"In this economy it's all about taking care of oneself "

So badmouth the company you work for and help to drive profit margins lower (or losses higher) - leading to further losses for the company. You are creating a self-fulfilling prophecy.

The company shouldn't have any kind of loyalty for employees such as yourself.

I stand by my previous statement. You should quit the company.

Yup! Dhemz my boyz!! ^ ^ ^

I STILL don't understand what you're selling, el? Are you the Minister of car sales? I ask that because of your e-mail address which for those that can't see it begins with ark of the (arkofthe@etc.com)
What do YOU stand to gain by posting this stuff?

It's called Benjamin Franklins.

The automobile business has changed & if you’re not loyal to your own pocket book then you are truly naive. Loyalty begins with being true to yourself so @ days end you can count your bank account in that order.___ Loyalty for a corporation is first & foremost to stakeholders / shareholders & executive board / top executives. "The greatest reward in life is to live well" Grab rewards that you work hard for but don't be naive to point of graveling in mud for peanuts unless you’re a masochist. Go read some high level business entity like Peter Ducker ( Peopleand Performance - The Best of Peter Drucker on Management ) but without advanced business degree’s I’m certain you will find reading difficult.

Cool


Ah! So you are the Minister of Capitalism then? I understand now.

But again you have completely ignored (*edit*: sorry, brain fade) my question: What's in this for YOU?

I must say though that you don't write like you have an advanced degree in anything. You repeat things very well though. You are good at slinging the insults too.

This "guy" reminds me more of the mep every time he posts.
How long should we play along fellas? I'll leave it up to you.

Business reading difficult? Ha. Try Fluid Mechanics, Heat Transfer, Differential Equations, Mechanics of solids, etc.

I think you'd be surprised at the education level on this forum. I hold a BS Mech Engineering and a Master's in Science in Product Development. The people in the business school @ GMI (now Kettering) were the ones who couldn't make it in Engineering.

Funny thing is you're not loyal to your pocketbook. You're badmouthing the company that keeps that wallet of yours filled.

I'm thinking you're a disgruntled former employee of Mazda.

BTW...Drucker's ideals had nothing to do with what your theme of look out for #1.

To quote Peter Drucker

"The best way to predict the future is to create it."

"To focus on contribution is to focus on effectiveness."

If you do indeed still work for Mazda Sales - why don't you concentrate on doing your job better and help to sell more cars rather than trying to dilute any profit that might be made on the cars already being sold.
