      Seriously. This is the persoon who they put in charge of communications.
      She must have banged her way to the top, I just cant see it happening otherwise.
      *I got an interview in San Diego with a digital startup company in the late 1990s. They sold cars online - they built configuration technology and had a reverse auction marketplace. I’m thinking - there’s no way I’m getting this job. I know nothing about cars. I know nothing about the internet. I got a law degree. I went to leave and the CEO who interviewed me told the HR manager don’t let her get to the door.*

      Of course, looking at it from Aston’s pov, let’s assume that they paid handsomely for time on Jay’s show and someone felt that someone from marketing was more appropriate.... for better or for worse.

    Good Gawd.... Did the "President?" of Aston Martin North America just come from the laundromat down the street?? As a president of a high-end auto manufacturer, that's in the middle of the N. American roll-out of their completely re-designed iconic model, you decide that you should represent the company and the car by choosing attire that makes you look like you're about to do some "paint-up, fix-up, clean up" at your sister's duplex..?? This new model showcase on Jay's YT channel probably will be seen by more people, than the entire N. American tour! I'm also going to take a wild guess and say that you're not quite up to speed on the particulars of this car, after watching Jay do all the Q&A for you. Another wild guess.., I don't think you even know how to open the trunk, after your hesitation, and Jay's demonstration. Bottom line, you seem to be a very nice person, and I'm sure you are, but wearing a $30 jacket with some automotive logos on it doesn't qualify someone for a high-level position with an auto manufacturer.
