    By Dan Bobinski
    Director, The Center for Workplace Excellence
    When I picked up my dry-cleaning the other day, the bill was $31. I mentioned it was worth every penny, as it saves me so much time. The manager said she was glad she didn’t have to do the pressing herself. She stated the people doing the pressing […]
