How does Pops have a job?

I like Pops. I like my job. I don’t like all the political correctness of late, but that is small potatoes...I have high hopes for the pipeline...more upside here than negatives

Yeah...I'm with you...Pops is great! Just last week there was a great article by some of the Wall Street analysts saying that the 12 month target price for our stock is now $26. That's just wonderful!

I mean right now it's trading at $18.84...which is a 76% decline from where it was on the first trading day of 2016...but hell if we can crawl back up to $26.00 that will mean we've only lost 67%. Good job Rich!

If I drink enough Papa Pops Kool-Aid this will look better and better!

So...that means that if I invested $10,000 in Alkermes at the start of 2016, today it would be worth $2,400, or a loss of $7,600 dollars. If, on the other hand, I invested $10,000 in the stocks of the Dow, it would be worth $14,600 today, for a gain of $4,600. That's a difference of $12,200.

Yeah...Pops is great. I hope he gets another big bonus this year.

He’s trying to deflect how crappy he is doing as a leader but trying to drive this ‘diversity initiative.’ They are both a joke.
 






Apparently the ‘diversity favoritism’ has been going on for some time. My friend told me that one of the DBLs consistently gives special projects and recognition to a certain rep based on her skin color. Even though she has actually not made the minimum to even be paid several times recently, she was made regional trainer. And then, after a year when the position was open again, he gave it to the rep again without offering it to anyone else. Other regions picked new trainers to get others experience but not this DBL. And now she is in the leadership program. How can she lead when she can’t even make goal herself? Ridiculous. Talk about favoritism / racism.

I heard that he really favors her and always makes excuses for when she does poorly but never does that with any of the other people on the team.

smart person! In today’s environment she should be put on a pedestal. No wait! Let’s make a statue of her and replace statues of Lincoln, Washington, Columbus and others!
