Comments on: Bad Behavior Rewarded: The Incentive to Misbehave http://newamericanmarketplace.com/159/ Your Survival Guide to the New American Marketplace Fri, 01 Jan 2010 06:33:11 +0000 hourly 1 By: Eileen Glastein http://newamericanmarketplace.com/159/#comment-65 Eileen Glastein Mon, 14 Dec 2009 01:13:16 +0000 http://newamericanmarketplace.com/159/#comment-65 Sorry, I am a bit more in the mixed feeling arena. What was the purpose? If it was just to make herself feel better, fine. We all know Corporate America sucks. I recently read an article by a VP of Blue Cross Blue Shield where he said "there is no such thing as long term employment". My son has worked there for 4 years and was quite astonished to see this attitude in writing. Getting back, if she wanted just to make herself feel better, ok. To make an impact, come on, who doesn't know the bank credit card companies are vicious. A reality of our times. Yes, nice person to be proud of. Jobs are hard to come by, I'd like to see her reaction in 6 months. Sorry, I am a bit more in the mixed feeling arena. What was the purpose? If it was just to make herself feel better, fine.

A wonderful example of corporate insensitivity. I too know all of this about Bank of America. I also hope that the employees that they required to work through their lunch times - without the benefit of compensation - win their class action lawsuit. I pulled all of my money out of Bank of America. I hate the way they treat the very customers that helped them reach their success. They are a perfect example of "American Greed." If there were more people like this young lady in this video - if there were more people that voiced their opinions - I wonder if all the voices could make a difference? I would hire this woman for my business in a heartbeat. I applaud her courage and her convictions. Her Mom and Dad surely did "the right thing." They gave her values and a moral conscious. WOW.

I applaud this young lady for standing up for what she believed in. I recall my father being asked to provide his educational level when recently applying for a home loan. Not convinced that's relevant or appropriate. Wow! I applaud this young lady for standing up for what she believed in.
