The vetting by Dave Hart was ridiculous in this hiring. As for Tyndall personally I won’t miss him. The good news is that we won’t lose any recruits because there are none.
Too bad this train wreck occurred, but it’s no surprise. Take your time, Dave, and maybe you can properly vet the next guy more thoroughly…and open up that checkbook. We need sweet honey to lure a big bear.
At least there’s no astronomical buyout to pay !
