>Sounds like you need a few less schizophrenic company executives. Maybe less multiple personalities and more actual personalities. :)

Hey, I've got LOTS of actual personalities - at least 5 at last count. Consultant, Mom, Wife...............

>If/when i become a consultant, i'll have to make a point of enlightening the client about the tradeoff between "quick release" and "quality release" (In the end, it costs the same in time/money AND headache)

You're ALMOST right: In the end the time/money are the same, but the headaches on all sides (not to mention the ulcers) are MUCH reduced if you go the "Quality" route.
