Thank you justice4 for the reading and responding. Yes, I agree that there are those who are only interested in the money, but they are generally to be found at the investment level (shareholders, in particular). At the top and middle management levels, the mission is the goal, otherwise the company fails and they lose their livelihoods. There are all kinds of personal self-interests, I guess! :) Thank for the encouragement - I just got on today and probably screwed up formatting my first post. I'll be following you, as well!
