With the stock diving, the big sharks will be spending some serious cash at the Epic hotel. As of today, a room is at $399. Now let's assume 100 people are coming for this gathering, staying for 5 days. Do the maths!

This is a sure sign of a corrupt company that's going down (no pun intended there honest)! Splurging in such a self-indulgent manner when hardworking people are being laid off, having benefits and hours cut, is indicative of top level leadership that is rotten to the core. Then again what would you expect from a CEO who is close friends with a pedophile (Marc Gaffni)
Minardi is a rock star!
LOL Double Fisting Dude you made my day
Looks people! This event was planned for in the budget. We've worked very hard this past fiscal year to totally screw this company and need some well deserved R&R. Did you expect us to vacation in Detroit?
Well, aside from all the cocksucking comments, it truly is a terrible idea to do this. Unless they decided to do this on their personal dollar. Ha!! Yeah right.
I'm sure that Patrick Bradley and Jane Mueller will be on their knees, soaking in that glory.
How many dicks can you suck before you realize what a joke your life is? That's what I'm contemplating right now.
Every shitbag that attends this circus should be fired immediately. #TeamWFM
What a slap in the face to hard working employees.
What an absolute joke this corporation is. #wholefoodsmarket
What a cock sucking fest it will be. Keep throatin it. Say hi to Trott Daddy. #wholefoodsmarket #drinkthekoolaid
Gosh, how much dick I gotta suck to get in on this orgy?
I hope they get stuck in a traffic jam on the Airport Expressway, take a wrong turn and end up in Hialeah, totally confused by the different street numbers. If they stumble into a local bakery they might actually get to enjoy some real homemade pastries and cookies instead of the sugary-sweet sludge we scoop out of a bucket and slap a "Made Right Here" label on.
Good thing that $1 billion the execs borrowed last year is being put to work! Now they are charging their pricey rooms, meals and drinks at the peak winter tourist season in Miami to company credit cards that they can pay off with funds borrowed from investors. Borrowing from one credit card to pay off another. Sounds like the end of the line to me.
Even if we pushed Step 5 pork rinds and all natural soft drinks, the yay-hoos would still prefer the cheap ones they get at Family Dollar along with the crappiest artificial grape soda they can find. They want the cheapest eggs, cheapest snack cakes and cheapest meal they can find. Quick, let's open more stores in backwaters so we can change the world.
It's hilarious how much money is spent on this. The folks are trickling in now and all are uploading pics on Facebook and Instagram of cocktails and the hotel how luxurious it is.
It's nothing but a party and little drunken slumber party to them. Wonder how many drinks and dinners on their pcard? And they could care less what the stores look like so FL region just wasting labor. They just want the free diners and drinks and to catch up with the homies in other regions
This has turned into a big waste of labor down here..stores are sending tl and stl to help coordinate efforts at the target visit spots..and the already struggling stores then suffer staffing issues...shitshow and money blown..mobile alabama and pork rinds would have saved a lot of money..
Good thing they chose the height of the season to pay top prices for rooms. Why didn't they hold the Tribal gathering in Mobile Alabama? That's one of their genius new locations. There's an awesome Motel 6 right there on Airport Blvd.
Just show up in some kind of pseduo-New Age garb and tell the staff you're there for the big consciousness-raising mediation session to raise the overall awareness energy level. Drop a few names. Choose a fake native-American sounding name like "Strong Feather" and then wear a stupid "Hello, My name is Strong Feather" tag with a company logo printed on it to top things off. Don't forget your sandals.
Anyone live in Miami and want to crash the hotel? I always thought it would be hilarious to show up at tribal or whatever and act like you belong there.
We made it, ma!
This may just be the ALL STAR PARADE. I hope you have your ticket!
Maybe they want to bring Zuma Restaurant in some stores after the success of Jugo "Expensive" Fresh.
Cant buy is slip resistant shoes but can pay for this circle jerk..."moving forward "
So, they're laying off people back in september, canning people right and left now to slim down staff, cutting FT people to save spending on insurance benefits. Looks like we can see where the savings are going.
They are gonna stop by that dump of a whole foods on south beach..i have shopped there since it was a wild oats(which was a dump too) that transitioned to whole foods..most of the workers are nice but the managers are absent..and they have the most chaotic and flooded parking lot on the beach..
Not surprised! If there is any substance to this, then what a way to 'FLUSH CASH'. Yet TMs are working lesser hours, with little or no labor surplus. The downward spiral of this evil enterprise continues!
