IMHO yes jobs were not done as well since focus was to wide, not narrow. |

If something happens to said person. The loss is greater. If the drop |
| 18 |
the ball, the loss is greater. |

There is no reason anyone should have such broad focus. They pick an |
| 21 |
area focus on it and work on it. That people take on/eat to much, then |
| 22 |
fail to chew it is not ok. Thus this is designed to prevent that from |
| 23 |
occurring. |

Just like Jacob should have had backup. There should be more recruiters, |
| 26 |
more people on QA, etc. Until ever little detail of every job is being |
| 27 |
done to perfection. There is no need to stack titles, or widen focus. We |
| 28 |
need more narrow focus and doing a better job all around. |
