Hmm... So they have given you a single verbal warning with no clear
targets for improvement? Have you had any previous warnings?
If they're generating =A3210,000 in *profits* from you guys, then
persumably you're doing something right. Who is responsible for
generating the sales, setting prices and producing quotes?
What hourly rate are they charging you out at? And are you advised of
individual project budgets?
