but not actually done. And that's the point. In my business we have people who write documents and manage projects. And we have clients who oversee, review and study the projects we manage and the reports we write. And yet those times when they leave industry for consulting and find themselves having to actually do the work versus overseeing, reviewing and studying they more often fail than succeed. It just isn't the same thing and the doing is always more difficult, more complex and more challenging than those that oversee, review and study could ever imagine....until they try it anyway. Then they get a whole new appreciation for what we do and slink back to industry where they can once again oversee, review and study to their hearts content. In the meantime the rest of us that can, do.

Hound, I am quite sure you know a lot of business principles and have some very well educated ideas about what businesses should and should not do but you don't really know business until you have make a payroll, pay the lawyer because someone is suing you, manage accounts payable and accounts receivable, deal with human resources on awful laws like HIPPA, pay tens of thousands of dollars a year to accountants to do your taxes because they are incomprehensible to the layman, etc., etc.

And I say "make" a payroll, not just push a button that gets someone paid. I mean making sure you have the cash in the bank to not only pay them their salary but also the taxes, insurance and other costs that come along with each employee. Hound, I don't expect you to understand any of this but in the future think about it before you tell us who are actually out there on the front lines of business what we ought to be doing or what some new law means to us.
