Troy Oldham's Week 9 Post #2

A few days ago the CEO’s of Ford, GM, and Chrysler flew into Washington DC to ask for a $25 billion bail out. The amazing part is—all three flew in on private jets! They went to plead their case that they are running out of money yet still use these jets worth millions and millions of dollars! They definitely could have used a PR advisor telling them it would look a lot better for their case if they flew in coach, or at the very least, first class! You’d think companies would learn that lesson after AIG big wigs got such a bad reputation by going on an extravagant “company retreat” just after receiving a huge bail out from the government.
