He's one of the smartest men I've ever met... he probably brings 80% of the business into our firm through his contacts who recognize him as an ethical individual, who knows what he's talking about, in an industry flooded with crooked bull-shit producers.
I could draw a quick conclusion on the basis of this post and the responses to it, that nobody likes this employment equity crap. I wonder where it came from?
