A CEO with neither perception nor results, WOW!!

[tailfins]

Some CEOs function by getting results, others function by not getting results, but keep their jobs by creating a false perception of results and morale. This jerk does neither.

Is there any doubt why AOL (is it AsshOLe?) should be put out of its misery?. In it's heyday, AOL subscribers were the clueless "bad drivers" of the internet and it went downhill from there!

The first one is, I will take full credit and full responsibility for anything that’s not right at Patch. If the coffee machine doesn’t work, or a town doesn’t work — anything that’s going wrong at Patch you can blame me for it.

When you hear about what we’re doing at Patch it’s very serious and it’s very forward-thinking and anything that happens around Patch isn’t going to change that direction.

The above quote brings to mind this:

Proverbs 29:1
1 (http://biblehub.com/proverbs/29-1.htm)He, that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.
