To 'Ah well , Wednesday 2/20/13' - AMEN, thanks for telling it like it is.
Doug Cooper - "technical chops" - WTF? Gimme an effing break. Can you say ZERO talent? Ditto for 'cring'. People like these are LOUD, ANNOYING BSers whom upper management LOVES. The artists and tech folks on the other hand know the truth. And why is no one talking about the Waste of $$$ 'Training' 'Department'? The blonde down south and redhead up north know enough to teach artists? GIMME A BREAK. Shut down the whole department at both locations, save $$$ (start with Barb C, the biggest waste of all).
