I don't commute but used to. The VBs are a huge unknown but I'm not convinced they are toxic. I am suspicious of them but our contractual language gives us an easy out if we don't like them. We should allow them to proceed and see what unfolds.

The company might conclude that they are a waste of time and effort. We might feel the same. Either side can pull them down.

Or just maybe, both sides will find them beneficial. It might even be (or not) several years of very successful VBs later we might even ask "what was all the angst about?"
