As Cathy says, "40 years experience really seems like a lot, right? But I can tell you guys it's like the majority of stuff is obsolete. It's not, it's not really 40 years of experience that matters. It's, it's really what's the last 40 days, what's the last 40 weeks? Because technology is changing that quickly..."
