Re: [Avid-L2] Avid Customer Association?

hahahahhahaha!

"Additional Avid Customer Association user groups will be overseen by a series of single-focus boards,
each of which will have an identified customer responsible for ongoing leadership and management of the initiative.
A Customer Association Executive Board will provide oversight to the individual Avid Customer Association boards, "

Goal One:
Create more boards, because boards make us feel important and help us pay ourselves more while we fire more people! And everyone knows how boards get so much done!"
Goal Two:
"Get rid of all these goddamned high priced editors!"

" Avid® (NASDAQ: AVID) today announced the creation of the Avid Customer Association,
a comprehensive initiative designed to provide essential strategic leadership to the media industry,
collaborate with key industry leaders and visionaries, and deepen relationships between the company and its customers. "

translation = these guys are scared shit of netflix and amazon and apple and google and we are going to hold their hands as they hit the iceberg and we all go down to the bottom of the sea.
