Good morning,

I like what you are putting out. As someone whose current job involves cooking, we often find creative ways to stretch our ingredients and/or make products with them. Ultimately it's about aspiring to be frugal and efficient to reach effectiveness (a profit). I encourage my team to learn the black and white, then play in the gray.

When I worked for a global retailer. There were very few things that were not thought of. That made it difficult to improve the system (a common tactic bosses take to provide validation for promoting their people).

The more education I receive AND reading I do; I find there really aren't very many original ideas. There are only people putting their spin on them. A lot of times (not always) this is merely due to greed and delusion (that they think they're unique).

Thank you for your time.

I've been following your comments here for a little while, Joe.

Saw when you were contemplating a transition.

Good to see you navigated the switch ok. Hope you're enjoying your new position.

Great perspective. I think in the cash strapped public and charitable sectors we’re getting more and more adept at ingredients stretching!
