Heh heh.

Reminds me of one CEO of mine proudly holding up a Nokia n95 Navigator and telling us how the iPhone was trash and the n95 was the future of mobile phones. This was his excuse for not signing our retail provider up to sell Apple phones.

Within a couple of years he had left to join the board of a small credit union with his crowning achievement being the introduction of low-balance fees and cash withdrawal fees.

So yes, I am perplexed at how people like this keep getting highly paid executive positions while I am stuck in a damp cell in a poorly lit dungeon.
