Ingram employees:

word, I wouldnt be going after retail though. good luck though, I’m sure thats gotta be making things uncomfortable over there…

LOL RS would take you back

RS cant afford me.

lol … fuck that place

way to hype NOTHING

bro, rumors are flying all over the place. I’m keepin my mouth shut though, I dont want to get you all scurred.

Jeff don’t worry you can come do sales here…

I dont do sales.

Sorry hustle phones…

they really should just rip the band aid off and get it over with.

i heard another one that it was supposed to be 2nd week of feb… u hear that one at all?

i heard they are going to lock the doors and people who left for lunch will not be able to get back in… u hear that one at all?

I dont hustle phones either man. I manage a sales channel. Sure, carrier stocked devices (read: phones/blackberry/WinMo/aircards) are a good amount of our business, but what I really like getting into are the non-stocked solutions/devices. Rugged handhelds like Symbol/Intermec, WWAN, like Digi/Cisco HWIC, embedded products like laptops (especially with the new Gobi chips), and AVL solutions.

yea :ohnoes: They dont like having vendors around when they do it, obviously. I think the dollar daze room has an open schedule next week. sooo…

I heard they are just gonna kick us off the bridge, Sparta style.

ill run across the street

Amen to that. Still looking to buy my house in Erie Co. in the next year, however.

:lol: Ever have one of those days when you look in the mirror and say “damn, where did the time go?” :lol:

So - you IM guys, I’m assuming the sword is still hanging over your necks? :frowning:

ur always welcomed here… when i am not…:spank:

lol

trublue - yea right now its simply rumorville, i think it’ll happen, just don’t know when

Ingram is a great example of corporate greed and why I hate corporate America.

Ingram’s net profit last year was something like $140 million. Despite their surplus hey made tech support pay $5 per tech or $10 per family to attend their shitty picnic. How fcukin cheap can you be? How much is a picnic with burgers and shit for less than 100 people? They pulled that the last 2 years and management got pissed when I refused to go based on principal both times. I’m was never afraid of speaking my mind…not that it accomplished anything there. LOL

Also going back a few years…prior to their outsourcing many tech positions to the Philippines tech support was about 95% cost offset from vendor programs. They had the elite tech support team for free essentially. Yet some bean counter thought it was better to risk vendor backing and put people with VERY little tech knowledge and a language barrier in those positions. I damn near got fired for refusing to train the mannilionaires the mobile wireless stuff. I eventually gave in when I realied they wern’t fuckin around and would shitcan me that moment. I cited it being “unAmerican” as my reason for refusing and I stand by that, but a brotha has to eat.

I’m not just spouting cause I’m bitter about being raped last December by Ingram. I’ll have my day in court over that shit. These are things I ranted about daily to rattle the troops. LOL

Sign of the times, sign of the carnage still to come.

Best of luck to all
