Bit boring about point of sale systems and digital sales and marketing platforms. Twits are writing off 11m in a failed system they tried to customise but now buying products and paying someone to integrate them which will be super expensive.

I'd be looking at the head of IT and online sales. But then sacking the COO.

So I'm not alone.
Although I did sort of glean enough info to form a mental picture not unlike your garage

In my past life that's the sort of situation that I would have been asked to analyse, resolve, and provide a detailed plan including costs and timelines. Then do it if we won the contract.

Lol. From memory your garage is spotlessly clean. That's what it should look like but we keep coming up with ideas and then it gets full of crap again

One year in the early 90s I worked 365 days. What a nightmare that was. One 4 month period was 10 hours a day 7 days a week. Hourly rate was good though, but no overtime rates.

Ah yes the world of RFP's, solution workshops, bid rooms, SOW's, cost scrubbing, client walkthroughs, hungry sales people, revenue hungry account managers, poorly constructed contracts.....you must really miss it.

Wouldn'tve picked cranked as a slave to the man!!

14lb sledge hammers, grease, chain blocks and industrial sized power tools no prob, all day everyday.

Office? I just couldn't do it. I'd be the guy who just sits and stares at the computer and tries to bullshit my way through, because I wouldn't have a freaking clue haha

That would be me for sure. The look on his face I could nail no worries. Maybe walk around with a briefcase/Manila folder now and then?

With real surfers help maybe I could have a successful career change
