The cat is a farm cat and has the capacity to feed itself completely, and there is no shortage of mice and and other small animals around.

If it doesn't go away within one hour, feed it. Otherwise, it will go away and feed itself. If you do this, it will only beg for food when it can't find any, otherwise, it begs for food all the time while leting rodent populations build up.

ISSUES
-not structured -Professional atmosphere -don't operate strategically but only tactically -don't see ny and how to keep ops up. -dev boards failed -planning failed -never leaving by dec - to what kind of standards.
WHAT IS YOUR IDEAL SOLUTIONS
-having a plan and sticking to
-
WHAT IS REASON FOR LONGER? - undermanned - -too much innov during execution
-
Protocols Issue - please do not have me argue with staff on protocols - outreach policy. Write the Effie protocol. I do not want you to tell me. First, it needs to and be written so that someone else can execute in her absence. Second there are enough details in there that unless you want such arguments as yesterday to continue happening we need to write them down.
Infrastructure issue - wtf
