Personal

It's not personal - it's business- your taking it personal.
(Line from Godfather 1 )

Sometimes you have to make tough decisions in business, you are best served to push aside your personal feelings and only think of your business. It is easier said then done at times.
We are all human and have likes and dislikes, we get upset and our reaction may be to get revenge or to shun certain people.
Don't do it.

Make your decisions on what is right for your business, your overall profitability.
Weigh out all the options and take emotions out of it.

Actually to quote the Godfather again... Keep your friends close and your enemy closer.

(The Godfather has many life's lessons)

If you strike out solely for revenge and hurt yourself what have you accomplished?
Live to see another day, let it roll off your back and move on. Work with what you have, know a person's personality and work with it.
This is very important for road drivers because you are constantly working with new labor, new personalities. And you do not always have a second option. You need to work with what you have because in the end YOU are responsible.

That said - when all else fails sometimes you just have to cut bait.

It is not personal - it's business -
