The problem is, it is accountants calling the shots.

The problem with bean counters is.... They can only count beans.
I do really feel for the guys, the region that I commented on are loosing 3 of 16 guys. I can say that I personally know every single one of them, and the ones that were made redundant in the stealth redundancies over the last couple of years, including one that commited suicide shortly after loosing his job.
