Things are getting worse and worse

Could the online business have saved us?

I probably shouldn’t care about it, however, I can’t believe all the bad business moves they pulled. Correct me if I’m wrong, but BBB seemed to have lost its compass when it came to online business. They didn't know what they were doing at all. Why... — read more

Did the company use some of the monies from the sale to increase the buyback purchases by $300M? If I read that correctly, then I'm p-ss-d. The cash used could have been put to much better use. Although I'm not sure why am I surprised, as always it’s... — read more
