It’s just business

I don’t know how many times I have heard the phrase "It’s just business". Every single time I wonder is it really? Seth Godin is on to something with the following thoughts:

Anyone who is willing to lie to you, cheat you or treat you with disrespect because it's just business is doing more damage to herself than to you.

Work takes too much time and too much emotion for it to be just work. As far as I'm concerned, I don't want to spend time or money with anyone who has this particular attitude disfunction.
