Well, that's a shame.

Aside from being a noted pro-marijuana activist, Zimmer has been known for treating his employees well -- good pay, benefits, promoting from within, etc.

 

And no criminal background checks. Big believer in second chances.

 

probably one of the reasons the BoD wanted him out.

 

Of course, the copy editor in me has to ask: is the company that owns the stores spelled "Men's WAREHOUSE" even though the stores themselves are "Men's WEARHOUSE"? If true, that instance wouldn't be the first time: See "Wal-Mart Inc." and "Walmart."

 

Don't worry, Zimmer.
You can always file a SUIT.



PLEASE TIP YOUR SERVERS.

 

He looks like the type who'd appreciate a good hit. Good for him.

 

I always thought he looked smarmy...and would rather take a bump over a hit.

 

Lives across the street from my grandma's house. Never met him though.

 

No. It's spelled wrong in the url of that link, which leads me to believe the first headline on the NPR site perhaps had it wrong, and then someone fixed it -- but the 'warehouse' in the url remains.
