But then, aren't we as guilty? I think so. I feel like sometimes we let things go, don’t ask question, because it’s just too hard, too much trouble for us to bother. But then, aren’t we as guilty?

Today I wish I had worked with you. We would have gotten along famously, because I, too, always asked questions. You learn from your questions, as do your co-workers. They come to appreciate your willingness to step up. I would counsel my co-workers: question each request as if your life depended on it. Do not be afraid to stand your ground for the betterment of your work ethic and the company. This past Sunday I watched 60 minutes. There was a segment about the mortgage/banking crisis...and I just kept thinking to myself why didn't any worker ask questions or write an anonymous letter. Button pushers...and now we find ourselves (all of us) touched by the results of greed and schemes. Judy Alli,
