The NY offsite was during this person's first few weeks at Whatnot. They were nervous and a little socially awkward (self proclaimed). After the kick off they were walking out of the meeting room and saw Grant walking out with another employee so they took the opportunity to introduce themself to Grant, but didn't really acknowledge the other guy. It wasn't until later that day when he was on stage with a mic that I realized the "other guy" next to Grant when they introduced themself was LOGAN. Been mortified ever since.
