"Down times aren't about getting rid of risk but managing risk. New and exciting product is what's going to sell, even in a recession," he said


UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!

"New and exciting product is what's going to sell".

Not when they write it like that. Never mind how the fool is so out of touch with reality, even the plausibility of me in a kinky orgy with the cast of "American Gladiators" is a greater likelihood: In a recession, people do not spend.

:dunce:

If the gerbil-brains can't even make it sound exciting, using their typical grab bag of bony honky butt limbaughian catchphrases, it's no frigging wonder the economy is going down the toilet.


:grr:

3. I've given up on getting a job because of their attitude.
They are not logical. They make up meaningless rules; they don't tell you what the rules are, and then fire you for violating said rules.

They are completely illogical. It drove me crazy.

Corporate America is a mediocracy. They can't stand educated and competent people. They will be sure to get rid of them.
