Showing the exhaustion on his face, and surrounded by dozens of people that might attack. He kinda is like, nah I'm done I got other things to do. Also likely considered murder since it would be difficult to claim self defense. Quote Link to post

But the real story: Harrison Ford was sick and so the director just off-the-cuff said to just shoot the guy. A big sword fight was originally planned, but instead we got one of the most iconic movie moments. 1 Quote Link to post

I was just thinking about how much work the stunt coordinator, and stunt men had training and planning for a thing that just never happened. It probably happens a lot in the film industry but as someone in the digital world I tend to keep even the work that I never actually use. Quote Link to post

What I read is that she was hired by NI for a specific job, did (or not) do it and was, if not fired, at least forced into a situation which led to her resignation after about a year on the job. That sounds rather short to me, but it is true that I am not privy to the way things are working on modern corporate boards. Maybe that is the new trend. I suspect there is more to it, and that her opinion that the business was run in a very outdated manner (saying that on a podcast sounds to me very non-politically correct) may have been the main reason. After all, her title is/was Chief MARKETING Officer, not Chief OPERATING Officer. Then there is the question of whether the "Good Ol' Boys" club might have reacted unkindly to a female outsider (I am not clear what her Dell and Rack Space background means in terms of her tech-savvyness. After all, she appears to have a BA in architecture and seems to only have held marketing positions). It appears that the Green Lady of NI has moved to even greener pastures: IBM - Biographies Can't abbreviate IBM (I?) but the website could use some of that pastel green and washed out pink palette NI has ambitiously engineered his website with.
