It sounds like Nick Khan approaches his job as President of WWE very similarly to the way Vince McMahon ran things.
WWE President Nick Khan was a recent guest on The Varsity. During the podcast, Khan would express his annoyance with people who say that they are tired. Very similar to McMahon’s disdain for people who sneeze, yawn, or get sick.
“I just don’t understand why any human would do that,” Nick Khan said. “So basically, if someone emails you, typically it’s because they need a question answered or they need something, so you want that person. By the way, it’s in our hiring practice, and Chris Legentil, who is not only our head of comms but our head of talent, Chris is never an out-of-office guy…If you call Chris Legentil at 3 am, he’ll answer first ring and say, ‘Hey, what’s up?’
“In addition to out-of-office email replies that drive me crazy, the ‘Hey, I’m tired.’ That drives me crazy. Everyone’s tired. The ‘Oh, I’m so busy’, I read an article years ago, I’m busy, is really a way of saying I’m important, so assume everyone is busy…No out-of-office replies here, no I’m busy, and no I’m tired.” [H/T: Cultaholic]
