    I'm having a cultural disconnect with my mid-western boss. From what I've heard, our cultural rift is only slightly smaller than yours.

      Did you try kicking him in the nads?

        I've heard that does wonders for improving mid-westerners....

              Samsung was sold off, it's now technically part of Renault.

              Ssangyong was purchased by Daewoo.

              Daewoo, i believe, is now going to part of GM's stable.

              The only korean automanufac that survived was Hyundai, which also owns Kia.

                Sneakster's boss is a typical Stage I manager. Faceless corporations belong to Stage II. Stage III started fifty years ago...
