No of course not, he's been at many of them.

You should be banned.

Ahh, many of them eh? I'm sure.

What was he? Sales? What resorts?

This is pretty curious.

Why should I be banned? You're the one who always make stupid predictions, accuses people of being "paid by XXXX" and trolls constantly.

Why does he lie in any other case? He's been repeatedly called out and proven to be lying. Gas, milk, other circumstances. Constantly. He lies, he bullshits, he prognosticates.

He claimed gas was at a certain price, so I called the places he named and got different prices. He claimed milk was a certain price, so I called the places he named and got different prices. It's like that over and over.

Why? Because he wants attention. He wants to feel smart and important. Now, he has a vendetta against me.

I post facts based on articles and personal experience while anonymouse cowards post garbage and rewarded for it by locking my threads and have the anonymous cowards take it's place.

Then you have cowards like above get away with what they do attacking me with absolutely no merit.

Can't be helped. it's the new standard wanted by the site.

Wyndham Worldwide is cutting 4,000 due to a 40% reduction in planned timeshare sales.

This is directly related to the frozen capital markets and the company's inability to finance the receivables.

:(

This got another family member and up until I moved to New Jersey when found a job debi was working for Wyndham, granted it was $8 hr minimum wage it was still work.

Bullshit. I highly doubt you have anybody. They haven't even come out with the list of people cut yet, I know it because I have many friends there, I worked there for 3 years and know the CFO, Treasurer, and worked right next to the CEO/CFO of timeshare.

My brother in law is now looking for work after being cut at Wyndham after 8 years.

I cordially request that the member above be banned.

When the highlight of your life is to post completely inaccurate superthreads on an Internet forum where everyone despises you, and then even that is taken away (hugely enjoyable to watch, thank you moderators!), you'd probably start acting out like a spoiled little brat too. :p

United Tech lowers profit target, cutting 11,600 jobs
1 hr 4 mins ago

BOSTON (Reuters) ? United Technologies Corp (UTX.N) cut its 2009 profit target by about 13 percent and said it would eliminate 11,600 jobs as it no longer anticipates an economic recovery this year.

The world's largest maker of elevators and air conditioners said on Tuesday it expects to earn $4 to $4.50 per share in 2009, lower than the $4.65 to $5.15 per share it previously forecast.

Analysts were looking for profit of $4.60 per share, according to Reuters Estimates.

The new forecast includes 30 cents to 40 cents per share of restructuring charges, as well as some expected one-time gains.

"The economic recovery previously anticipated in the second half of 2009 now appears unlikely," said Louis Chenevert, chief executive of the Hartford, Connecticut-based company.

As of December, United Tech employed about 220,000 people.

Just got layed off withg 222 others from Airframe Systems division of Woodward Governor:( Vicious cycle of economy came around and bit me in the butt. 80 ppl took early retirement, so overall about 27% of our company got whacked in one day, about 50% of layed off ppl are engineers and staff. Next - union firings... when dust settles, it would be interesting to see what's left.

Oil service companies are poised for one of the worst years in drilling activity in decades. Baker Hughes Inc. expects the global rig count to drop to 1,526 in 1999 from 1,844 in 1998, a 17 percent decrease. By the end of the first quarter, Baker Hughes will reduce its employees by 18 percent, or about 6,700 employees, leaving 29,800 employed. Another big oil service company Halliburton Co. is cutting costs aggressively. It has cut about $250 million in annual operating cost base savings, according to a report by Dain Rauscher Wessels. The company has already laid off 2,300 employees, and by the end of the first or second quarter, the total reduction will total 10,850 people, mostly from Halliburton Energy Services. Head count at Smith International has been reduced by 24 percent from the highs of last year. By the end of the quarter, almost 2,200 people will have lost their jobs at Smith. Employment is expected to wind up at 6,900 at the end of the quarter.

World Oil, an oil and gas industry trade publication, presented its Oil Outlook for 1999 this week. The drilling forecast for the U.S. is down 18 percent to 21,125 wells from 1998's figure. Drilling in Texas will be hit hard with a cutback of 23 percent. And the rig count for the US. could be the lowest in recorded history, averaging about 700 units for 1999

19,750 total in this article by baker hughes, halliburton, and smith international. i work for halliburton and we work with smith a lot on jobs.
