A little bit, my father was an accountant, I took some accounting and
management courses, I worked as manager for a sound design and rental
operation, which was a local shop for International Alliance of Theatrical
Stage Employees.  I worked very hard at cutting costs so we could pay union
wages to the workers.  It was no problem when dealing with the downtown
houses, Schuburt, Wilbur, Music Hall, etc, but where it became difficult
was competing against non-union companies.  I also ignored many of the
union rules because doing installations a worker had to do carpentry,
electrician, sound work.  No way was I going to send to the Union Hall to
get a gaffer to drill a hole in a speaker box so we could change the
connecting jack for the speaker cable.

So I learned purchasing, accounts receivable, accounts payable, etc.

I finally left because there was no money left to pay me.  A big show stole
about $100,000 of equipment, couldn't sue them because they went broke.
Police never turned up anything.

The union men got paid but not the office.

I guess in communusm, the workers would give me back my losses?
