Conference Update 2: Electric Boogaloo
There's a woman giving a talk on implicit bias and she's doing a terrible job. She's running like, three different conversations at once. There's the general direction of the talk about implicit bias, with constant and out of the blue diversions to discussions she's had with people on this topic, sprinkled with even more random diversions to conversations she's had with her family. It's really hard to follow and reminds me that not everyone can Respert, but many people can Craig.
I remember having to go through four different personality training courses with four different companies I worked for over the years. The kind of thing where you learn about you and your customers personalities in hopes that you can better sell to their style/personality and improve your results as a, well, result.
I'll spare you where I always fell (the best traits) and just tell you about one of my coworkers back in the day, which is why I brought this up. She got done assessing herself and the results were hilarious. We, as teammates, knew her to be a bummer of a person. The opposite of charismatic. She had resting bitch face, was aggressively materialistic and condescending. No fun at all. A real Craig, in many ways.
Turns out she assessed herself as a fun, airy, life of the party type. She didn't have any of the things we all saw every day.
Which makes me wonder how much a Craig really knows they're Craiging. Or if they think they're absolutely slaying it, and walk around their mom's basement confused why people are getting the read on them so wrong.
Speaking of reads, Cytodyn has been elusive to nail down. While not all their fault (Amarex, FDA, 13D'bags, Craigs) there have been a lot of self inflicted wounds (Nader) over the years and we all pretty much swung and missed on what we thought we knew about them, the timing to market, or a handful of other things. But while they're less communicative now, it's becoming easier to know what we've got in them.
Hindsight is 2020, and I mean that in two ways because in hindsight we all had a chance to cash some shares out for a nice price in 2020. We don't have that luxury right now, but I trust the company to move back in that direction more than ever. No matter what the Craigs say.
