Political preach at the office
Few who work for David Siegel would likely mistake their boss for a man of the people, Bloomberg Businessweek says.
The Florida time-share titan made headlines this month when he sent thousands of employees an email that promised dire consequences should Barack Obama win re-election.
“If any new taxes are levied on me, or my company, as our current President plans,” he wrote to his workers, “I will have no choice but to reduce the size of this company.”
He told Bloomberg: “I wanted to let my employees know what will come if they make the wrong choice. They need to worry if Obama gets re-elected.”
