QUOTE(Alkivar @ Fri 14th December 2007, 1:11pm) *

Danny emphatically denies he was asked to resign, and that he quit for reasons other than this bit with Carolyn. My conversation with him does seem to suggest the lack of response from the board now is/was typical. My guess is he left because he got sick of the "oh nevermind" attitude from Flo.


Danny left because he couldn't get along with the board, and the board didn't like his attitude. It's a little more complicated than that, but that's the sum and substance of it.

Next step was tuesday morning, one hour way from taking my flight. We
were in Carolyn office. You entered the room and gave Carolyn your
resignation letter. I told you, "please enter the room, close the door
and let us talk together about that". You looked at me in a bland
fashion, said nothing, went out of the room, closed the door and left
the office. Carolyn run after you to ask you what was going on and the
only message she brought back is that we were all crazy. Bottom line:
you refused to talk to me when I proposed that we talk. It is not normal
that you claim I never asked you an explanation, I did and you chose to
not answer.



Boy, that makes it very clear that Danny did not quit because what he knew (or didn't know) about the COO. Now, why the confidentiality agreement that protects her?

This doesn't make any sense at all.

But as Danny says they are "all crazy".

There's something more, though.


Like I said, his quitting had nothing to do with the COO position. It had to do with the fact that he pissed people off, and other people pissed him off, and eventually a board member's attitude towards him was the straw that broke the camels back. If you ask him nicely, he'll probably tell you exactly what.
