I totally agree when there is a sudden change in upper management,especially a new growing company. I have been on the short end of two other small emerging companies with sudden quiet CEO changes , and shortly thereafter , they were declared scams. (saei, mres) Both on these boards. The Zapata oil co goes way back, but thru the years it became a huge company . Seethe company profile. My only concern is what did a 24 year old sailor start doing in these oil companies? To my way of thinking " hands on " could mean anything from a roughneck to a truck driver to who knows what. Lets wait for the 8K, and then sort it out.I personally have worn every hat from helper to certified pipe and structural steel welder , to company owner of a very successful midsized mechanical contracting company.,so I know the career climb.If this new guy had direct input in the company operations he worked for then he might be an asset to UTOG, even if there is still a grey cloud over the company.
