Get the facts, right, for starters. (sorry to be so blunt).

The upgrade is 4000 amp, FB, not 400.

Have no idea about the length of wait, but these upgrades exceed the normal power requirements in the immediate surrounding area, so I am guessing some of the city planning department was involved as well as just the SCE.

If we had not had the shift to MIM, this upgrade probably was not required for just the DC and LIM (Engels).

What's the beef, anyways?

Don't think it should be with Lugee. He relied totally on Bromage who did all the shopping for real estate. His being chief operating officer puts him in the target for criticism. Lugee delegated a lot to this guy and he isn't really suitable for this position.

Don't forget, this guy was Steipp's pick coming out of his association in a fellowhip group. He was Steipp's mentor. I really doubt that Lugee was made aware of their relationship in full. Just think how many of the early marketing decisions were made by this guy, his pick of Nomad and the like sales teams, and then, realizing how botched the effort was going, hired Hauck. A lot of sales and marketing basics were ignored by this guy who had absolutely no clue on how to run a manufacturing company and develop business. Yet Steipp depended upon him as his right hand man. This is why I just don't understand why he was retained, except for some type of continuity amidst a change in management. Both Steipp and Bromage were in way over their heads and LQMT really did not have time to do OJT for these clowns at great expense to the shareholders.

Someday, I'll tell you how I really feel.
