52. These days...since Reagan...if you had or have a soul you are culled early or in Middle Management.
Edited on Tue Sep-27-11 06:12 PM by KoKo
if you aren't or weren't a "Team Player" Code Word for...meaning you didn't look for ways to cook the books, look for the other easy ways (borderline crooked) that would promote your career, spend time shmoozing the boss and toadying to the the CEO,CFO and COO and in general flacking for the United Fund or the personal fave Charity of the Boss.

Yes...there are Corporate Democrats ...but the ones who rise to the top...didn't talk that way (in most cases of the big ones you'd know) until they made it up there and they were very careful how they got there..
