lol.....a long time ago when I was not long in industry, I sat in meeting with a few seniors folks + director. Since we were waiting on someone running late, there was some casual talk going on and it led to the director asking what people's dream job was. When it got to me, I said CFO. That took everyone by surprise since I'm in a technical field. When asked why, I provided my 5-step plan:

1. Work at company A, keep my nose clean, and become CFO. Make a fat salary w/ perks and bonuses.
2. Run company A into the ground and get a fat severance package.
3. Get hired into company B and make a fat salary + perks and bonuses.
4. Run company B into the ground and get a fat severance package.
5. Retire early.

It became a running joke for many years.

Nope...supply chain is still f'd up based on my experiences at work. Some suppliers project no return to normal for a few years. Fook...
