Low Barriers Are A Good Thing

I don't necessarily disagree with the thesis of this post, but this seems a bit of a tangent. Was Calcanis really advocating the French model? More than likely he was just venting over high turnover.

When there's high turn over at a company, it's almost always the fault of management. There's a great Russian proverb: don't blame the mirror if your face is ugly. When your employees are leaving after a few months, the one at fault is you, not professionals in other companies staying a few years on the job.

Yes. Calacanis may have just been an excuse. More than likely Gary was just venting over the French model :)
