Again how is firing someone via technology that gives you audio AND video worse than firing them over something that only gives you audio? If anything, Skype is much more personal and accountable. And no, flying isn't the answer. Wasting thousands of dollars and half a week to just talk to someone in person for 5 minutes is a huge waste of time and resources.
I can tell some of you work in a corporate environment where you probably have to call together a board-meeting just to change the toner....but not everything in the working world has to be so complicated. Something doesn't have to be hard or expensive for it to be professional. The whole point of technology is to make things more efficient. Internet Conferencing is to the Phone, what Email was to the Letter. Or are you guys still corresponding with clients via carrier pigeon?
