Man, I really want to work for AB now! Get job, fuck up ROYALLY (to the point where your company is loosing MILLIONS of dollars), boss tells me to "go home" and I still get paid and benefits. Anywhere else in the real world and you'd be getting your ass handed to you in the unemployment line. SIGN ME UP NOW! Does anyone here on Sig Forum have that luxury? ______________________________________________________________________ "When its time to shoot, shoot.

Guys, good grief. Why do you do this? No one here can speak authoritatively on this woman's status. You don't know that she's still getting paid. You're making assumptions without evidence. There IS such such a thing as unpaid leave and on top of that, she may have already separated from the company but it has not been announced because it would cause further derision towards a company that seemingly cannot admit their mistake, yet here you are, throwing your hands in the air with this WE CAN'T WIN shit...AGAIN. I want you guys to stop wallowing in this defeatist misery. Please, I am asking you. Please, stop it. We don't know her status, yet some of you have made it to where she's just sitting back collecting a paycheck for nothing. Please, for the love of all that's holy. Stop. | |||

Don't forget the 'We will not go quietly' threat about a week ago. Sometimes I wonder if this will end when the 'T's are either safely ensconced in their closets or hanging on fences like coyotes. I honestly don't care which any longer. Self fulfilling prophecy anyone? | |||

I'm not an expert on this , my guess is the hedge funds are shorting this stock big time, just like they did to the bank stocks recently. | |||

Well, that serves as a warning now doesn't it. Those silent majority protests are a lot more painful than the screaming and flag waving from a small minority. Seems the the LGBTQ "we'll boycott you" would be the least painful option.

The $27 billion in lost market capitalization isn't really costing A-B as much as its shareholders, which in many cases, is us. Even if you don't hold individual shares, there's a good chance you have some exposure through other stock funds. There is also a big difference between market cap and revenue or earnings. The $27 billion, while significant, hasn't come off their bottom line earnings. However, the loss of revenue from the catastrophic decline in sales of BL will absolutely effect their next quarterly earnings significantly and probably their entire fiscal year. | |||

Exactly, but they're too stupid to see that....or Blackrock told them what to do no matter what. SIGforum: For all your needs! Imagine our influence if every gun owner in America was an NRA member! Click the box>>>  | |||

One would think. Problem for A-B is: Even if they did a hard about-face right now: It'd take a long time for them to get those who've chosen to forsake them back again. In the meantime they'd face an unceasing onslaught from the left. "America is at that awkward stage.

It will take forever to get most of those people who quit them back. To wit:
Absolutely, 'Those people won't be back'. All they can do is try and rebrand and get new suckers. | |||

Would be nice if the Target/AB boycott thing kept getting traction. | |||

Former Target exec reveals the 'one item' that sparked consumer firestorm https://www.foxnews.com/media/...d-consumer-firestorm It’s like AB, Target and other companies have all discovered this one weird trick that cost their company billions. | |||

There's no doubt the "tuck-friendly" swimsuit is what set this boycott off. Rainbows and unicorns on T-shirts are kitschy and colorful and not too offensive to most people no matter what they signify support of. But the idea of promoting cross-dressing in a mainstream store like Target is bewildering. It almost has to be a deliberate troll by a hardcore activist within the company that slipped through because nobody in charge was actually paying attention. Hopefully it cost many of them their jobs and careers. That's what would really put an end to this corporate activism quick, a bunch of senior execs losing real money and career status. | |||

Its the OVERT tranny marketing to kids that has set people off. Over and above the love your gay friends stuff. | |||

Probably not something you’d want to push on a CV/Resume when applying for a new job.
