Younger "executives" or managers have difficulty even communicating with older personnel. It's not doing budgets that's the issue, it's managing people. That goes beyond being "task master" or traffic control. Understanding...

We went to the OKC store at 0730 and was #11 & 12 in line (with wife). Got them at $99 each and the store staff was great. The process was very smooth and they offered free drinks to everyone in line.
