Accountability from my 'Marketing Department' head honcho

Do you have that one tucked in with your snuff videos? Pars

The point being, and I've made it before, again and again, issues are what is interesting to discuss, differing ideas are important to compare and evaluate, farmer comparisons are useful in making decisions.

AV is a wonderful opportunity to come together as farmers, if it is self- deregulated from gossip. Making fun of what people wear, or how they look with a moustache, a beard or bald, or criticizing what kind of house a farmer lives in, or how they dress, is a way out to lash out at what you don't want to argue for, and that's when issues become demoted, and our minds get stuck, lacking the cleats that dig in to figure out how to improve our standard of living.

That being said, mustard, I must explore the world a little more, and buy the CD you reference. lol I have much to learn and miles to go before I sleep. Parsley

girls and you know who i am talking about. I had 60,000plus of barley that didn'tquite meet barley spec.s. Canada malt ageed to take it. Because I have been a good customer for 5 years. They would take it. The board would not give a contract. In their infiniite thinking would erode the integity of the pool.
What a bunch of crap. I have barley that an user wants to buy and board stands in my way.
Screw the CWB.

1. How about all cases like yours sending their confidential info to one party they trust. Decide on a person/co-ordinator.
2. The Co-ordinator sets days in Winnipeg for rotating media interviews.

3. On each specific day, 6 farmers would attend and give intervies.

4. Take place on the CWB strps

5. Format prepared..the farmer could speak or have someone standing beside him to speak for him

6. This is bullshit to have a Board of Directors who's only concern is to look good. Pars

Jackflash the CWB does not grade grain. Either someone is giving you a line of BS or you are BSing to make a point.

[JACKFLASH]

Why would I do that. You should have been standing beside me at Agribition at the CWB booth.

stubblejumper,

Just face it... the pool accounts are the problem at the CWB. The contingency fund is just another pool account... being used to feed the real pool accounts.

Instead of being responsible business managers... CWB senior managers are hanging down by the seat of their pants... not using good risk management... and instead leaving us as growers holding that bag.

It is called Doing it the LAZY WAY... JUST LIKE ENRON AND WORLDCOM DID.

mAKE UP THE FACTS AS YOU GO... AND MAKE SURE THERE IS NO TRANSPARENCY OR INTEGRETY...
AND
ALWAYS...
ALWAYS HAVE A SCAPEGOAT TO BLAME WHEN THINGS GO SOUTH... WHICH IS MORE OFTEN THAN NOT!!!
