Dear Hot Tabasco,

“Business is business be it either Left or Right and ‘honest good will’ does not exist in the final profit line that determines whether a company will remain open or close down.”

Actually, good will is intrinsic to the survival of most companies. Honest good will. In fact, “good will” is so important to the well-being of companies that it actually has a financial and economic definition, and often is given value on the balance sheets of companies.

There aren't many companies that would last in our competitive economy that didn't have a significant reservoir of good will. “Honest good will” is what your customers give to you that makes them come back time after time. The loss of good will translates directly to the loss of business.

Maintaining good will is a principal task of the business manager.

I understand what you are saying but have to respectfully disagree.

I have posted my own personal experience ad nauseum here and I'm not going to do it any more. I will say this as my final statement, there is no "honest good will" in corporate America, it's dog eat dog and may God look out for you should you have had the misfortune of being at the bottom of the food chain by working in the closed manufacturing plants which ultimately fed the corporate managers..........
