I'm impressed with their reply. This is gonna hurt them once the word gets out on a larger scale. The middle finger comment just doesn't go down too well.
Yes, but who would ever say something like that in the first place?
Perhaps she will be the next Carly Fiorina. Let's see if her first act is to lay people off while buying herself a new jet.
Sometimes, when you are a CEO, you only get to make a mistake once.
Oh, I almost forgot. A lot of restaurants use Pepsi products - can only order Pepsi, not Coke. Applebees is one example. I plan to write Applebees and tell them they should cease using Pepsi and give them this reason. Just thought I'd let ya know.
Well, as long as she "loves" America than it is okay for her to bash it. </liberal mindset>
Good point...there are a lot of businesses that have similar policies.
Dammit,now I can't drink pepsi or coke.
Lucent and HP... she did a hell of a job with those two companies.
On the other hand, one would have to coerce me very strongly to be so quick to overlook a remark that degraded America.
People who say such things have no business benefitting -- look what America has done for her from the sacrifices of those who love this great land.
Screw her.
Why? Good grammar, nice punctuation and spelling? It is a non apology apology.
You letter was excellent. I don't believe Pepsico did themselves much good reporting her nonapology apology.
She did not take back a thing she said did she? I have to agree with you. One would not think the business prospects of a firm that makes a loony-leftist as their CEO would be very good. Maybe it is time to sell them short?
It is the finger she supports our troops and CIC with. I give the same support to ayatohla cola, and its subhumansidiaries!
I've seen corporate apologies before and this one appears sincere. I think they're nervous. They didn't defend her. They only referred to her apology. I can't believe they promoted that moonbat!
Yuh, right, unintentional. Here's middle finger to you Indra. Switching to Coke.
I have my own feelings about the response, but I decided to post the response without my comments or sentiments. I made this post because other Freepers requested that I post any response I might receive from Pepsico.
Hey, world
"Had to destroy it to save it..." < / liberal agitator >
no, it's not. but when someone calls you that, well, you gots to wonder what they mean.
