But I wasn’t asking about any particular CEO, I was asking about your opinion—- it’s clear you don’t have a cogent answer. We’re done here

Pretty sure the ‘Chef Executive Officer’ is the opposite of ‘just’ a cog in the wheel just because of, y’know his entire job title. I’d like to hear your thoughts on why he isn’t!

I’m standing behind this. I think that Brian Thompson was a mass murderer. His actions as CEO put profit before people and caused many people’s lives to be lost.

You don’t do it that way. You figure out the how it’s gong to fail, when that failure is likely, and then engineer it not to do that in the relevant timeframe. The original engineer was right and you are not.
