And provide some QOL improvement for the understaffed based, save some money on hotels and deadhead flights. If only there was something like that setup so we could use it.... Oh well, we can keep dreaming.

I had to laugh when CC sent out the last email saying that the one thing he has learned in leadership is that you can't improve by doing things the same way they have always been done. Like I think it was some type of inside joke that he made with MT or a bet he lost. Really sad that SGU is so afraid to try something different and see if it works.
