Vante of Tucson, AZ Regrets Actions of Former CFO

Employee Has Left the Company

TUCSON, AZ--(Marketwire - Aug 2, 2012) - The following is a statement from Vante:

Vante regrets the unfortunate events that transpired yesterday in Tucson between our former CFO/Treasurer Adam Smith and an employee at Chick-fil-A. Effective immediately, Mr. Smith is no longer an employee of our company.

The actions of Mr. Smith do not reflect our corporate values in any manner. Vante is an equal opportunity company with a diverse workforce, which holds diverse opinions. We respect the right of our employees and all Americans to hold and express their personal opinions, however, we also expect our company officers to behave in a manner commensurate with their position and in a respectful fashion that conveys these values of civility with others.

We hope that the general population does not hold Mr. Smith's actions against Vante and its employees.

I’ll bet an AZ FReeper knows. I’d also bet locals are giving the young lady plenty of positive feedback.

Even though Mr Smith has been roughed up today, I bet he will get some exposure on CNNBCBS and maybe even a little face time at the ‘Rat convention. He’ll be lauded a hero/martyr for speaking his mind/the truth and then being punished for it by an evil, greedy, corporation. (Never mind he’s one of the 1%ers; I mean, he WAS a 1%er.) He’ll land on his feet, and become uber-emboldened and entrenched in the liberal hateful mindset with the support of his new, more-powerful, Rat friends. Basically, if he wasn’t a radical before, he will be now.

I hope this girl is a Christian and if she’s interviewed she’ll say she forgives the guy.

Yes, and she'll also probably say that she'll pray for his soul.

Guess I’m cynical, but most of the people at the top of companies of any size are butt-kissing jerks. My husband encountered many of them when he worked for a large corporation.

The only way that joker could have ended up fired in say, 1970 would be if somehow a TV news crew had been at the Chick-fil-A and set up for some other purpose and recorded the events AND if it had 'gone national' to the big networks. The odds are that nobody, I mean NOBODY would have ever heard of it.

But you have to remember, he did it to himself 100%. He was the one who brought the camera, he was the one who posted the video on line. Yes, the technology in the 1970s would have been expensive, and there would be nowhere to post it,l but I think if he was a hot head in the 1970s, he still could have found a 1970s way to embarrass himself and get himself fired.

Nah, the left will not care, he’s damaged goods now. He’ll lose everything and end up a burned out drunk begging and living under a bridge.

You’re right, good points Vince.

Adam Smith is truly a fool for all seasons.

Good. That homo was disgusting. Sure, he made it a point to claim he was straight, but no natural man would act like such a queer.

Gee, I missed the part where he asked for forgiveness.

Can you source that please?

Otherwise this silly nonsense of going around forgiving people willy-nilly is not the act of a Christian, it's the act of a lunatic.

“he’s damaged goods now. He’ll lose everything and end up a burned out drunk begging and living under a bridge.”

and when he finally realizes he destroyed his life over a CHRISTIAN CHICKEN SANDWICH, he’ll likely take the cowards way out. SUICIDE...

You can still see the google-cached page at: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:75AJNfWNtekJ:finance.eller.arizona.edu/faculty/asmith.asp+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us&client=firefox-a

He only teaches one course - in the Spring semester:

Adam Smith
Vante, CFO
Master of Business Administration, The University of Arizona, 2005
Current Courses
FIN 513, Valuation Modeling, Spring

Probably next Spring he'll also be teaching an additional course:
"Effective use of Social Media for Career Advancement"

That’ll teach him. With this happening, I wonder if the lawsuit filed in Illinois will now be pulled.

I doubt it. He’s probably going to get an award from their Dept of LBGT and Whatever Studies.

What should he? Remember, he told Rachel there wasn't a gay bone in his body.
