FB gives $1000 to every employee

3 some Uniti, Windstream, Elliot Management

What a joke. Judge Drain is a typical judge who rather a plea bargain then have to rule in courts merits of right and wrong. Maybe the coronavirus will delay trial and allow corrupt management to earn more.

Failed Mergers from the LR 5

'Detroit-based Rocket Fiber acquired by Everstream' Good to see companies that aren't like WINMQ or Frontier acquiring similar companies that have much better leadership in place than the LR 5. How many failed 'mergers' did the LR 5 preside... — read more
