[QUOTE="jakeman, post: 4172933, member: 10690"] I wish it had only been one. For the first 10 years of my professional career I didn’t fire any customers. Not ‘cause they didn’t need it, but because I was too gutless to do it. The last 28 years I fired a bunch of them. Every one of them had it coming, and me and my employer were better for them being gone. It takes a while to gain the confidence and the sac to pull the trigger. There were some in that first 10 years that deserved it, I was just too green to launch them. Thought we needed the revenue. I was young, and wrong. There were several that mistook my sunny disposition and amiable nature for weakness. It was always refreshing when it was over and done. The customer isn’t always right. I’ve got an archived article that addresses this somewhere. I’ll try to find it. Musk was absolutely right. History will be on his side. [/QUOTE]
