CEO Intern Cast Diary

A lot has happened this weekend and rather than explain day by day, I will explain the weekend to you as one whole. I believe I left you hanging a few days ago when I mentioned that we presented our industry research and financial analysis to the chairman. So to summarize the presentation let me say it went well, for practice that is. I don’t say that to discredit the time and effort put into the making of the presentation but instead to say that I knew that the bar for this task was significantly higher than we jumped. None the less the chairman said he was pleased and impressed with our work.

Now earlier the morning of the presentation we woke late, it was 7:45, we had not left the cabin and we had a half hour drive ahead of us. In the interest of time we left Beni behind because he was not ready. Later that day we find out that Beni made his way to a nearby town called Champaign and intends to stay there for the weekend since the night life there is better that that of Decatur. Champaign is an hour drive, he made it there without a car and he left from the cabin which is out in no man’s land. I was baffled by the fact that he had made it out to Champaign but not surprised that he would behaved so irrationally. Somehow the team ends up in Champaign to check out the night scene, when low and be hold Beni pops up. At the end of the night he decided to join the rest of the group for a ride home. The following day Mr. Paulin informed Beni that his behavior needs to change if he would like to continue to be apart of this experience. As usual Beni was not receptive to criticism and heard everything that Mr. Paulin and the team had to say but didn’t listen. Shape up or ship out. Irie I, One Love. Charlie H.
