transcript

FTE #1: Attrition for your group is now running at over 20%!

FTE #2: I was already aware of that, but I appreciate you coming to let me know anyway.

FTE #1: Well, aren't you going to do something about it?

FTE #2: Isn't it quite obvious that I already have?

Caption: Good people leaving is bad. Bad people leaving is good. No people leaving can be good or bad. Attrition rates tell you nothing.
