Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

And it's like, if he takes too long and it's like, I just want it to be just right or whatever.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

It's like at a certain point, uh,

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

various crises the company might be having should take precedence over his desire to make a smooth transition.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

Because obviously if there are any other crises that come up as if, you know, Alan die leaving and the design thing and Apple and tell as if we don't have enough already, but like anytime something like that happens, it's like, okay, I guess, well the transition will have to wait a little bit because we have to sort this out.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

It's like, there'll never be a perfect time.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

Right.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

And at a certain point, um,

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

which I think were long past you staying is the biggest problem.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

So you do have to eventually do it.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

And I hope he, you know, he's a sensible person.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

I hope he's probably some kind of deadline.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

He's like, whatever his deadline in his head.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

And it's like, I'll try to find the perfect time, but honestly, it's definitely going to happen within the next, you know, X number of years or months.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

And, um,

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

Fingers crossed that he finds a time where he feels like it's the right time and he makes it happen because he needs to go.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

Yeah.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

And honestly, that would make a lot of sense.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

But like, I think he sees now that that's not the right move.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

That's why I said I don't want him to be chairman of the board because how can you – the day you sit in the CEO seat and say, okay, Tim, I'm going to do everything the opposite of what you did.

Accidental Tech Podcast
676: A Sternly Worded Instruction

I know you're still chairman of the board.
