JEA Managing Director and CEO Aaron Zahn fired with cause

[Steve]

I looked up her profile on 'Linked In' to see where she went to school.  Undergrad at UF then ONE YEAR at Dartmouth. Then "Vice President" at JP Morgan Securities. I assume she started lower on the totem pole and worked her way up.   I mean is she seriously brilliant or well connected?   $442,000 in Jax goes a long way.

I mean, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and Mark Zuckerberg aren't college grads.

Being genuinely brilliant is not reserve for Ivy League Graduates.

I think Nate Monroe nailed it with his column yesterday:

Side Note - Nate Monroe may be better than Ron Littlepage....which IMO is some VERY high praise. To that point if you can't read the article because you don't have a subscription, pay the $10/month and at least get a digital one.

Titles in the banking industry are not congruent to other industries.  Vice President is just a manager, and that might have been her title when she exited and she chose not to list all the positions leading up the that.

Nate is one of the great Jacksonville columnists of all time. His voice was much needed and he came along and just the right time.
