It was another bloodbath at Home Office Tuesday. I got calls from several AM's who were fired. These were not losers, mind you. These are hardworking people who did the best they could with what they were given. So, less than 100 AM's left now. The strategy is that the remaining AM's will glean all the biz left by the departing reps. You would think these assholes would know that this doesn't work. It's been proven over and over. The AM's left are not going to leave their comfort zones and drive all over creation and back to grab a few extra sales from a foreign office. Not gonna happen. The offices got spoiled by all the in-person service. Suddenly they are going to work by FAX with some AM they might hardly ever see? Riiight. These clowns should realize that as their AM's left or got fired..sales dropped, and profits disappeaed altogether. This Jack Welch bewannabe narcissistic CEO Knosin Mr. MBA from Colorado State...his best game is to try and slash expenses faster than the income falls so at least on paper it looks like a turnaround. Here's a clue John...that works for about 1 Quarter, then your Board will figure out the paper game you're playing. When nothing is left...then watcha gonna do? You're CEO of a company 1/2 the size of what it was 2 yrs ago..amnd falling fast. Captain of the titanic and ally ou are doing is rearranging the deck chairs while the band plays on. You have a few bright stars still there...and you should have put THEM in a position of authority to make changes rather than bringing in your cronies and people from other industries who don't know the game. Only now, a year or so later are you maybe figuring out that thise clowns were clueless...and they are falling by the wayside 1 by 1. One of the smartest guys in the company,,,decades of experience...is leaving because he just can't stand seeing what is happening here. Talk about an instance of gross negligence...he should have been a VP years ago..he's forgotten more about DME than you will ever know. The company is so full of contradictions I can't begin to count. If a few of your remaining stars lose some insurance covereges, of get smart and go 1099 ( call me....I have better and broader insurance in-net coverages than RS DOES!!!..and a wider product portfolio, too!) RS will tank so hard that your unborn Grandchildren will feel the pain!
How DESPERATE are you as a CEO that you have to broadcast the fact that you sold your SECOND HOME IN NEW HAMPSHIRE so you can spend more time in Vancouver....oh, my poor thang. Are you KIDDING me? You are FIRING people by the SCORE, losing the company MILLIONS....Dec is a RECORD loser....and you tell people that you are selling your VACATION home. Most of the people you told that gem to are hoping to keep their ONLY home safe! Of they've already been fired and are counting the weeks until they run out of money. Your sacrifice is overwhelming. So John....how's the Northeast doing for you? Once a star, solid numbers, profits. Now...NO managers from Ohio eastward and South to MD. NY has 2 AMS left to cover ALL of NJ, 5 Boroughs, LI ! And 1 of them is tanking hard. Your new manager..14 mos maybe....got hired and had NO idea what he was doing. The rest sit at home doing paperwork all day covering their asses. Tommy B..a survivor..gets out EVERY week and rides with reps..sells accounts...digs out and fixes problems. YOU hired a VP who trash-talked his own people and chased the good managers away. At least HE left before he got fired. So here is a "premiere" pain management company with 2 barely breathing reps in the best market in the country! But as CEO..I'll bet you can't even tell us what insurers we have and don't have there. You have a gaping CHASM in what should be the best market in the country! Your response...fire the managers so nobody is left to even turn out the lights.
Rick T..TAKE YOUR COMPANY BACK and fire this self-serving fraud of a CEO. Get the last remaining sane people there together, hire back the good ones who were canned, and get the company back on track.
