Leaving On a Jet Plane: How To Abandon Those Who Matter Most

You know, sometimes you have to make unpopular decisions to make good business decisions. I am not a fan of all the crap on our shelves, or the "new" Frappuccinos, or the flavored coffee. We're now doing lots of things Howard swore we would never do. But...I make fairly good money for doing a fairly easy job, I have a benefit package other people envy me for, I get three weeks of paid vacation a year and haven't paid for coffee in years. In the grand scheme of things, I can accept a little change.
