This remind me that business is pure gamble, and business people is bad gambler. They want to play but do not want to lose and if they lose they want to blame somebody.
Managing ego and heart is harder than managing a project i think.

haha, I love this guy..
Asking for efficiency and adaptability in the same program is like asking for a beautiful and modest wife. Although beauty and modesty have been known to occur in the same woman, we'll probably have to settle for one or the other. At least that's better than neither.
A surprising number of people in business think this way: not that they need to make sure of something, but just that they need someone to tell them everything will be OK, and then put the blame on if anyone is unhappy. That someone will naturally be whoever is at the bottom of the totem pole.
