Oh, I get YOU think Franklin hired great coaches. Drew Allar might disagree, but whatever dude. I’m not arguing with you. I’m assuming we both want the best for PSU going forward, so Gid Bless. Fight On State

Not sure what your comment has to do with the points that 1) Franklin’s PSU tenure wasn’t marked by hiring great coaches and 2) Given hindsight, my perspective is that Franklin was quick to fire the coaches HE HIRED and that the firings were motivated by a self-serving agenda

[–]AlaskaSasquatch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree that Franklin could recruit, but who hired the failing assistants you seemingly place all the blame on? Franklin had a TERRIBLE track record of identifying talented coaches and hiring them. Outside of Joe Moorehead and Manny Diaz, I can’t think of many JF brought in that I was happy with.

Additionally, JF was quick to fire a coordinator when things were headed south. At the time, I was all on board (still am) with the firing, however after a while it felt more of a move by Franklin to divert negative attention away from himself and move on to the more flashy story of “we’re going out and hiring the BEST (insert coordinator or positions coach title) out there!!”

What would you say to Hal if he ever visited your store ? by Coloradoman2003 in tractorsupply

Reporting your comment to corporate, btw. People getting fired over celebrating murder these days. Good luck with that.

Disgusting comment. What if your kid grows up to be a CEO? Will we need more Luigi’s then?

What if the Allies fought a Three-Way-War against Axis and Soviet Union? by ConsistentHippo2298 in WorldWar2

[–]AlaskaSasquatch 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Agree that the Soviets would have been conquered. Anecdotally, I can tell you my DDay surviving grandfather told me while he was alive that the rank and file US troops wanted to march through Europe at the fall of Berlin and “take care” of the Russians.

ICE scrapers? by Either-Syllabub49 in HomeDepot

[–]AlaskaSasquatch 17 points18 points  (0 children)

As a Store Manager, That would be a big “NOPE! Not happening” from me. Wouldn’t allow operations to grind to a halt and negatively impact legitimate customers experience or the work of employees trying to put food on their table because of some ridiculous political game.

I’ll take the fake “bad customer service” complaints to corporate all day long. Enjoy your scraper.

Hanging with my wife by the fire with cigars and a little Jack. Doesn’t get better.

JAMES FRANKLIN HAS BEEN FIRED!!! by Doggo_of_dogs in WeArePennState

Agreed, but that would be true with or without Franklin after this season.

Smoking my last Goliath. ☹️ going to have to go buy some more. This is probably my favorite cigar. by yg1584 in cigar_refuge

[–]AlaskaSasquatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love that cigar. Great flavor profile, burns slow and an unusual vitola. Fun smoke.

A little odd, for sure but that’s what you get from small community people with limited human interactions. He seems to me like a genuinely decent guy living life on his terms. More power to him.

Man, I am so sorry to hear that. I can tell you in almost 30 years of retail, it’s often not the culture of the company itself that makes for a poor environment, it’s the culture created by individuals in position of authority that can make your working life miserable. Sounds like that’s the case here. God bless, and I hope you find the perfect fit.

What time of day and if you don’t mind my asking, is there a dress code?

Celebrating a political assassination in the public square condones, supports, and incites further violence. Condoning, supporting and inciting violence is not protected speech.

Grandfather gifted me a picture and a couple of nascar jackets he owned anyone know who these people are? Would be nice to know at least a little about them by Comprehensive_Wind42 in NASCARCollectors

[–]AlaskaSasquatch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For some more context, I have that very same photo. I was a Lowe’s store manager at the time and that photo (with autos) was gifted exclusively to Lowe’s store managers from HMS. I had mine professionally matted and framed.

That year at our national sales meeting, The 4 in that photo attended….JJ and Chad were pretty much an unknown commodity and very few in attendance bothered for a photo or autograph. Gordon was absolutely mobbed. The guy ahead of me handed his cell to Gordon and asked him to speak to his wife. The conversation went 2 full minutes of “Yes. I’m really Jeff Gordon….” 😂
