Five thousand GE logo clothes in one closet. It is the time you have worn for your company that makes your company so important.
I have lots of GE clothes (no bonus, R&R, or options, just a golf shirt!!!). Will the Company pay me to wear those clothes outside? If not, perhaps a yards sale where I pay others to take the c-ap! Who wants a really inferior hoodie?
I think that Boston Celtics deal was done in January 2017, before things went off the cliff for GE. I think GE is stuck in a multi-year deal there. Remember that was a feel-good thing with the HQ move to Boston.
$7 Million can buy you a new GE CFO for 1 year in compensation or 300 Global Operations contract resources in India, China, Mexico, Hungary or Poland.
I eagerly await the day when basketball players are covered in corporate logos like Nascar cars. They'll eventually move to long sleeves to free up more space to sell. Maybe they'll even sponsor corporate tattoos! And re-name the teams; Ladies and gentlemen, a warm welcome for your Passport 20 Celtics!
Hey, if they stayed in Ct maybe the emblem would be (at same price) on Knicks or Devils vs. Celts....so maybe dont complain so hard
GE employees need to be reminded of all of the money they have lost in their 401K plans every time they watch the Celtics. And who is responsible for laying them off. And who is responsible for hiring them at a lower tier and wage. And who pays their Executives exorbitant wages and gives them golden parachutes when they fail us. And who buys faltering companies but sells profitable divisions to pay off debt that could have been paid off with money squandered to buyback stocks. Etc. Etc etc.
I'm being let go too! At least as far as the internet is concerned
Lunch time in Schenectady....
