Profitability Solution







Well then just RETIRE! Make way for the young and aggressive business folks. The only way to move Hospira forward is with new and fresh strategies and razor keen execution. Quit hanging on, let people who care join the company. As for those gray and tired sales reps, I will gladly buy you a cup of warm milk at the NSM.

Looks like the way of the young and aggressive folks has hit a bump in the road. Your razor keen aggressive behavior seems to be getting dull. There must be something that I am missing. Refresh an old timers memory, is the price of stock suppose to go down. I guess it would look better in your mind to restart at the bottom. I do feel for the folks in N.C. I would only imagine that they were following the orders of mgmt.
 


















HI There young feller. I'm one of the useless deadbeats who have been following your posts with amused interest. First I doubt you even are employed by Hospira I believe you one of the pathetic little pencil dicks who go on company boards just to see how many people you can piss off because in reality you really are a pathetic little puke who can't get a date except with a Playboy magazine. However if you really do work for hospira and are part of the sales force why don't we figure out how we may meet to discuss this in gentlemanly manner at the next national meeting.

hey tough guy you ain't so tough on here now.
 






I CAN'T BELIEVE ALL THE HITS ON THIS OBVIOUSLY BOGUS POST THAT WAS STARTED BY A LOSER LOOKING TO STIR UP THE POT I UNDERSTAND YOU USE THIS BOARD TO VENT BUT CMON YOU MORONS DONT KNOW THE FAKE THREADS , OH THATS RIGHT YOU DO WORK FOR HOSPIRA (ABBOTT LITE) WHEN ABBOTT FIRED YOU AND YOU WENT TO HOSPIRA AND STAYED (ESPICIALLY AFTER THE 2 YR PERIOD)THEN ABBOTT DIDN'T WANT OR NEED YOUR SORRY ASS !! THE SLACKERS AND BUMS THAT ARE LEFT ARE BEING WEEDED OUT WITH "PACKAGES" OR TERMINATIONS FOR CAUSE GET USED TO IT AND BEND THAT ASS OVER EVERY DAY STAY OFF THIS BOARD AND JOB HUNT DOUCHE BAGS

As you can see, they didn't listen to me and now, four years later, they still troll here ! Look at this threads strings and you'll see the mentality of a some real idiots! These same morons have thousands (no joke), just like this one What a World!
 






Hey, didnt the top dogs take their stock options already at stock highs?

A quick look at historic stock prices shows 2005 levels currently and dropping fast. The 2004 numbers and spin price seem soon on the horizon. YTD alone the stock is off over 30% from the DOW. It all seems very obvious now doesnt it.

Come on buy out! The big H's stock is in a free fall!

Dont worry Lake Forest I am sure the purchaser will keep the subject matter experts who let us here. Hospira used to be Abbott of course, doesnt that mean we used to be someone!

Hahahhahahahahahhahahahahahhahaha

The ADC troll is born !
 






Fool Joey,
The issue is not about old versus young...as you started this thread. Well run companies rely on experience (me) to make good business decisions and look to new ideas (you) to make continuing good business decisions in an evolving workplace.
The issue is about integrity and keeping your word. Something most American businesses has forgotten and will pay for....

I have 20 years with Abbott/Hospira. Multiple National/Regional All-Star winner. My pension was frozen in 2005 with about 14 years credit. I still have in my brief case the "Letter to the Shareholders" from Miles White and Chris Begley on the seperation. And it says this:
(Since your in sales and should be good with numbers, look at these, Joey:) Based on the money I was making at that time my retirement benefit was $45,000/year. In reality, my frozen retirement is a little over $8,000/year, without retiree medical.

That number is frozen. If I ever took a proposal into a hospital where the benefit to that hospital was actually $8,000 each year instead of $45,000 each year I could guarantee myself a significant loss in business over time.....because of my bad decision, my lack of integrity so to speak....

I had a VP tell me 35 years ago, "Nothing is forever and always"....which was so true. Back then that company had to shut down our facility. Back then, that VP, kept his promises to his employees. That organization still does good today.

Greatness is not based on how big your company is or how fast it grows. Greatness comes from making the right decision at the right time, every day.

That is what Chris Begley and Terry Keaney and the rest lacked....integrity, in a word.

Joey, I'll be OK for retirement, I spent less than most, saved and invested diligently and done well. I am just afraid most of my colleagues have not. I hope you do too.


MEOW kitty troll
