Feedback left on our posts by readers normally provide the inspiration for other subjects and posts. But I woke up this morning to a comment that warrants its own post … without my usual commentary. So now, I give you “The Twelve Pains of Sourcing,” an original composition by Brian Korzeniowski, JobsBlog reader extraordinaire. Thanks, Brian. This really made us laugh. You just have way too much time on your hands. Happy Holidays! gretchen
