I guess HP wasn't messed up enough by Carly Fiorina, bringing in Meg Whitman as CEO

[LynneSin]

I see more jobs heading overseas and the stocks tanking even further

1. Poor Carly

couldn't finish the job she started so they're bringing Whitman in to put a bullet in the head.

To think that HP used to be a quality company.

2. Talk about going from the frying pan

into the fire. :crazy: There is a company with a death wish.

[Sanity Claws]

3. What a small club they're in!!

They keep reycling the same old shit at the top. God forbid that someone new be allowed into the top echelon.

4. If at first you don't fail, try try again.

5. How soon before she's fired and they bring in Carol Bartz?

and then how long before Carol Bartz runs for political office in California...

6. time to divest of HP

[Arkana]

7. Holy shit, out of the frying pan and into the greasefire.

8. I don't get this - didn't she have a record of failure

and incompetence at Ebay? Why would this be rewarded?

Nevermind, I guess I see the comedic tragedy of corp america. Someone smarter than I called it the Executive Industry. Supported by BOD's with a revolving supporting cast, of the same characters. They certainly know how to reward each other.

I can only hope I will get as many chances to fail as Meg.

9. A woman who spent $200,000,000 to come in second place for a job that pays $212,000/yr.

What genius decided to hire *this* woman?

10. Funny how there is no mention of the man at the helm that recently lost HP 40 Billion!
