SHOW NOTES: I am neither aware nor unaware. Did. you lobby to get her on the board? She'll make an excellent board member. But did you arrange for her appointment. She's a stellar candidate. Weren't you in charge of this huge problem area? No, I inherited it. But before that you were a top officer of the company. Surely you must have known that the operations were illegal. Under my watch we reduced the impropriety by 41%. I have not spoken to the man but have made it clear that I would do so if he came to me. I have not seen the footage in question but I believe, based on what I know is in it, that everyone should see it. It is not our job to investigate the competency or work of the bridge inspectors, or to tell them where we think the problems may be. I am not asking you to coach me for free, I am asking for your advice on an issue. It depends what "it" is. I didn't come in here, and I'm not leaving.
