2318.0. "KO completely gone from DEC?" by SCAHUB::RESENDE (Y R U U?) Fri Jan 08 1993 19:12

    This falls under the category of non-urgent, but interesting
    historically.
    
    It was my understanding, mostly from this conference, that KO was
    having an office built at STOW and would be moving there, presumably to
    take on a role of speaker and general representative.  I notice
    that he is no longer in ELF at all.  Can anyone shed any light on when
    KO left ELF and presumably the company?  I thought he was still
    onboard, albeit not as President and board member.  I assume now that
    he's completely gone.

    define "left the company"
    I believe his private plane still helps hold down the cement floor
    inside the corporate hanger at Hanscom.
2318.2Not an employee == not in ELFSMAUG::GARRODFrom VMS -> NT; Unix a mere page from historySat Jan 09 1993 17:465
    KO 'retired' so he is longer a DEC employee. My guess is that he is a
    consultant or contractor. I wonder how much he gets paid for this. I'm
    also curious as to what he is doing in Stow for the company.

Ken is definately alive and well and living in Stow.  Since he is no longer 
a DEC employee, he is no longer in Elf or the Employee File.  But we see
him fairly regularly and he is looking good!

    	I dunno...why don't you ask him? Not that I'd blame him if he 
    	said 'None of yer bizness' as to how much he gets paid. Personally
    	I think that $1 Million/year is about right. Hell, we manage to lose
    	more than that DAILY!

Thanks for clarifying this.  Can one still send him email?

2318.6Also has an office in MaynardICS::KAUFMANNLife is short; pray hardMon Jan 11 1993 17:415
    Ken also has an office in a small brown house on the PKO campus in
    Maynard.  I've seen him there a couple of times, and once had an
    opportunity to shoot the breeze with him.

I don't think so, but you should be able to reach Ann Jenkins who is his
right and left hands!!

	I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't do anything at all for Digital,
	despite the fact that Digital gives him office space. I understand 
	that such an arrangement is not unheard of for a retiring CEO or 
	President of a large company.

	Regarding the plane at Hanscom. With the sales of some of the 
	corporate fleet, I'm sure that there is plenty of room for it...
	I believe it is for sale, if you are referring to the Cherokee-6. 
	Hope he has some time to enjoy putting a few hours on it before 
	it sells..

2318.11whos paying Ann?USCTR1::CCANTONCYNTHIAWed Jan 20 1993 17:495
    If Ann Jenkins is still working with/for KO, I wonder who is paying for
    her services...or maybe she just gets bonuses :') (reference to bonus 
    notes in this conference)

2318.12Bonus? No way!AIMHI::PMURPHYFri Jan 22 1993 15:462
    .11  No, I don't think she receives bonuses; she's a secretary.
