This year, Wells Fargo announced that due to a error in worker judgement 5300 employees were terminated from their employment.  It is clear that there was some rather large problem and that the solution to a large problem is to fire a large amount of "bad" employees.   

I just have one question:  What did they fix?   

Any problem that requires the termination of 5300 workers must be a heck of a problem.  Listen to this episode and see what YOU think?
