For me it’s when a metric has a bunch of carve outs to make it look better.

Net income 2025*^: 10
* adding back 5 lost in lawsuit
^ including 5 in iou from bankrupt client

How do you handle people’s kids showing up on video meetings? Screaming, kicking, hamming it up, (wasting time.) Everyone else is coo-ing…I’m not a kids person.

Thoughts?
