Always count on our blog community to do the important math:
Virgin Mobile doubles their Kansas City headcount???
"Virgin Mobile is a wholly owned subsidiary of Sprint. The article states that “Missouri agreed to grant Virgin up to $1.87 million in incentives through its Missouri Works program if the company creates 84 jobs…” At the same time Sprint is laying off hundred in the area. Bottom line: There are fewer jobs in the area and the taxpayers are coughing up $1.87 million to the Sprint subsidiary."
You decide . . .
Virgin Mobile USA moving HQ to KC

Sound like the kind of job I need. As long as I can bring my dog to work, surf the web during work,arrive late and leave early, and the job doesn't interfere with my social life and they offer free food
ReplyDelete"Kansas City is a national hub of entrepreneurial spirit and sophisticated startups"
ReplyDeleteLol right just like Putin and Trump teamed up to rig the election.
Oh, I'm so sorry about your delusion. Who needs to hack anything when you're up against an awful candidate like Hillary? :)
DeleteKCMO needs a new motto. Hype City
ReplyDeleteWeez gonna compete and be vibrant! Dat's what the creatives want!
ReplyDeleteIf Sprint transferred another 84 workers to their Virgin subsidiary, could they get another $2 million for the idiots in Jeff City.
ReplyDeleteVirgin is going to get a lot of trouble from City Hall. Everybody is suppose to say you put your office Downtown because of the streetcar. They better redo the press release for the media immediately.
ReplyDeleteTonyKC – thanks for doing the math. I guess the other media in KC only count on their toes!
ReplyDeleteIf you can't move your HQ to Mexico you might as well settle for second best and come to a shit hole like KC.
