I strongly disagree with this. Our industry has a history of being very compliant. You have a lot of young people making more money than they've ever made before and become very comfortable with it. As a result they worry about spending the money and enjoying it. For a lot of successful companies that run with a small staff it becomes a situation where they aren't interested in that extra 1% if it means them working 2 hours to get it.
