Understand what happened…
On Friday (21), João Ricardo called a client from the group #HurbKdMeuFlight. In the images that went viral on the internet, João made some threats and complained to the customer.
“I pulled your whole capybara. You don't even know how to speak, you retarded, asshole (…). He is happy not to travel. It’s risky for someone to knock on your shitty house today, you idiot”, said the executive to the client. He himself posted the video in the aforementioned WhatsApp group.

The former CEO ended the text by quoting the song “Till I Collapse”, by rapper Eminem. The rapper says in the song that you need to find strength and “search within yourself” to “not give up”.
Octavio Brissant will assume the position until the company votes on a definitive name. He is head of the administrative board.
João Ricardo remains the founder and main shareholder of the company.
