Like the true captain he showed he was, Zafirovski will be remembered as the person who joined a company desperate enough to take a chance on his unproven leadership skills and then spend three vital years simply maximizing his own wealth. He has not admitted exactly who (on his team) came up with the idea that they may survive as a coporation if they took advantage of people who had already served their purpose (pensioners) and were no longer important. While Nortel retirees world wide suffer real losses, while various naitonal governments globally are forced to help out these badly used pensioners, Zafirovski and his management colleagues carved up $45 million in bonuses this year and Zafirovski apparently made great use of a private jet to commute from his home. I suspect there aren't too many other jobs for him after this fiasco.

President's Bush's advisor Zafirovski has enough cash and another organization to take care of: "Macedonia 2025" with Skopje's Prime Minister Nicola Gruevski.

He certainly came in with high expectations and a great track record. Hope he has enough cash to retire (assume he does), because he's not a bankable commodity at the moment
