Lets put this another way.
You piss off your boss and alienate your workers. You are making the company millions of dollars though. Another manager has just become available who is known to make millions also but gets along with management and players alike. The owner puts out some feelers to the manager who is now availabe and he is interested. Who would you rather have...the manager who makes millions but cannot get along with the most important person(s) or a manager who has never had a problem getting along?
Please answer honestly because if you say the one who does not get along then you are full of shit and need to learn basic management 101.
One more thing you notice how he has not bad mouthed the Pistons and the Pistons are not bad mouthing him. There is mutual respect between Joe and Rick and Joe IS trying to help him secure another job any way he can. It is not Joe's fault that Rick and the owner did not see eye to eye.
