So, Mr. Big Dog, if you feel that you have a right to have such control over another's performance, how would people ensure that they receive "appropriate service" from you?

I'm sure, like myself and most other salaried employees, a significant chunk of his total compensation comes from variable compensation - which is based on performance.

Well that is judged or determined from within the Corporation, and based on gross revenues, or activities as a whole, and not on one client/interaction/incident. What about the clients he works with directly? How would they have similar control over his income, such that he feels it appropriate to have over a food server?

Having fun comparing apples and oranges? Compensation and incentive systems work differently in different industries as they do at different job levels within the same industries. I thought you were aware of that.

I'm not really comparing "apples" and "oranges", Mr. Big Dog. ( And by the way, why is it I am now thinking your moniker suits you well) Now, why would incentive systems work differently?

Yes you are comparing apples and oranges. Which, of course, you may not be able to realize as it appears that you are not even aware that there are a number of different incentive systems out there.

How arrogant of you to determine that I, (who, by the way, is much more experienced than you are) am not intimately familiar with business models! Of course I'm aware that there are different incentive systems. The point I'm making is aren't they designed to achieve the same result?

That's not the point you have been making. Maybe you were still in the process of trying to make the point. Oh, and how arrogant of you to claim to be much more experienced than me.

Big Dog,

If memory serves me correctly you posted on VJ some facts related to the industry you are in and your job. Now, since I know what it is that you do, I can very well say what I did. I'm not one to share personal information, in fact, my near three year tenure here can prove that , having disclosed little in the way of information that would lend insight into why I am a member of VJ. However, if it is of such importance to you, I'll admit that I'm CEO and Chrmn of the Bd of a rather sizeable Corporation and have been for several decades. Most likely for longer than you've been drinking carbonated beverages or caffeine. (Not that it matters, of course, but I object to someone so wet behind the ears telling me all about business).
