I am sure you are all aware of this, but J.B. comes from a Sanofi lineage.
Look at what became of that organization while he was there . . . he and Chris burned what was left of it to the ground; he took his golden parachute and bounced.
He is a truly wretched human being, as I had a front-row seat to witness the destruction at Sanofi.
The thing about J.B. is that he isn't just a self-absorbed cretin, he's profoundly incompetent as well.
Seeing that he is forcing you into the field was completely expected and predictable.
Fair warning: you haven't seen the worst of him yet.
