The new job has provided a good insight on the pulse of manufacturing in small to medium sized business'.

Not only are they getting leaner and meaner, but are networking and getting stronger to keep the amoeba of larger corporations away from gobbling them up.

So thumbs up on crossing boundaries, building consensus, unifying market share while preserving jobs, customer service, and quality.

I've met a lot of great small business owners and support staff who refuse to rollover and sell out for a bronze parachute of regret down the road.
