“Who would have thought they would close one of their most profitable plants and move the product lines to facilities that can't even get enough members to run what they have.”


Owensboroemp you make a good point about the plant closing. Consider this, who would have thought they would……..

+ appoint an immature, incompetent, neurotic personnel manager to head this company.

+ select a CEO with Askren’s record of performance at Mt. Pleasant (he was transferred to save him from the wood pile) and at Allsteel where after spending mega bucks on that did not produce Michaels saved his boy again with transfer of highly profitable HON product to Allsteel.

+ have a Board of Directors would not remover Askren for performance, abusive behavior and/or sheer in incompetence.

+ let this guy dismantle company in company in a way that undermines its strategic future.

+ leave in place all those Askren sycophant vps and the bloated Board of Directors while slashing and burning members and facilities.

Quoting ALS19 again, “Smart Now... Smarter Later.... My Askren!”

Trizzle trazzle trazzle trone, time for this failed Pretend CEO to go home, permanently! Help Mr. Wizard!!!!!!!!!!"
