Carl-Gould-#70secondCEO-Getting Through the Gate Keeper

Hi everyone, Carl Gould here with your #70secondCEO. So hard to get through the gatekeeper. Who's not there? The employees? Who is there? You are. I said you want to find the owner? Just call off-peak hours. 

Because the phone probably rings to them anyway. Because no one else will own it and they don't want to miss a sale. I said the owners are easy to find. It's the employees that are harder to find. So we need to get past that. 

Never was there a better example than when Elon Musk bought Twitter. On the day that Elon Musk bought Twitter, Jack Dorsey was like, I am so sorry about what might happen to you all. You have all been so good to Twitter. 

Elon Musk shows up with a sink and he's like, hey listen, I'm the guy who slept on the floor for seven years at Tesla. You're not ready to work? Leave. So like, what's with the sink on? I don't know. 

I just had it in my hands. It needed to be bought in. Is it a metaphor? No, it's a sink. I think this goes in the toilet. Yeah, that goes in there. You got it. And a year later, what is Twitter? It's not even Twitter anymore. 

That's why it's called work, folks. Come in, work. If you want to come in and work, go find somewhere else.
