N_D_Radioguy: "Retribution?" For what? I made choices to advance my career, including leaving before I took a bullet on Shadeland. I avoided the carnage that came shortly after, and well before Cumulus purchased this operation.
I said in my posting that I wish the man no ill will, that no one should have to go through this. Charlie is a very likeable guy. Charlie, like most managers, has had to make a lot of hard choices along the way, including letting many people go. Most of his fans on this site think he is such a good guy that he could do no wrong. "Geeze People," he doesn't walk on water, leap tall buildings in a single bound, save stray cats, and have a plan for world peace. He's a likeable guy. A good programmer. A great face in the public.
The only thing personal I have, N-D-Radioguy, is an opinion that more good people than anyone here seems to want to admit had their worlds turned upside down. You were either part of the fraternity, or you weren't. So be it; that was the management philosophy. And now, he doesn't "fit" at Cumulus, and his firing is probably just as wrong. I think a person can learn from this; I think it can make you a better manager, make you appreciate the full impact on someone's life you have every day, as well as when you're thinking about pulling the trigger on letting someone go. That trigger was pulled a little too easy and often on Shadeland.
Radioho, shut up. A board like this gives everyone the right to their opinion, and that's fine. You, however, seem to have this bad habit of calling people out and slamming on them personally when you don't know a thing about them. Stop making it personal; you look stupid. Everyone has a right to an opinion on a subject as much as you on this board, but I don't stoop to namecalling. Pleeze.
