> I know that people will think it's great that you are doing this and I also know that you think it's good (for you) to have a feel for the issues that frustrate every day users. But I think it's not a great use of a company execs time and I am not even sure it's a good way to deploy resources at Cloudflare.
As a counter example, Jeff Bezos (whose time may be worth more than anybody else's) famously audits his email for customer complaints and occasionally derails an organization for a day or two in order to figure out what happened. He stands behind this practice and has said that he often picks out cases where the anecdotal complaint is counter to data that he's been presented, and that more often than not the anecdotes are correct and find a shortcoming in the data. IMO it also demonstrates a culture of caring and following up about anecdotes to others whose time is worth less than his own.

Is that why Amazon is growing more and more notorious for selling fraudulent items over the years?
- tempestn 7y agoMaybe someone needs to email Jeff about that.
