I’m sure there are other companies providing the same type of service without the Sodom and Gomorrah worship requirement.

I would like to cancel our company’s use of Salesforce.com.

The program is total BS that is used by those actually not doing any work. They want feel-good fluff reports to feel like they’re doing something useful.

I know hundreds that use Salesforce.com and most all of them hate it and don’t find it very useful. We log in every day for a minute or so and log out just to say we’ve been there. It’s a waste of time.

To effin’ bad.

Let them go.

It’s long past time to give more than we receive on this.

It’s not exactly as if this silly company is the only one around.

Or the best.

Or even half good.

Let ‘em shove it up their...oh, never mind.

Gee whiz, do you suppose that the company is a non-profit and doesn't realize that they are?
Indiana is sure going to miss “Salesforce.”

The company must be subsidized by the government because, as long as they take stands like this, they promote the GIBLET cause.

YUK!

This is what we need. All the Homosexual pushing companies need to refuse to do business with us. I would very much prefer that they did.

For those that aren’t familiar with this law, it is the EXACT same law (almost word-for-word) that was introduced by then Representative Chuck Schumer and signed by Bill Clinton. It has been on the federal books since 1993. It was a response to a situation in which a Native American was denied unemployment benefits because he was fired for using peyote in a religious ceremony. Now the lefties are screaming that it is some sort of bigoted anti-gay law. Ignorance is so sad, especially when you consider these people are allowed to vote.

One would think that a company dedicated to sales would know better than to break the first rule of sales....don’t piss off your customers!

Never heard of ‘em. I wiki’d them. A 40 billion dollar company. Not that big by global standards.

But this. This was telling:

....although the company has never turned a profit since its inception in 1999.

40 billion dollars and never turned a profit? Sounds like some sort of vehicle if you ask me.

Sure. Here you go:

-Actual text of the bill:

https://iga.in.gov/legislative/2015/bills/senate/101#document-92bab197

-Additional amendment added by the Indiana House and concurred by the Indiana Senate that specifically states that civil liberties can not be infringed upon:

https://iga.in.gov/legislative/2015/bills/senate/101#document-2206cffd

This amendment (passed and concurred) specifically states that protecting civil rights and eliminating discrimination are compelling government interests, thus this bill can not allow discrimination or civil rights infringements.

https://iga.in.gov/legislative/2015/bills/senate/101#document-b58a93e0

-Statement on refusal of health care:

Salesforce is exercising their right to deny their services to people in Indiana because Indianans want the same right.

They don’t have to be profitable. They’re in the cloud.
