Desculpas, sim... ma non troppo


Com uma oferta de software grátis em troca de apenas um link para a Cruz Vermelha, Nicholas Longo, CEO da Coffee Cup Software, mandou, ontem, uma nova mensagem aos usuários dos seus produtos. Foi ele quem, há dois dias, escreveu isso:

We would like to also say on record that if any country is found responsible for these attacks, we call for that country's complete destruction and annihilation.

Eu achei que só eu tinha ficado indignada mas, pelo visto, colou mal mesmo.
Eis a nova mensagem:

In my last e-mail I was angry. Now I am angry and saddened.
My thoughts were emotional, not political or commercial.
I will stand by my conviction that those responsible should not walk with us on this planet. I will though take back the word 'annihilate', this was anger speaking from someone that has now cried for the victims of this attack.
This may surprise some people...... I am only human.


[OOHHH... Mas taí, humano? Eu me confesso surpresa, sim.]

Just as President Bush almost cried on CNN today, that does not make him less of a President. I as a CEO have the right to be angry, and to vent my emotion. This does not make me any less of a CEO or human. It makes me more of one.

Nick-



Não senti lá muita firmeza, mas antes assim.
Outra coisa: ser CEO tá com essa bola toda, tá?
É tão mais importante assim do que ser simplesmente um human?
Caramba.
I'm impressed.
