Nobody wears that crap anymore, that's why. Its all about Suit Supply now.

Holy crap these are awful. Dudes in the middle aren't even wearing socks.
This is why I hate hipsters.

 

[Rhomega Beta]

I find it strange that a company can fire the CEO. It's like firing your boss.

 

[commedieu]

damn i was late as hell.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Don't hand over the reigns and then piss off the board.

 

[Plywood]

Couldn't he just make another business and one-up himself?

 

[johnsmith]

At least he has the Dos Equis commercials to fall back on.

 

[krameriffic]

Didn't this happen in a movie or tv show? The founder of a company being fired/demoted by much younger guys..

Yeah. It was Spiderman when they tried to get rid of Norman Osborne from Oscorp.

 

[Alchemy]

This is why you never go public.

 

[Psychotext]

Must suck being fired from the company that you built though.

Could have chosen not to go public.

Those fat, peak lapels are ridiculous.

 

[Culex]

Hmm.

Can someone with more understanding of finance explain this to me? If he is the founder, what would have lead him to only possessing 3.5% of the company?

Did his ownership stake simply become diluted as the company took on more investors in order to expand so drastically or is it possible that he has divested over the years by simply selling off his stock.

Well he's only controls 3.5%, nothing even remotely approaching a controlling share.
If he has simply been selling off stock over the years than he is likely worth much more than that.

CNBC says he is the largest individual shareholder of the company.

 

[Aesius]

Yeah. It was Spiderman when they tried to get rid of Norman Osborne from Oscorp.

Also Vanilla Sky when the Seven Dwarfs want to get rid of David Aames.

 

[Emerson]

As others have said, the idea of being fired from your own company (that you built) strikes me as particularly horrible. I can imagine the anguish is pretty strong.

 

[Freshmaker]

People are actively trying to look like The Sims?

 

[Smellycat]

Firing the founder of a company has to be one of the most despicable things anyone can do in the business world. That is why I will never go public if I start a corporation.

I have never heard of Suit Supply before now, but those suits look 1000x better than anything you'd find in a Men's Wearhouse.
I have only been inside Men's Wearhouse store once, to rent a tux for a wedding, but I checked out their suits and they were garbage.

 

[freenudemacusers]

hah, I was just about to make this thread. Don't know why they canned him, business by all measures seemed to be going well. I wonder if they're going to chase a younger crowd that is getting pulled toward h&m and online places like indochino, suit supply, etc etc.

 

[OfWhiteSkinOnRedLeather]

Not unexpected after he killed that unarmed kid.

lol Man... smh

 

[Seth C]

Do they realize he is their company? Without his face and voice what so they have?

 

[malfcn]

He could literally get a gig doing V/Os for trailers. One of the best gravelly voices in the world.

Oh shit! He's doing Halo now?

 

[See You Next Wednesday]

HAHAHA. Especially the guy 2nd to the left.
Curled up light blue dress pants.

The modern hipster look for people who can't dress themselves.

everything really is hipster.

 

[CarpeDeezNutz]

It seems no one is getting the joke here so I'll just chime in and say 10/10

Oh, we got it.

Man, it's like getting rid of a childhood memory. He was there trying to sell me suits while I waited for my cartoons to come back on.

That's what you get for shooting some ki- oh nvm

Not unexpected after he killed that unarmed kid.

Hahaha! took me a second.

 

[redmetal86]

He's going to turn into the Green Goblin. I guarantee it.

Yeah. It was Spiderman when they tried to get rid of Norman Osborne from Oscorp.

First thing that came to mind. OUT AM I?!

 

[sonicmj1]

Today I learned that it's called Men's Wearhouse, not Men's Warehouse.

Clever.

 

[reggieandTFE]

HAHAHA. Especially the guy 2nd to the left.

1) Do you have any idea what a hipster is?

2) What do you mean they can't dress themselves?

 

[YoungHav]

If you shoot an unarmed black teen your job should fire you. No sympathy.

You're going to like looking for a job. I guarantee it.

LOL!

 

[GoldenEye 007]

It is a pretty shittastic getup, though.

What? That's a preppy look if anything.

lol what? Nobody in their right mind would wear that to work, except some graphic designer or ad person that's trying to be cute. oh right.

 

[Zoe]

I'm going to miss hearing his voice. It's very soothing.

Have you heard his recent commercials? His voice is on its way out.

 

[Tom_Cody]

CNBC says he is the largest individual shareholder of the company.

At 3.5% he still isn't close to holding a controlling share. It is completely within the power of the board to replace him.

 

[TangoAlphaLima]

I just bought some shirts and ties from there this morning. I kept hearing the employees talking about "the founder" but I had no idea they were talking about their company.

Did you think they were Scientologists referring to Xenu?

Edit: Oh, it's right above me.. Wow.

Edit 2: My god, it looks like a bunch of Dwayne Wades walking around. Shit is disgusting.

 

[See You Next Wednesday]

Welcome to 2013 bro.

Thanks for that, I really needed a good laugh right now!

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

With all the colorful socks out there, I will continue to wear socks. Fuck your trends.

Welcome to 2013 bro.

Can I stay in 2012?

 

[chickdigger802]

Don't know much about suits but I bought a set from them for interviews (mom had a giftcard). Don't know if it has anything to do with anything but it net me a $30/hr job out of college... so the suit can't be too shabby.

Welcome to 2013 bro.

That's pretty gross. I hope they enjoy their nasty smelling feet and shoes.

 

[Bombadil]

Do they realize he is their company? Without his face and voice what so they have?

They've retained the rights to his face and voice.

 

[CarpeDeezNutz]

Welcome to 2013 bro.

Socks mahfugga! Do you wear them?!

 

[vagabondarts]

Edit- *Deleted green goblin snark*

Guy in the bottom right is 4 inches from having on Capri pants.

 

[victreeb3l]

[See You Next Wednesday]

D Wade & Russel Westbrook to be Men's Wearhouse's new spokesmen?

This is like firing Ronald McDonald because he doesn't twerk.
