My bro in law works for them. I saw the 65,000 dollar check he was presented at their banquet (so 35k was tax hit for him) He has a ton of big boy toys and stuff all paid off. Works 7&7 on a production site in the marsh.

I already looked. No openings.

When they have them it's probably like Southwest Airlines--10 applicants for every opening.

Great news.

They frick the vendors by not paying their bills on time and renegotiate to bring bring prices down because they aren't making any money.




Seriously, WTF. As a vendor of theirs, I'm scratching my head to figure out why we were strong armed into lowering our rates earlier this year.

Companies that do this think they are being smart.


We'll make it up in other ways, we always have.

because every other company is renegotiating their rates, why Should one company have to pay even more just because they are doing better than others?
