This is one of the worst management announcements I have ever read. While on the one hand, I can appreciate the forward-looking nature of making the company better in the future and an acknowledgement of some of its shortcomings (which every company has).<p>But the worst crime of all is announcing Conrad&#x27;s resignation and providing zero credit, thanks, or goodwill towards him for being the birther of the company which wouldn&#x27;t exist in the first place if not for him. Even if he had recently run into trouble setting the company straight or other problems, it&#x27;s outright shameful to simply skip right over his contribution to making the company what it is and for being responsible for making it happen from day 1.<p>This crime wouldn&#x27;t be so awful if it had come from someone who wasn&#x27;t already a previous entrepreneur himself.<p>This is pretty sad... Parker probably would have gotten a nicer goodbye announcement had he died.
