TI made 17 million dollars per day PROFIT last quarter. Apparently that isn't enough.

But Rich is on the board of directors right? Cant he influence these decisions? Has anyone gotten a clear answer for why we're continuing to layoff every quarter? We had a good earnings report! confused

Mr. CEO is just enjoying of being surrounded by “Yes Men/Women”. He can be the smartest person in the world but either people are afraid to tell him when he’s wrong, or he won’t listen. If we keep going this way the whole ship is gonna go down, we just have to get to the “right” iceberg.

Can we bring back Crutcher? I miss his morning coke inspired pep talks and s-xcapades. He had da juice!

I posted a comment over on Seeking Alpha a few years ago shortly after Rich retired on a TI stock story telling people how bad management had become and that they kept ramping up spending one quarter, then quickly cutting spending the next. I'll never forget some doch guy replied to my comment and threatened to find out who I was so TI lawyers could sue me for "insider trading" comments or some such nonsense. The guy said he was a retired TI manager with quite a bit of stock. That's basically what TI became after Rich retired: A vehicle for the stockholders to bleed dry. Who cares about investing in employees as long as retired managers and investors get their sweet, sweet dividends and capital gains?
