Saw that happen a few times, which is why I dropped GE as a vendor.
Also saw they try to royally screw me so they were #4 in sales.
You know I didn’t even address that relationship. Jack even changed relationships between vendors. A big company like GE or Walmart used six sigma to bludgeon vendors. Truly Destructive. In your case they were the vendor you were the client. I can’t imagine having to interface with them. Look at CAT, Cummins or Home Depot you pick. Disaster.
