gshayd Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 If you are an employee going to decide how the company makes it money legally then the loss of revenues based on your decision should be reflected in your paycheck just like the shareholders.

MontanaLon Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 The way I see it 50 employees just signed their severance papers. I bet the other 134,450 employees are going to have to work an extra 30 seconds a day to make up for the loss. See ya! And in case they were wondering, if they put their name to the "letter" it cannot be considered to be a "black list" when they can't find a job anywhere else. The "military/ industrial complex" has far reaching tentacles and this will follow them anywhere they choose to pursue employment. "We don't want to be part of killing the enemy in war" freaking pussies, members of the "lamest generation". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

towtruck Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 I could see some top level designers sabotaging some programs if they felt they were going to be sold to the military. Those people that signed that letter need to hit the bricks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris645 Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Don't like what the company you work for does............................quit and find another job. Don't like what your country does.............................pack up and find another country to live in. I just don't understand people in the minority who don't "get" that they don't rule the roost. Stupid idiots. Face reality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Recondo 101 Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 The history of Microsoft and Billy Gates speaks for itself and the employees now want to lay claim to some form of moral high ground as employees. The idiots actually have deluded themselves into believing their signature on employment documents at MS gives them, by some Voodoo, a high moral standing in the real world.

Srgt. Hulka Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 (edited) They should not have even been allowed to return to their desks. They should have immediately been escorted to the front door, a boot put in their ass, and the door locked. Then, have security clean out their desks and mail their personal belonging to them. They would have been seen as an immediate security risk. Edited June 4, 2019 by Srgt. Hulka 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
