Enter the infamous Mr. Nardelli to Chrysler Corporation. You see, Bobby has never gotten over getting passed over for the much smarter and younger Mr. Immelt (even though Jack never knew Jeffrey would be so liberal in his ways). He left GE in a huff and took out all of his aggressions on Home Depot. After the board at HD finally figured out Bobby hadn’t a clue and Jack was right, Bobby weaseled his way into Chrysler declaring GE and HD were all wrong about him.
Once aboard at Chrysler, he steals Toyota’s hatchet man, Mr. Jim Press. Now how do you think Mr. Press has figured out how to make the Toyota engine run so well? With threats and manipulations of course! After all, dealerships are nothing but a bunch of wussy malcontents and once you threaten them within an inch of their lives, they back off and sink themselves even further in debt.
A group of Chrylser (Jeep and Dodge) dealerships experienced Mr. Press’ wrath on a conference call in the spring when he shared openly that he knew the 30% who were holding out and where their kids went to school and where the dealership owners lived. Yes, that’s right. Mr. Press said those very words when 30% of the dealerships refused to sign for millions of dollars worth of inventory because they had lost faith in Chrysler, Chrysler financing and the economy. Yet, Mr. Press is making money hand over fist, selling 15 million dollar condos in NYC and living the life of Reilly.
Don’t be fooled folks. The elite have their ways and many of them cannot be discussed in the open. Mr. Press was picked up by Fiat in a heartbeat due to his ability to threaten, coerce and otherwise bring in sales of inventory, force dealerships out of business (losing their livelihood set up by generations of hard work and labor) and make others buy those franchises thus sinking them into debt they will never see relief from in their lifetimes.
Recently, Mr. Press actually sent out a letter asking for the dealerships who weren’t forcefully closed to team up against those who were to throw them under the bus! Shame on you Mr. Press. The law should do a full court press on you and put you on the street or better yet in prison for destroying so many lives under the guise of “it’s just business”.
I have one question for you Mr. Press. Have you ever in your life had to lie awake at night not knowing where your next dollar or sale will come from because you were a legitimate business man living with the ups and downs of having to bear the long term responsibility for your actions? NO! You haven’t the intestinal fortitude to bear the consequences of your actions. You’d rather take a huge salary and live like a playboy at the expense of hard working small business owners who pay your salary while you threaten them and their children. Where I come from, that’s referred to as La Cosa Nostra or mafioso. It’s not legitimate business and you, Mr. Press are a disgrace to this land, this marketplace and this nation.
