I think the thing that frustrates me the most about this day other than my portfolio taking a big whack is the juvenile press release put out by Anderson. How can someone who has had 1 on 1 meetings with the government for months come across like he knows nothing.
I would like to think that Marla, who appears to have some communication skills, would not have allowed something that to come out. It just increases the uncertainty.
It reminds me of a Seinfeld episode where the guy talks about Kramer having no business skills:
LELAND
Kramer, I've.. been reviewing your work.. Quite frankly, it stinks.
KRAMER
Well, I ah.. been havin' trouble at home and uh.. I mean, ah, you know, I'll work harder, nights, weekends, whatever it takes..
LELAND
No, no, I don't think that's going to, do it, uh. These reports you handed in. It's almost as if you have no business training at all..
I don't know what this is supposed to be!
KRAMER
Well, I'm uh, just--tryin' to get ahead..
LELAND
Well, I'm sorry. There's just no way that we could keep you on.
KRAMER
I don't even really work here!
LELAND
That's what makes this so difficult.
I'm generally a glass half full kind of person but today that was difficult. However tomorrow is another day and hopefully it'll bring some clarity and sensibility.
