Another example of the perfection of American Corporate morality.
We all know about Wells Fargo
Now, there's Comcast "However, Comcast's behavior in Washington might take the cake. The state's Attorney General has filed an amended complaint alleging that Comcast subscribed more than half of its Service Protection Plan customers without consent since the option was first available in 2011. It frequently enrolled customers without even mentioning the plan, according to the lawsuit, but the worst was when it did -- employees reportedly claimed the $6 monthly service was free, and would even sign people up after they'd explicitly refused it. ....... The Attorney General's Office said that Comcast has repeatedly refused to provide call recordings, and later admitted that it had deleted 90 percent of calls after it had been told to preserve them." https://www.engadget.com/2017/12/25/...=recirculation |

This all does make you wonder what they gave Trump for the Net Neutrality flip tho. Remember Trump worked for them so they are all business associates at some level. |

But you didn't just complain about Cohen, you said "those democrats are sneaky *******s", blaming the Democrats for what one man -- well we don't know what he did, only that a company where he is a VP did sleazy, probably criminal things regarding overcharging. You blamed Democrats, or blamed him in his role as a Democrat, and if you don't know that there are plenty of sleazy corporate executives and as many or more** are Republicans. **There are more corporate executives who are Republicans, so all other things being equal, there are more sleazy and more criminal Republican executives.

The leftist tilt permeates the whole company. Huh. How would you know about the whole company? You deal with what they show on tv, the installer who came out to install the hardware, and the person who answers the phone. As to what they show, most of what Comcast does is rebroadcast entertainment shows that other people make. Do they show leftist sitcoms, leftist cowboy movies, leftist basketball games? If you don't like the news or news-relates shows they show, watch Fox. You can talk about Fox News if you want but that is a very small part of Fox. And tbat's the part I'm talking about. NBC or its parent company has plenty of unrelated parts too. In fact they are selling Fox Entertainment. Selling it off now has no effect on the past. |

Those mindless automatons who go along with an outrageous government, because they are not yet targets, are treasonous cowards. It is obvious to which group most Trump supporters belong. Learn to suppress your cognitive dissonance, wake up and smell the coffee, your country is being hijacked by a criminal, fascist administration. |

You've changed the subject, which had been corporate immorality in a corporation with ONE liberal vice-president, who you seem to have concluded was responsible for the sleazy intentional overcharging that Bob pointed out. Criminal actiions. Fraud. Lying to customers about charges. But now you've changed the topic to things which are totally legal, supposedly liberal executives bring a liberal slant to their news. If more liberals invest their money in radio, tv, and newspapers and more liberals take jobs as reporters and editors than do conservatives, who are you to complain about that? That's free enterprise and freedom. I didn't complain about that. I complained about the selective outrage against NBC when Fox is as or more conservative. (I don't have cable so I know nothing about MSNBC. I stopped watching ABC news a few years ago because it had up to 7 "human interest" stories, instead of the tradition one at the end of the half hour. Trying to compete with Inside Edition, I think it was.) |

And in this case, it's not just baloney, it's nonsense, because bringing up politics when Bob was talking about *corporate morality*, not politics, If you think Republican corportate executives are any more moral you're a fool. Of course it's still relevant. You libs like to rant about business, how bad they are, how they need to be controlled.

It is a charity. Allegedly it is. When you have one that you load up with political hacks, hire your own daughter, hand out business only to those politically connected to you, then I'm not so sure. Has anyone even figured out if all those political hacks employed there even show up for work or how much actual "work" they do? I'm sure there are plenty Reps out there looking for a scandal there and yet they've only been able to "find" one by lying. If you don't see anything wrong with a Sec of State taking $135 mil in donations from Canadians who needed Hillary's approval to sell 20% of the US uranium to Russia, then of course you're a partisan hack or incredibly stupid. Just imagine if Jared Kushner or Rex Tillerson was doing that, what would you say? You'd say it was digusting, they should be locked up. Hillary does it and it's swell.

OK Micky, I've run this by you before. In the town in MD where you live in, if it was found out that a developer that needed a zoning change for a new development had donated $100K to a family charity run by a guy on the planning board, had give $25K to his wife for a speech, and then he didn't disclose it and recuse himself, but instead voted yes, what do you think would happen? And if charges were brought, do you think the lame "I wasn't the only vote" excuse would be any defense? Even if a crime can't be proven, because the Clintons are so slick, at best, it's the worst case of pay to play politics in American history. And it's one reason Trump is sitting in the WH right now, because people were disgusted with her. And I'm disgusted with people that make excuses and claim that it's all just swell. Russians, and you say all is well, that's cool. When you're ready to admit that's wrong, that at best it's the worst example of pay to play in American history, that it should be make illegal, then you'll have some credibility. When you retract the nonsense you had in the precedign post -- actually the most poltical nonsense I recall you posting -- that I point out here, you'll have some credibility. I have my credibility. I've criticized the libs, Hillary above for example and called them out when they are wrong. I've criticized Trump when he is wrong too. You're the one with no credibility and you're going to proceed now to tell us all gain how what Hillary did with that $135 mil is just swell. Hillary's biggest "bundler" funneling mega millions to her) Their networks (MSNBC and NBC) are just PR outlets for the DNC. And FOX and its affiliates are just a PR outlet for the RNC. Again, selective outrage. Yeah, one Fox News to how many ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, WAPO, NY Times, LA Times, Boston Globe, etc? The rightful outrage is that it's lopsided, not that there is favoritism. Assuming your evaluation is correct, now you're criticizing free enterprise. So, isn't that allowed? You didn't have a problem when your buddy Bob F started the thread, criticizing free enterprise. You've changed the subject, which had been corporate immorality in a corporation with ONE liberal vice-president, who you seem to have concluded was responsible for the sleazy intentional overcharging that Bob pointed out. Criminal actiions. Fraud. Lying to customers about charges. But now you've changed the topic to things which are totally legal, supposedly liberal executives bring a liberal slant to their news. Wow, as threads grow, other issues, counterpoints, come in. Did you just fall off the turnip truck? If more liberals invest their money in radio, tv, and newspapers and more liberals take jobs as reporters and editors than do conservatives, who are you to complain about that? I have as much right to complain about the overwhelming lib dominance in the media as you do to bitch about any and all of the crap you bitch about here regularly. |

So yah, life's a bitch and then you die. The day after Comcast non-salaried employees got a $1,000 bonus our bill went up $35. Wife was ****ed, called and got it down. If you have trouble with Comcast they charge to come out and want you to fix it yourself picking up needed equipment. What us old folks do is call them, ask to have the protection plan added then tell them to come out and fix it and cancel the plan after they leave. There will be no bill and the plan cost will not show on the next bill. |

So yah, life's a bitch and then you die. Of course companies set aggressive goals. If they didn't, they'd go out of business. But a company sure as shootin' isn't going to start canning every sales guy that doesn't hit his target. High turnover is incredibly expensive and disruptive to the organization. Effective performance management recognizes that good sales people generally try hard to meet their sales goals. They like the challenge and the reward/recognition/feeling of accomplishment that comes with it. An aggressive goal is one that will require the salesman to stretch to meet it-- increasing sales from existing customers, developing new customers, reactivating former customers, increasing prices, etc. A good sales manager sets reasonable, achievable goals in collaboration with the salesman based on the territory's/region's market potential and the company's product plans. -- Prior to capitalism, people amassed great wealth by looting, plundering, and enslaving their fellow man. Capitalism made it possible to become wealthy by serving your fellow man. - Walter E. Williams |
