I remember a colleague who was critical and pretty much the only person who knew how part of the business worked. He had a great analogy that for every new initiative and fresh recruit they brought into that area, it was like the organisation was hooking in another IV into him to draw more blood out. It's an image that always stuck with me to describe people in the situation Jeff found himself in.
