So, you want the truth. You're damn right I want the truth! OK, here's the truth. The truth is. You can't handle the truth. THAT'S THE TRUTH? THE TRUTH IS, WE CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH? Yes. Well said, by the way. I just repeated what you said. So you did. Less

Every answer depends upon the corporate goals, generally. You can't budget for what needs to be done until you see what needs to be accomplished and in what time frame. However, knowing the company's goals is not what is truly essential. Essential knowledge is to know the DREAMS of the company's leaders. Less
