   Majority of the mismanagement occured right after Jack left.   
      
   That is normal corporate conditions at the time in highly competitive   
   environment. I didn't say it wasn't harsh but it was that harshness that   
   driven the employees to do what they did. Classic way to drive employees to   
   show there magic and push the employees to do there best talents. Come up   
   with innovative ways to do things.   
      
   What would have driven them if there wasn't that pressure.
