Why Sales Don’t Rise

A day doesn’t go by that one doesn’t read about a company laying off employees. Corporate downsizing, it seems, is the in-thing to do. It doesn’t take a genius with a spreadsheet to figure out that, if we lay off a few hundred people, the quarterly earnings won’t look so bad. Then these guys wonder why sales don’t improve. And inevitably, they put the blame for their problems on somebody else. It’s the Clinton Administration. It’s the Japanese. It’s this. It’s that. It’s no wonder the consumer isn’t consuming these days

He got laid off.
