I'm done with the corporate thing - had some great years - really excelled at sales and margins but very frustrated by the corporate mindset who always seem to shoot themselves in the foot by trying to make decisions without input from the field and in the process mucks things up for the foot soldiers. Anyway - I've owned my own business since 2001 and never looked back....I know it's not for everyone but if you can be the captain of your own ship you should be. I'm thankful for all I learned in the corporate world and use that knowledge every day. But it's so nice not to have the politics to deal with anymore....
