Once they figure it out, they all start guessing as to why your company is being sued.Now, we know that lawsuits are a part of business. But, to those who are on the outside, all they think of are the disastrous and negative connotations that come with the word lawsuit.

Long pause. “And the calling cards, too. It’s all there. Look at that, sir. See? See? That’s big savings.” No answer. Long pause. “Look at that. And the extra lines get the discount also. That’s even more savings, sir.” Long pause. Long pause. Long pause. More nervousness. “Did I tell you that our company was founded in . . .”All of a sudden this quiet man finally said something, and it’s something that I’ll never forget. “Boy,” he said in a thick mountaineer drawl, interrupting me right smack in the middle of my enthusiastic babbling. “I done bought
