Jim was definitely not impressed but he said we would talk tomorrow. Eric seemed disappointed but I think if we can bump his retention from $50,000 to $75,000 per six months, I think I can get him over the hump. He is great value if we can get him for that.

People are moving from frustration to feeling insulted that they are expected to sit still with no information. I know you have a lot on your plate but if we really want people to hang in there a little longer before we address each individual's situation they need some sense of when they can expect closure.
