agree
the worker bee types are just trenching tools...you use them until they break and once they break you throw them away and just get another one.
This outlook is so wrong on so many levels lol
However, it is historically accurate.
trueand whoosh on the satire, hilarious on the re-read.
Doss, please don't throw us into the trash and become a Xavier donor.

Only in Lake Wobegon is everyone above average. In the real world, half of any cohort is, by definition, below average.
Dedicated and/or talented worker bees can make a manager look better than he or she really is. Is it fair or right or even responsible behavior to disparage them or their contributions? I think not.

Agree 100%, assuming the comments further up in the thread aren't sarcasm. Not saying the worker bees are more important than managers, but a lot of lazy and/or mediocre managers and executives make tons of money off the backs of working class employees. Not everyone can be a superstar, but everyone can and should have an important role in society and the workplace.

Kyle Guy’s Dad played @ UC and Kyle grew up a UC fan.

I think he's asking about the next one when it happens, not Saunders.

Correct. Just trying to get back on topic.

Never said worker bees were not important, just saying I never lost sleep over losing one. Need to be concerned about a statistically meaning rate of losing worker bees.
Former GE head Jack Welch covered the subject well. And when Welch was at GE they were a powerhouse.

I hope he knows, the importance of the worker bees.

This narrative is so oversimplified.
He DEFINITELY went after 5 stars. He just couldn’t close the deal or keep the deal on the table long enough. He felt it was best to move on from the ones that didn’t have interest. Chad spoke of this himself on this board.
Apparently Mick also touched on this in USA Today.
RE: Another Dancing Bearcat - Lush - 06-13-2019 06:41 PM
i don't think kyle guy was a five star. maybe not even four star

He was a very high 4-star. 0.98 rating, ranked #37 in country. The type of player UC barely ever gets.
RE: Another Dancing Bearcat - Lush - 06-13-2019 07:43 PM
i stand corrected
RE: Another Dancing Bearcat - mptnstr@44 - 06-13-2019 08:05 PM
If Mick approached Kyle Guy and Kyle Guy said not interested then ok he tried.
If Mick decided to forego on Kyle Guy, without even checking with the kid, that's where I'd have a problem. You have to at least reach out to Guy to gauge interest because of his connections to UC. Guy was a highly ranked player who Mick might've had a shot at.
RE: Another Dancing Bearcat - gerhard911 - 06-13-2019 08:15 PM
Mick is gone. Can we please move on?

I do not believe Mick offered Guy...which seems like door #2 to me

I think Mick's conversation with Guy went something like this:
