My reply is two fold. 1. to answer your question Larry, loyalty should ALWAYS play a factor in any relationship, but the reality, unfortunately is, it doesn’t. You are a loyal man who runs a loyal company and because of the reality (that people just aren’t as loyal) there are server disappointments, this situation you speak of in your blog is one. It is unfortunate, but I hope you never compromise your style of business and the “integrity” you have and the loyalty you display. 2. I find it pathetic to see former TNG employees on here multiple times (Im referring to you MR, but types “Anonymous” when replying and attacking others). Pathetic that you were NOT the TNG way and were terminated, and now you are on a final written warning at your new place of employement for the same reasons you were terminated at TNG. I believe your time, MR, would be better spent improving herself, focusing on retaining your position at her new distributorship and not targeting Larry, and his employees. Come on MR…grow up and focus on your issues and quit spending so much time here attacking others and being bitter…..

Sounds like the quote about being right came from the book, “A New Earth”

Just want to pass along a few wise words…..

“There is nothing that strengthens the ego more than being right. Being right is identification with a mental position- a perspective, a judgment, a story. For you to be right, of course, you need someone else to be wrong, and so the ego loves to make wrong in order to be right. In other words: you need to make others wrong in order to get a stronger sense of who you are. Not only a person but a situation can be made wrong by complaining and reactivity, which always implies that “this should not be happening.” Being right places you in a position of imagined moral superiority in relation to the person or situation that is being judged and found wanting. It is that sense of superiority the ego craves and through which it enhances itself.”…
“can you differentiate between fact and opinion. Only through awareness are you able to see: There is the situation and here is the anger I feel about it, and then realize there are other ways of approaching the situation, other ways of seeing it and dealing with it. Only through awareness can you see the totality of the situation or person instead of adopting one limited perspective.”

So would you rater be right or at peace?

Seriously, I have to think that the people writing negative comments are either A) employees from the salon or B) disgruntled workers who have just been dreaming of a moment to talk BS. LG didn’t say anything at all unprofessional. He had relationships with these people. He works hard to give the customers more than just a discount. He is striving to give them an experience. So yeah, if he feels upset over what has happened, than by all means he has every right to say something about it. I bet the people who are leaving all these negative comments are the same person LOL. What do you want to bet. Get a life guys, LG isn’t the owner of a company voted most wanted place to work for because he doesn’t know how to take care of people. Get a clue, where are you at?

It seems alot of people are missing the point by taking the blog “personally.”
The CEO is just asking if loyalty still has anything to do with business in
this day and age.
Or is it all about price now? Is that how people in business think now?
He told a story (it really did not sound like he was slamming anyone) and wanted input.
I guess he received input.

LIGHTEN UP people………………………….

wow! Is all I have to say. VERY professional. You show great loyalty and integrity. I think I may take my business to Maly’s too because I’m sure they won’t treat any salon like this, and I don’t want to work with a company where there CEO is as childish as you are.
