Thanks, John. Sometimes simple is best. It works in soccer...why not with communication?

Careful with statistics, Frank . . .
While the "payroll" for Boston finally came through (having to win the final three games to do it), they're now going to face the team with the 25th highest payroll (out of 30 teams) -- a team that has won 21 of 22 straight games.
Meanwhile, the team with the highest payroll (almost as much as the Sox and the Rox combined) bombed out in the first series, and then fired the manager with the highest salary of all managers in baseball.
It's a cruel world sometimes. :-)

Good post, Frank. I faced a similar situation before signing on for a stint in London several years ago. What saved me was getting the company's agreement to a fixed amount in Sterling that I would receive, after taxes.
