I'D LIKE TO SHARE WITH YOU SOME INSIGHTFUL COMMENTS BY BED BATH AND BEYOND'S EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR MARCUS LEMONIS ON CALIFORNIA GOVERNOR GAVIN NEWSOM. WHAT I GOT BACK WAS SNARK AND SARCASM, AND QUITE FRANKLY, A HIGH LEVEL OF IMMATURITY. IF YOU’RE SEEKING AN EXTRA, IF YOU’RE SEEKING AN OFFICE THAT’S HIGHER THAN THE GOVERNORSHIP, YOU HAVE TO BE WILLING TO HAVE CONVERSATIONS WITH PEOPLE FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES, FROM DOMESTIC BUSINESSES, PRIVATE CITIZENS, WILLING TO TALK ABOUT THINGS THAT YOU MAY NOT NECESSARILY AGREE WITH. HE DOESN’T WANNA DO THAT, AND FOR ME, IT WAS A FAIT ACCOMPLI FOR HIM. I DIDN’T CALL HIM OUT FOR ANYTHING. I JUST SAID IT’S EXPENSIVE TO DO BUSINESS THERE.
