Days go by - Power without perception

Memory is a poor substitute for the moment.
Since the perception of the past is changing like shifting desert sand,
there is no point of reference, you can only make relative statements
about this and that... do you remember who you were? I don't.

Bain Consulting

For my OLIN people's...
Here is a link to the Wash U recruiter for Bain Consulting.

After checking out Vault.com it looks like the average Base Salary for a Consultant (which is what MBA candidates would generally aim for) is about $125k in base salary. That seems to have parity with what I've heard from other consulting firms. I'm sure its highly competitive, but then again, you are too... right???

Business School - I love it

A great presentation on 711 Japan that my friends gave during our Supply Chain Class. Notice Godzilla and the helicopters... 711 friggin uses helicopters to deliver stuff as part of their high reactivity supply chain... obviously they take their business seriously... we even saw a cement company called CEMEX that guarantees delivery within a specific 20 minute window.... yes... a whole cement mixer truck + filling the truck, can be at your site within a prediction window of 20 minutes... makes you wonder why something like Cable Service Installs... can only give you an 8 hour window....
