Goalposts Moved

They still don’t respect you.

Two steps forward on the business front as of late. One giant step back in terms of governance.

If you were preparing a proposal, your time frame just got shortened from two months to 10 days. This is disgusting.

Hey Rhys Best and Karl Kurz, is this what you signed up for? Do you think this is right? Do you think this is how a modern corporation should be governed? Are you ready to associate yourself with this circus? Cook, Duganier, and Epps have already compromised their reputations by being party to continued ugly displays like this. Are you willing to compromise your good names?

Readers, are you planning a proposal? Each shareholder is allowed one. If you need ideas or help, email me. The clock is ticking.
