Panel 1

Alex, excitedly working on a blueprint of a new automated finance system, says to Sam,

Alex: I think I’ve got a solution for Automattic’s CFO shortage! How about we name Jeremy Klaperman the interim CFO? He’s already working on the VIP Enterprise business unit and is super positive about taking on the role!

Panel 2

Sam looks at Alex with a serious face and says,

Sam: Well, if he’s already invested in the solution, he’s probably ready to implement it. Let’s see if he can handle the chaos of being the CFO without the chaos of WordPress VIP Enterprise.

Panel 3

Robin, the chaos catalyst, bursts into the room with a megaphone, shouting,

Robin: Attention, Automattic! Jeremy Klaperman is now our interim CFO and chaos catalyst! Get ready for some positive finance!
