How’s That Job Matching Working Out?

The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from.

Great quote, Frank! It could apply to a lot of areas, including - particularly - performance standards. Unfortunately.

Ann, great point. I always get jumpy when people stand on their "standards." You're so right about performance...there are descriptors, but in application it can be something else entirely.
