No doubt. But to be fair to him, being a new exec in a new industry, just days into your tenure with a rapidly shifting landscape and a lot of negotiating coming up, is not a recipe for getting specific, candid answers.
I give Brett Yormark a great deal of credit for jumping right in! His first day on the job wasn't Aug. 1, it was about 2 weeks ago, 6-30-22!PLUS he has a hall pass until Aug. 1
He can have his 2 or 3 weeks vacation sometime later. LOL
