ALL LONGS IN REGUARDS TO PR'S>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
this is my opinion as to what is taking place so take it for what its worth....i have been watching and reading alot of the posters the past couple weeks on RB BOARDS in reguards to pr's that the company has put out and have seen a number of longs here say that management needs to improve on pr's or they don't write them good enough,etc.,etc......i think this is a bunch of B/S AND IT NEEDS TO STOP!!!!!!!! Now before you get mad or disagree with me please read the number of reasons that support my opinion---------------------------------------
I have spoke to a number of people(longs) and from what i have gathered and what i believe is going on is this>>>>>>
1. lets not forget that management reads the RB BOARDS and at all times i believe they have and will lookout for the shr hldrs best interest in the company however when they see the same longs that support the company(pbls)turn around and make comments by putting them down or saying they need to improve on the way they write the pr's or how they word them i believe this puts them on the defensive side and makes them not want to PUT OUT MORE....
2. please don't forget alot of management just went through the biggest diaster in u.s. history and have friends and relatives that have been effected in a terrible way....
3. we all know that they are working around the clock and have alot of high demands to meet along with on new clients to serve.....
4. i believe that management has the ammo right now to release 2-4 pr's a month and start a CAMPAIGN.....lets not forget they just brought a IR FIRM aboard for a reason...
5. they want to move forward as a company and grow to be much larger through aquisitions,revs,mergers,FULLY REPORTABLE,otc,nasdaq,etc.............imo
6. MOST IMPORTANT IS THIS------------we as longs and shr hldrs i believe should support the company with postive feed back through e-mails,phone calls,follow-ups,etc...and if anything give our opinions as to what they can do better if anything BUT I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD BASH THEM OR BE RUDE AS THEY ARE ONLY HUMAN.....and more important if we look after them they will always look after us and our best interest....
P.S...... please put yourself in their shoes why release serveral news annnouncements to have the common long or shr hldr of your company turn around and say....they could of done a better pr or they should of written it better,etc.,etc...which i'm sure they can at any givin point right now for they have alot to talk about do to the fact they are involved in the largest construction boom in history and they are based right in the middle of it....
thany you.....CHAD
