Neglect and freedom feel the same.  Just keep your chute packed.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">jason</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 25 Aug 2008 19:42:54 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: how the bottom line is destroying companies</title><link>http://www.bripblap.com/2008/the-bottom-line-is-destroying-companies/#comment-1830042</link><description>I definitely feel the same way.  My company just took away many of the decent benefits we had for traveling (and yes we all have to travel coach).
