CEOs and the like

Work’s been interesting today. Over the last few months two of the founders have been at each other’s throats for various reasons, and it’s all come to a head. So one leaves tomorrow, which we already knew was happening, and the other, the company’s CEO told us this morning that he was leaving today. Which is, to say the least, quite a development.

We already had a new guy coming in as Chairman of the company, but he’s now also taking the role of CEO. I think it’ll be good for the business, but all the same it was quite a surprising development first thing this morning!

What occurred to me later is that now all three of the people who interviewed me for this job have now left. In fact, I’m probably about the fourth or fifth longest-running member of the team now. Which is kind of scary, seeing as I’ve only been here since July…
