The few people from legacy Dook who aren't too good to talk to us say that Bill Lee was awesome. Bill Johnson was the same way, but Jim Rogers and the board conspired against him before the merger. Johnson was to be the new CEO of the company after the merger, but he only made it about 20 minutes before the board voted him out and reinstated Rogers. The NC Utilities Commision came within a gnats ass of undoing the merger unless Rogers stepped down. They named Lynn Good as CEO, then Rogers stepped down and supposedly went to Africa to help some pigmy tribe set up an electrical system. Mr.'s. Good has done a decent job, but there's too many idiots between her and those of us out being the face of the company.
Bill Johnson moved on to be CEO of the TVA for several years, then got recruited to be CEO of PG&E long enough to see them thru bankruptcy over the forest fire stuff. Bill is one of those bosses who made you feel like you worked with him, not for him! He's kicked back taking it easy now. Enough hijacking.....lets get back to retiring!
