior. Don't touch the hearth, it's hot! Aaaaah, I burned my hand… I wonder what a proper psychologist has to say about this pattern. ;-)

:wq! PoC
