WE NEED TO MANAGE WITH DATA!

DO WE HAVE ANY USEFUL DATA?

NOT REALLY.

SO... ACTUALLY, WE NEED TO GET DATA BEFORE WE CAN USE DATA.

WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR YOUR ANALYSIS PARALYSIS!

I THINK YOU'RE TAKING BOTH SIDES OF THE SAME ARGUMENT.

YOU INSIST ON USING DATA, BUT YOU DON'T WANT TO WAIT FOR DATA.

IT'S CALLED LEADERSHIP.

YOU WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND.

, I THINK I DO STOP BEING SUCH A MASK HOLE.
