KAT Exploration Inc (KATX)

[BigOwl47]

I fail to see the departure of Jacob Wayne Pickett as a negative for KATX / BVIG in light of his work history. He apparently has made a practice of working for only relatively short periods of time for any of the companies he has worked with.
According to J Wayne Pickett’s own Resume, Mr Picket worked for many different companies over his career. His career shows a pattern that indicates he only works for a company for a short time and then moves on to the next company.

We know that Mr Pickett’s most recent work has been with KATX / BVIG, so we will begin there.

I THINK MR PICKETT'S OWN WORK HISTORY SHOWS THAT HE MOVES AROUND A LOT FROM JOB TO JOB. ALSO IF YOU CONSIDER THAT MR PICKET IS APPROACHING RETIREMENT AGE, HE MAY EVEN BE READY TO PUT DOWN THE PICK AND SHOVEL FOR GOOD. HIS DEPARTURE FROM KATX / BVIG IS NOT AUTOMATICALLY A NEGATIVE FOR KATX / BVIG.

Mr Pickett’s Education shows

Bachelor of Science, Geology, Memorial University of Newfoundland (1974)
