Is it a good idea to hire a fuggin' plumber to fix your car?

Of course, THAT FACT probably had nothing to do with the demise of Hostess.

Right?

So you get to ask questions and I answer them but you don't answer mine? OK, you are not alone in those rules.
I take it you've never been a C level exec anywhere? It's not about the 'bakery industry'. It's about managing a retail goods manufacturing company. If the CEOs were coming up with new recipes and had never been in a kitchen before, you 'point' might have some merit.
But I concede. Blasted management strikes again. The unionistas are victims again... well... except for the union bosses of course. They win either way.
