Arpey's not the only one...
- Thread starter ULM148
- Start date
Too bad we do not work for Japan airlines! Arpey would do the honorable thing after destroying the greatest airline in history! And devastating thousands of families and causing many many suicides!
He would quietly go away and commit suicide!!!
Well at least he felt the pain of his wife Lisa cheating on him with a pilot from his airline!! Such a humbleing experience!!! Hope she leaves him and rakes his ass over the coals!!!
There is a special reserved place in hell for scumbag executives like him!

Grassley: A.I.G. Must Take Its Medicine (Not Hemlock)
By KATE PHILLIPS
From President Obama to lawmakers to the public, rounds of condemnation have been uttered about bonuses handed out by American International Group, a mega-bailout recipient, to its employees. But none perhaps were as severe as remarks made by Senator Charles Grassley, Republican of Iowa, yesterday (and again today), as he demanded that American corporations adopt some of the ways of societies like the Japanese, whose executives — when shamed — may commit suicide or publicly express deep regret.

I guess it is probably a good thing the Japanese did not win the war.
I wonder what the Germans would do?
Very unprofessional of you to post something like this .
I am just saying.................... that if I devastated 80 thousand employees and thier families lives I would probably be driven to do so! All those millions of dollars that he stole from us and our children can not buy him a clear concious, a loyal companion, good health or a restful night. Karma is and always will be a ####!
What goes around comes around eventually but not always in time for you to see it. But in the end you are judged by the real boss!!! This X CEO and others like him (Lorenzo) will be held accoutable for all the lives the ruined with thier personal greed. Money can not buy your way into heaven!!

If you had devasted 80,000 employees and their families, you would be a 1%-ter and would not have to worry about your conciuos, good health or a restful night.
So if he and those like him will be judged, why are you doing so now?

That was out of bounds,uncalled for. I look at executives much the same as politicians, they are out of touch and not worthy of my respect. We are better than they are. I`d suggest you step back and get some perspective.

I was referring only to severance for resigning -- Carty and Arpey got zero, as did I.
I didn't answer your question about SERP & added years of service partially because I don't think the issues are all that important, but more because I'm not living night & day on the forums like some people do...
Take a step back from the 2003 debacle, and there's a lot more to Carty's epithet than ever gets mentioned (similar to how Nixon is defined by far more than just Watergate, perhaps?...). Carty spent almost all of his career at AMR when he resigned.
If you glorify the Crandall era, you can't do so without recognizing that Don was Crandall's left hand (Baker being the right hand). He was also the finance genius who helped generate alll the wild profits of the 1980's, brokered the deals that got all the MD80's, 767s and A300's for essentially no cash down & with walkaway leases. It was a brilliant move that brought on all the growth of the mid 80's, and positioned AA to be the #1 carrier for as long as they were.
I personally don't care for how he felt he was better than everyone else (having a chauffeur that he paid for, expecting his secretary to get his lunch almost daily, creating special non-rev policies for his trophy wife and child), but the guy did earn his due as CFO.
That's why I'm not so worried about added years of service -- years of service are negotiated as a trade-off for a higher salary when he re-joined AMR from Canadian, and probably also made up for stuff he was leaving behind in his CP compensation package. Nor am I worried about the SERP. It's a nit compared to all the other issues going on.
As for the filth being spewed by furp... crap like that makes me want to volunteer to be the moderator again.

deleted. ignorant question.
Eric,
Certainly there's been a lot of "agree to disagree" with you over the years with a lot of the regulars here on US-A. But for what it's worth, You've always had my Respect. Plus (with all due respect) your married to a real nice Lady. I'll always be glad that I got to make her acquaintence during the 9/11 aftermath.
