5885: Crooked Employees Of The Month.
Light business news in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…
• You know all those annoying GM ads hawking the employee discounts that are being extended to the rest of us? Well, now reports show GM is suing its own employees for allegedly improperly extending the discounts to non-relatives before the latest promotion. The unauthorized discounts have cost GM up to $450,000. A GM spokesman insisted the timing of the lawsuits and the extended discounts promotion was coincidental. Maybe the automaker will create an Employee Lawsuit savings event.
• GM also announced a recall of 944,000 SUVs, trucks and cars because of potential fires. Maybe the automaker will create a You Recall What We Recall event. Or they could simply hold a fire sale.
• Experts are predicting Kmart will inevitably go extinct following parent Sears’ announcement of a 62 percent drop in 2Q earnings. Lights out for the annoying Blue Light character?
For one month only, you get to sue who we sue.
