How many employee no shows?

[SmokeyRone]

I hope they have some way of finding and punishing those employees who took a bunch of free tickets and sat at home.

They deserve to suffer the trials of the damned.

Maybe go round them up, bring them to the stadium, and crucify them, or make them fight animals or eachother at halftime to entertain the crowd that did show up.

Can't force folks man. Its just a job

How many employees are we talking about, and what kind of deal do they get on the tickets?

 

[jruiz]

i mean i understand some people aren't into football but still, i can't believe that a huge percentage of employees with FREE tickets would just not go or give them away

The way the U did the hardsell on this game, claiming 65,000 were already gone weeks ago due to employee day, I would say a LOT

 

[Dingaan1828]

I want to know specifically how many employees got tickets, and what they paid for them.

 

[Consigliere]

452

And, just once, I'd like to get a real answer.

Dont know how many but the tickets are 10 for first ticket and 1 dollar for the additional..... 10 for parking pass and a **** load of cane bucks.....

It's actually one complimentary ticket, and up to 3 other tickets for $1 each. They also come with $10 of "stadium bucks" each that can be used for concessions. Discounted parking too.

OP is a *** who doesn't understand business strategy at all. just likes to whine on the internet about **** he wasnt born with the brains to understand.

employee day is always on some cupcake or semi-cupcake that wouldn't ever sell out normally. we used to make games like LA Tech employee day. so you get a bunch of professors or lab techs or clerical people, who may have never been much into football at all, to come and check out this sport basically free. if they like it, now for the price of a few $25 tickets that wouldn't have been ******* sold anyway, you get someone who might go to 2-3 games a year for the rest of their lives, maybe become diehard fans, pass on the fandom to their kids, etc.

**** i hate internet ******s.

OK, so in 2012 UM had about 13,428 faculty and employees. Does that mean each one gets a free ticket and option to buy 3 more at $1 a piece?

That's a great deal.

Well, this clown comes out of nowhere with personal attacks over a pretty innocuous thread, that was 90% sarcasm and humor.

I have a Doctorate degree, for God's sake! And this pillow biter attacks my business acumen? The nerve of some people! Perhaps he was one of the employees that partook of tickets, yet will not come and support the team? Perhaps.

I am sure those proclaiming righteous indignation over my retort would be shocked, shocked at his comments towards me in his neg. Indubitably!
