“…It (process improvement implementation) was one of the toughest things that I have done in my professional career but ( ) it was the best thing that I’ve done for myself and staff. We are still making changes J You, Bruce and Tania are not going to believe it ( I still can’t ;-) but we have NO data to enter…all of our data that was sooooooo backed and piled up is gone. I still can’t believe it. I knew this would make you guys smile…we were about 3 months behind maybe even more than that.”
