Re: I can just here the arguments in the board room now
"Exec 1: You can take this product
exec 2: Piss off im not taking responsibility for that piece of crap, you take it.
exec 1: no way.
Rinse and repeat 75,000 times."
If it's like meetings I've been privy too, it'll be more along the lines of:
"OK, we'll table this discussion until another time."
Next meeting:
"Is everyone here?"
"No, Jim couldn't make it, family emergency."
"OK, first order of business; Jim gets appointed head of the department to handle 'product'. All in favor?"
"AYE!"
"All opposed?"
"... "
"The motion is carried. Sheryl, send Jim's office a notice congratulating him on his promotion."
(Based on a true event. 'Jim' resigned as soon as he found out."
