[Lnc-business] Fwd: Goodbye to a valued colleague.

[Joe Bishop-Henchman]

I've just mentally recorded that today at age 38 is when I am first 
described as an older man. Time marches on.

If I'm being treated like an officer, it's news to me. I haven't spoken 
to Nick in weeks. Though I will today.

You chose to be blunt, and I will be blunt as well. What you are 
describing can be accomplished by a conversation between you and Ms. 
Daugherty. That's up to you and her. And if you have a reputation for 
sensitivity about sensitive matters, finding the truth without 
distortions, and putting long-term change ahead of short-term gain, it's 
a no-brainer to happen.

JBH
