Man you missed the point
Big difference being a consumer and a business owner. If I am a consumer, and I buy a Microsoft product, I care less about what the CEO makes, only is the product a quality product and at a price I am wiling to pay.
But as a business owner, supporting another company that has openly said that it is a direct competitor with my company, that openly states it only want the revenue I can provide and is not going to provide new or better services for the monies I pay is just silly. And to say ignore what the CEO makes,is also silly. If I were Mike and read remarks like that I would up my pay some more and raise the fees of the people who feel it makes no difference to them. You have a obligation to your business, your employees and their families to operate your business in the most effecient manner. Ignoring the competition and costly suppliers is foolish.
PS, to bloomz.....you are not using FTD, they are using you! And if Hillary gets elected, will that change FTD?

To Fox - no, even if you're not a member - it's your business they are after.
I've found a way to make money from them while letting them try to screw me - you're getting screwed for free!
lollollollollol
Getting nervous about that Hillary thang, huh?
I can't stop them
Now looking who's talking about worrying about things you can't control.
I can't stop them for trying to steal my business, but I sure as hell don't have to support them while they are trying.
The real question you need to ask yourself is...could you be making that same money without funding FTD trying to steal yours?
AND, I like Hillary's plans. I think cutting the military spending, bring the boys back home is a great idea. And I think her ideas of using that money right back here in America is another great idea.
THE ONLY THING I DON'T FULLY UNDERSTAND IS HOW MUCH DOES SHE PLAN ON PAYING FOR THOSE PEOPLE KILLED IN THE NEXT TERRORIST ATTACKS? AND WILL THAT MONEY MAKE THOSE PEOPLE COME BACK TO LIFE?

I've asked it and the answer for now is no.
If that changes - I will too.
I also don't see FTD going out of business if I quit. They didn't when you quit, did they?
So- I guess I'm lucky enough (or could it be smart enuf?) to have found a way to make money from them.
It's looking like these days tho there are some alternatives that could be in place - if that happens. Until it does I'll keep on using them like a cheap woman of the night.
Floral whoring at it's finest. It's our inside shop joke, when you are doing everything and anything to make that buck!
