Re: No kleenex for Lisa Hook But who's the bigger fool: her for her failures or the companies that continue to hire her?
I've said it again and again: it's not about what you can do; it's about who you know. This especially applies at the executive level. As long as those who hire someone see an increase in the price of the stocks they hold, they're happy. So what if the company burns to the ground. By then, they're cashed out and on to the next venture. Sure, the employees get screwed, but that doesn't matter. After all, they're disposable, and, since they don't come to the shareholders' cocktail parties, they're also invisible, just liabilities on a balance sheet. |
