context is everything. Just because you do something that is good, does not mean that people cannot just publicize part of it and make it look bad.

True but their agreement expired in August.

honestly, not much. But I am positave that when he does die... he will goto a place that would terrify even Baal himself

love being in GA. At will laws may be greeat for companies, but they also mean that NC agreements are null and void.

I have been trying to find out how many people as well.
Post if you find out.

Maybe we need a job czar to help enforce that iron curtain as well, maybe just a minister of the interior

it is your choice how you "dollar vote."
There are choices. My cable modem is 2wire. I just called charter and they are replacing my hd dvr/reciever.
You choose who you support as a consumer. It is your choice where your money goes and we as consumers have forgoitten that the market can work if we actually take an interest in how we vote these companies into power.
You vote to keep people out of work, that is absolutely your choice.

they are trying to make their bonuses

Cant say im surprised after reading their letter to congress.
They want to keep Americans unemplyed and sell our jobs overseas.

I truly hope that teh execs at motorla rot in hell with ken lay. (keep people hungry to pad your own bonus, dante didnt even have a layer of hell for that!)

good point.
I hope that they do, As for me, I forgot about that. I need to be sure that my roths and 401k are motorla free.
Time to make a few moves. If I wont have it in my house I sure wont hold their stocks.

"Motorla, meet worldcom; worldcom, meet motorla... hope yall like each other since yall will be in hell together for a long long time!"

What bothers me most about Motorol's behavior here is that there are people who are not drawing a paycheck. Some are on unemployment and they could be back in the ranks of the employed, spending money and helping our economy... not to mention the personal ramifications of no longer being unemployed...
However, Motorola wants to keep these people unemployed. they want to flare their feathers no matter who is hurt in their little a pissing match.
We all wonder what went wrong when some ex husband dresses p as santa, goes to his ex wife's fmaily xmas party and kills 8 people, but when a company tries to do the same thing to thousands, we stand idolly by.
Because of this action, I will no longer allow any motorola product in my house. period.
I have never been an employee of motorola and am not mad because i am one being hurt, but I would want opthers to do this if my former company wanted to keep me poor after laying me off.
Stand up, consumers, and let motorola know that it is time to move past the anger stage already.
