This ship is indeed rudderless. I don't know what on Earth is our BOD thinking. Why is this clown a CEO??! Why is this middle management even employed anymore? Whoever decides BoJo's schedule or advises him needs to be fired. Same goes for whoever is advising the C-Suite or the Board on pilot contracts. Seriously... anyone with half a clue can see how the company could have saved money if they'd have only done the right thing. The whole 1221 fiasco was beyond unnecessary, and whoever thought it was a good idea should be fired and not allowed to manage a Burger King fryer, let alone advise anyone on anything.

Whoever is in charge of BoJo's schedule should also be fired and thrown out. People laugh about the whole deep state in government. The middle management fiefdoms are the deep state in the corporate world. They come up with these self-protecting policies. Any CEO worth his or her salt would start by completely eliminating all of the middle management and starting over.

You should watch it. In doing so, you might find yourself in agreement with many others that found his presentation to be very “ eloquent, and persuasive”

takes a lot of courage and skill to testify on the floor of the Senate. Hats off to him.

I don’t know. I am trying to figure out who ‘Grumpy’ is referring to.

Probably the guy wearing his leather jacket with epaulets on them and his dark pink rimmed glasses.

I’m not sure of names but refer to the guy behind AW in the leather jacket.
