Jerry Dobson's Parnassus funds have been my investment since the earliest days, when he lived around the corner on Parnassus St., and hand delivered documents to my door.
Thank you for everything, Jerry.

And there is a sort of "chicken and egg" debate to think about. Companies which treat their employees VERY well usually are doing products and services that are throwing off enough cash that they can AFFORD the perks for the folks. Think Google, for instance, vs. some landscaper hiring immigrants to rake rocks onto lawns.
Still, the oft-repeated quote, "If you take care of your people, they will take care of your customers", has never been proven wrong.
