stock to 60, so what?
More layoffs still to come. Q is sitting on massive cash stock pile, they had zero financial need to do layoff's, it was just straight greed. The stock could hit 100 and still they would trim. The reality is "we're at a pivot point", which will not... — read more

Non engineers fall behind inflation
No merit increase for non engineers mean they fall behind inflation. Merit really just keeps us at par with inflation.
ARMH's earnings was pretty good. Mobile business picked up.
I think we'll do well in Q3, given the already low expectations that the Street is expecting from us. I'd say after earnings, we'll be above $60/share again. Cool. My resting and vesting will result in even more money.
While resting and vesting, I'm using my work hours for my own side businesses.
Who else is doing the same? Its great to be able to collect the qcom rest and vest welfare check. Even better than when I was at Motorola
