Could be. Patrick was just so perfect as a Google CFO. Only-at-Google. His backpack full of hundreds (supposedly).
But Ruth: she could be anywhere in the corporate world.
- V-eHGsd_ 3y agopatrick "sorry I missed the last tgif I was running a marathon in paris with my daughter" pichette. and I don't say that disparagingly. that was endearing. (i'm probably getting some details of that wrong, it was ... dear lord, a long time ago)
- jrockway 3y agoSpeaking of TGIF, the day it moved to Thursday is where I start my "beginning of the end" counter.
- V-eHGsd_ 3y agoit was less fun having beers on a thursday afternoon for sure, but I at least understood the fact that the company had thousands of non-US employees and TGIF on a friday afternoon for us was TGIM for everyone else.

- AlbertCory 3y agoIf you think Ruth and Patrick are the same, I'd hate to work at whatever company you actually admire.
- dilyevsky 3y agoNot the same - Ruth is far more effective version. Guessing you missed the whole “scrappiness to help investors out oops nvm we are investors” thing or just hadn’t yet run out of coolaid at the time
- AlbertCory 3y agoI guess you missed out on the notion of "fun." Thoughts and prayers.
- dilyevsky 3y agoYes it’s very apt to have it in quotes
