I didn't mean to offend anybody, i just do though. My only point is...
If *everyone* in elan had done exactly what Armand + Charles did, how would the staff manage to keep any semblance of order? The chief was effectively acting as a quasi-staff member, supporting the system of abuse most of you claim to hate?!?! If the chief (and the expeditors, coordinators, etc...) had acted out as well, the order would have collapsed quickly, and many of us would not be here today... it takes strong people to collapse a system and weak people to participate as cogs in the machine. Thus is my final and only point of contention - I did not mean to offend or insult anyone else here, and for that, I am sorry. I am here to insult the elan staff.
