The worst thing you can do is let product/tech people try to reinvent transit.
Transit doesn’t need innovation. The worst thing you can do is try to innovate when to comes to transit. Run buses and trains. Steel on fucking Steel. And keep the tech people in the code cave
The worst thing you can do is let your product/tech people start trying to reinvent sales
Sales doesn’t need innovation. The worst thing you can do is try to innovate when to comes to sales. Smile and fucking dial. Boots on pavement. And keep the tech people in the code cave
