The Monkey as King

At a gathering of all the animals, the monkey danced and delighted the others so much that they made him their king. The fox, however, was disgusted at the idea of the monkey as king. The next day the fox found a trap with a piece of meat in it and took the trap with the meat to the monkey, saying, "Here is a dainty morsel I have found, sire. I did not take it myself because I thought it ought to be saved for you, our king. Will you be pleased to accept it?" The monkey reached at once for the meat and was immediately caught in the trap. He bitterly scolded the fox for leading him into danger. But the fox only laughed and said, "Monkey, you call yourself King of the Beasts and haven't more sense than to be tricked like that!"

Before you choose a leader, consider well what skills make a good one.

This is a demotion for the CIO - will he take the cue and find another job?

A UFO might swoop in and rescue the company, but you'd have to know what homing signal to send. A friendly greeting containing "We be friends" and "We got a lotta worker bees to DEATH RAY" are sure to draw them to NRM on W76th St. Not knowing the carrier frequency is a problem. Try hydrogen times pi, or just include in the message "We got pie..." That'll work. Give 'em 112 Janskys.

Kind of surprised. I didn't realize Seagate ever promoted their employees. Such a foreign concept at this company.

He'll replace our part time CEO soon I believe. Which is ridiculous but whatever, i stopped caring some time ago.

Looking forward to my 3 again.

How do you know a UFO (pronounced OOOH-FOE) will not hover in and save the company? By "save", I mean hover in, disgorge a hold full of gold, cash and jewels upon the CEO, COO CFO CXO C&O, etc., then use a DEATH RAY to vaporize the pesky worker bees that actually get stuff done. It is the SEAGATE WAY, OIL OF OLAY.

Our COO really earned his 3. What a great 3 he is. And will be going forward. He serves his master well. And he will be rewarded. With another 3.

Bartender, a round of 3s all around.

Wow. Another deplorable decision proving that you can rise to the level of your incompetence and how high true incompetence can take you! Moseley proves his uselessness, perhaps even extreme detriment to the company over and over and has been rewarded over the years for his unique lack of talent. Awesome!

Luczo is getting ready to jump ship and Mosley will replace him as CEO. Luczo will probably remain as the head of board of directors as it requires even less time than his current part-time CEO gig!

Also way to reward Mosley for the kickass job he has been doing. He has been in charge of ops and r&d reports to him and WD kick our butt when it comes to cost and everyone is wondering why our margins suck. We are still using DSPs in 2016 and the guy responsible for it is on his way to become the CEO. Bravo Seagate bravo!

You may get a promotion, but if you read the fine print you may not get a raise along with it. Read the 8k filing, he got no raise with the title.

Bjorn,

You gave it your best. You may have a future in writing . You may have future in comedy.

But...

"Most of all, the are LEADERS."

You might want to proofread your missives before you step on your dick and land on the POST button with both of your chins and cheeks.

Well in NRM today when the news came out there was much excitement in the halls, cheering, and high fives all around. I have never seen an organization more motivated, enthused and dynamic. Yes sir, Seagate is THE place to be right now. (As I walked past the bustling Technical Information Center library I was nearly stampeded by a spirited group of interns and their trainers.) The halls are alive with more than the sound of Muzak. I mean, my heck, there is so much JOY here.

But the real reason life is so good here has nothing to do with the CQO, CXO, CJO, CPO, CRO, or the CAO. No, it has to do with the local site management that is so responsive and personable and visionary. Most of all, the are LEADERS. They are the cat's pajamas. They are so damned GOOD I could cry.
