| Attitude | 'Don't ask me, it's not mine and even if it was mine it would not be my fault' | 'Can do/Will do/Have done' |
| Culture | The more we waste the larger our profits (cost plus) I expect someone else will tell me if I have done something wrong (it's easier than checking it oneself) I don't care where the work comes from or goes to. As long as I do my bit I won't get criticized | Problems don't exist - only opportunities I am responsible, this is what Iam doing and by when. I know why I am doing this and how it fits into the overall business. When it's complete, I will autograph it as I am proud of it. |
