The McDonald's story is interesting. Slumping sales; slumping CEO.Amazing how fast a CEO can turn a company around. Note: the last link was to an article written in January, 2015. Three months later, March 1, 2015, Steve Easterbrook took over as McDonald's CEO.
Today this headline: McDonald's has 'total brand confusion': Sonnenfeld.
Before him was Don Johnson, CEO, 2012 - 2015, an electrical engineer who was at Northrop Grumman before moving over to McDonald's Executive (1990 - 2015). According to wiki:
Due to a 4.1 percent decline in customer traffic in 2014, Thompson announced that he was stepping down from his CEO position effective March 1, 2015.
In November 2015, it was announced that Thompson joined the board of directors of vegan meat-alternative company Beyond Meat.Maybe his heart was not into hamburger. Or perhaps an example of the Peter Principle.

Why I Love To Blog
Hillary can't even succeed as a memorable hurricane. Just a lot of hot air and little impact. Not only that, they misspelled her name, but cogitating on her gender affinity, one wonders....
