Lexmark shipping jobs overseas is nothing new. They have been doing that for years. If they go under, I doubt it will be anytime soon. They will still be here in 5 years to come.

Lemark shipping job Overseas is part of the plan to serve Dell and continue to bend over for Dell.

Lexmark claims they are strong on cash reserve... why ? They replace American workers with low cost labor overseas , the savings go right into cash reserve. The bad part is.... Lexmarks still believe that pleasing stock holders is more importnat than pleasing the customers. Best luck , Mr. CEO and CFO !

Yeah and as far as pleasing stockholders, that hasnt worked well either. I'm a former employee who was suckered into putting to much of my 401k into company stock in the late 90's. I have been gone now almost eight years and it has never came back...even to break even levels..

Daily Horoscope for December 26

Cancer

Mercury turning retro is offering you the chance to make sweeping and long-lasting changes to your life, and to clear the ground for some fertile growth in 2010. Lawyers and legal matters, debates, contract negotiations, partnership or other alliances, and joint ventures of any kind need attention. As a Cancerian you don't like endings, but you must now bring an end to any situation or relationship that is holding you back or has passed its sell-by date. Look forward, not back, if you want a glittering future.
