And yes I was part of the team and I give final approval, but there are budgets in place for this stuff, we plan ahead you know. No need for me to look at details. I ok'd budget, look, furniture and I just. Sat in on the stacking plan. I am hardly in all meetings though.

We are redoing our office in LA too btw. Done August 1st that one. Same basic look, just red instead of blue accents. I love the project. The workforce is also looking forward to it, since the atmosphere will be awesome.

In Montreal, 2nd and 4tg floor are almost finished. Very clean looking. Much friendlier than the old look.

Since you worked in furniture, we use Bene in all offices.
Now you're starting to see why I was so thrown with your lack of knowledge or you not being bothered. This is exactly what the man at the top would be bothered with.

Employees are your top resource, their well being is one of your top concerns. Not something that is delegated unless in the very biggest of companies and even then the top man in HR sits at a very high level.

Not familiar with Bene, I was selling Mauser, which was at the Herman miller, Westinghouse level. top level stuff and expensive.

Nice looking stuff. http://bene.com/office-furniture/uk/ They have a world wide network?
