I wonder what the story is here

Quote:
LG Motorsports;
[B]Breaking News, GM Road racing boss, Steve Wesoloski was FIRED and word is that he was escorted out of GM by Security on Wednesday. Computers confiscated plus his Company car. Security then called him a cab. [/B]

Karma is a funny thing.

And the word is that there are more heads to roll.

PS, Yes we had a hot weekend at Long Beach.

Later

It's not all that uncommon in any field (especially involving computers) that people in high places are escorted off premises by security after they are let go even on amicable terms but, the company car and especially the "confiscation" of computers" certainly does sound odd.

It will be interesting to see what comes of this.

I agree. In the computer field, it's not uncommon for someone who is terminated to be escorted from the building upon being let go. A disgrutled, unprincipled tech employee can do a great deal of damage.

What strikes me, is this guy was immediately removed. Yet, many CEOs when they are fired are given an office for some period of time, along with their golden parachute.

I'm really tired of the double standard.

Look on the bright side, without Obama's mettling, that number would've been 4,001,600 jobs lost.

Sorry to hear about the job losses. I know it's affected my family, so I feel for those guys.
