Rest and vest, rest and vest 3.0 beta!!!!
Thank you qualcomm, for sponsoring my H1-B a decade ago. I've been enjoying the rest and vest all these years, both through the bad times and good times. And one thing is constant. Sell to retail buyers, buy the things I want, leave a lot left over for my kids, enjoy the american life, and laugh all the way to the bank.
"sell to the retail investors". I love that line so much. Q borrowed $10 billion to buy back stock, mostly to offset RSU dilution, and ended up destroying far more than $10 billion in market cap. Putting out fire with gasoline, baby. By their own logic, Rest N Vesters would be happy if QCOM hits $20. Hey, it's free money remember!!! Opportunity cost be damned.
Oh and you lost that tiny shred of credibility once you said you are in the public sector teaching. Talk about having you head up your ass with theoretical bullshit that isn't profitable. And you are complaining about q's profitability? Lol. You don't even know what profit is..
For Christ sake, you work in the public sector as a leech. What would you know about profitability?
: @G4WlCdw-1jhl. I think the irony is that while you might think I am a shitty character in the private sector, you seem like an equally shitty character in the public sector.
Only you are the lowest of the low, because you are a shitty character in an academic environment that has a direct shitty influence on our younger generation.
Now that's pretty pathetic and low.
@G4WlCdw-1jhl. In other words, you make shit, you depend on public tax dollars, you can't make it in the real world, that's why you are in academia. And because you are so financially successful (not), that's why you hang out on Qualcomm layoff board.
Lol, old timer at Qualcomm is basically like tenureship, except we don't get paid shit. After all, this is the real world.
I feel sorry for your students. I can't possibly be worse parent than than you are a shitty teacher.
Those that can, do...those that can't.....teach....
You misunderstood something.
I am tenured faculty at UCSD in a well-paid department (needless to talk about the extra NSF grants). Do you know what tenure means?
LIfetime job, 20 hours work per week+ traveling abroad for free+ 4-5 months holiday per year.
Go away idiot.
Lol at the retards who have not travelled abroad and claim that carmel valley is nice. Poor guys, visit Europe to see some really cool places where you can also eat nice food.
@G4WlCdw-1itj, bingo.
@G4WlCdw-1oyt, uh huh. Yes maybe you can borrow @bitterlandlord's "envyfluenza" phrase. If it makes you feel better THINKING people are jealous of being an old timer troll...carry on I guess.
Irrespective of your wealth, if you claim that Carmel Valley is something exceptional then you are dumb.
@G4WlCdw-1bzd....how funny -- another clearly dissatisfied "wealthy" dude who lives in Carmel Valley and endlessly trolls layoff boards. Big deal...1 million or 10 million. Hard to be jealous at any old timer like yourself who can't buy class, or the cure to his own bitterness. keep gloating bitter old timer buddy. Hopefully your kids don't inherit bitterness.
@G4WlCdw-1xiw, ok smarty, so what exact date and price was the last true stock options
"buy the things I want, live the american life"....you can do this without having to work for PJ. He laughs all the way to the bank, not you and your measly 1 or 2 million net worth.
last time stock options were granted the share price was around $45. great 6 year journey to 10% gain. "Free money! Free soda!", said the fat lazy rest n vesters.
You bunch of whiners are pathetic. You are like animals that are fighting over rotten carcass (qcom). If you are not happy and your skills are sharp just leave,. They are plenty of good companies out there. They hire H-1Bs as well. There is no excuse to stay in a crappy environment.
Old timer wise words. Its foolish to leave a company with a boatload of in he money stock options no matter how shitty you think it is.
Because going to.another company will be great... For the first 6 months to 1 year. But after the initial moonlighting, you'll end up.complaining about the same bureaucracy, bullshit, corporate politics, and question the company's future the same way you complained about your previous employer.Except at least with your previous employer, they gave you a lot more money.
Old fart already learned what naive youngster hasn't yet learned...the same smelly corporate shit you hate.at.one employer exists at the next one. You just haven't been exposed to.the bathroom stalls until you get there.
And the golden rule is, whichever company pays you the most to do the least amount of work to allow you to achieve f--- you status quicker is the only thing that matters. Then you can do whatever the thing you want, because you can say the two most powerful words without consequences that everyone strives for.... F--- you.
@G4WlCdw-jqw. Actually, because I don't work as much as most of you in front of a computer screen, I do have a life and do spend time in the gym or at the beach. So old timer looks better than a lot of you obese people that spend 60+ hours in front of a screen guzzing down all that free soda.
Well may be you are that old pig, who eats a lot and doesn't do much.

where are the brilliant old-timers to tell us that they left QC 10 years ago when they realized that the company stopped innovating? come on guys, you are genius and we look forward to your wise words.
Lazy rester vester laughs your less than 1000share short position won't allow you to retire. So who cares. Stock options on the other hand
...
lazy rest n vesters ruined company. shorts thank you
Lazy rester vester wins either way because stock options is free money. Chaching
you probably sold to guys covering short positions from $70s.
lol, remember when it was $82. such lazy rest n vesters helping bring down the stock.
Oh, I forgot to say that Xiaomi goes in house and thus the price will drop to $20
But according to this forum, Q is in death spiral and Wall Street does not see any growth opportunities for the company. How come the stock is back to 50s?
