Focus on profit to the exclusion of all other factors is a very dangerous thing. That's why corporate success stories include references to their workers, mid-managers, etc.,; the people who actually come up with the ideas to improve the Company's operations.

But since you think all workers are merely ciphers on a spreadsheet, you might not get that concept, Erik.

If a company focuses on profit only, then they will lose workers and decay into oblivion. A company has to retain people with ideas, but it also has to get rid of the dead weight and hire new people with new ideas.

Hence, people are a resource.
