still applies!
still applies!
S.B. was a Democratic* Lt. Gov. under a Republican Governor.
His office budget was very limited so he had no choice but to
advertise for good staff that way.Unfortunately, things have NOT
changed much for Woo. 80-20 faces dire shortage in financial and
human resources. So long hours, low pay, ..., etc still applies.
However, things in 80-20 could improve.

(2) Fantastic Upward Mobility Beckons!
80-20's SELF project is designed to get 80-20 out of its current
"poor as a church mouse" stage. If SELF can reach $1 million/yr
for 5 years, and if a staff member proves to be a superstar, there
will be exceptional upward mobility in responsibility and pay. Ying
Yang has resigned from 80-20 owing to personal reasons. Note
that S. B. is retiring at the end of 2016.
