You are gona like the way you look, Men's Warehouse zimmer fired from his own company

[2legs2wheels]

not sure if I can still guarantee it though!

Apparently, Men's Wearhouse Inc. doesn't like the way its founder looks anymore.

In terse release issued Wednesday, Men's Wearhouse said it has fired the face of the company and its executive chairman, George Zimmer, who appeared in many of its TV commercials with the slogan "You're going to like the way you look. I guarantee it."

because he disagreed with the direction of the company? how many directions can a men's fine clothing store go? switch to clown suits?

Not only was he the president but also a member...

 

[Johndicezx9]

I don't wear suits, but when I do, they're Dos Equis Large...

 

[mean dad]

Probably cause he killed that kid in Florida.

 

[Asphaultnaut]

huh?

Good one. Took me a minute.

So, if he cashes out his 1.8 million shares @ the current $36.82 per share, $66.3 million to use for hookers and blow.

I don't feel sorry for him.

Zimmer fired from his own company

No more coverin' the asses of the masses for George Zimmer. The company he built canned him.

Whaaaaaaa????????

Carl's Jr. all over again. This is what happens when you take your company public. Everyone's a slave to the Board.

Saw this. Wonder why, the guy was the face of the company, and that slogan was famous.

 

[corndog67]

All the way to the bank.

Don't bother me, I'm eating. At Hardee's.

Seems that way. Only looked at this year, MW's stock price is near yearly highs, so it isn't (recent) under-performance, at least.

The board having to postpone a shareholder meeting, and not having a statement/transition ready, looks bad. It would seem like you want transparency and a smooth, quick transition.

thread merged..

their clothes suck......Very marginal quality. I suppose if you only wear a suit once or twice a year they're fine, but for those of us who work in an office, their stuff just doesn't cut it.

 

[Poxy]

I hate the way this looks.

Could it be that maybe a greying old dude isn't the image the company wants anymore?

Him and those saggy-ball pilots can go start a support group.
