jpducros What about if answer I was : His daughter works for the company as a carpet cleaner. Would that create also a material relationship ?
bani007 Still would not be independent because he would try to promote his daughter
jayj001 some power-wielding secretary
gulfa99 way to go..from a cleaner to a ceo :)
