You were a manger before the age of 25?

How much food did you hold, and which barnyard animals partook of it?

Or did you play a manger in a play about the birth of Jesus?

Hell, IIRC, IBM had a policy of no involuntary layoffs well into the
1980s. Different times, I guess.

OK, you have some issues with IBM. That doesn't answer the question
as to
why liberals, generally, are down on corporations. What would their
alternative be?

As a retired soldier, I can tell you that the government isn't the
greatest
at keeping promises either.

I was a stock holder too so I was on both sides of the issue.

I also agree, we better get used to the government going back on their
promises too.

If there isn't one already, perhaps someone will initiate a database of
corporate inequities perpetrated on employees. Why shouldn't a
prospective employee be able to quickly look up and compare how various
employers treat their workers? If a corporation has welshed on retiree
benefits, a job seeker would know that and dismiss promises made in that
area. If there are frequent layoffs, that should be known, too, along
with sexual harassment or discrimination suits, et cetera.




Harry,
You have more time than anyone I know. You spend all of your time in
here and hardly ever go boating. You could do that and actually be
productive in supporting one of your positions. It would make more
sense than bitching about everything.

I don't want to say who is right or wrong but IBM was very clear with
me that their job was to return profits to the stockholders, not look
out for employees. If the two were not contradictory they did both but
when push came to shove, they "shoved" the employee. In my case (and
about 20,000 of my peers) that shove was out the door. Then they
regeged on most of the promises they made about our retirement.

Translation: We sucked everything out of you we could, now we're cutting
you loose and we're not going to keep the commitments we made about your
retirement, either.

Thank you, and f*ck you.

I thought you had a sweetheart employment contract at Ullico? Weren't you
on the golden boy list at that ah small company? Didn't you get in on
some killer stock deals with MCI, Tyco, Enron, and a few others. Isn't
that why you can afford the double wide manufactured home in Calvert
County?



Drinking again?


Again??
Did he ever stop?



Down, boy. Good puppy!
