HughJanus ,

Unfortunately nothing will come of this. What Louis doesn’t understand is that dealerships are franchises. That guy is not a John Deere employee. If enough people make a stink, at best, they’ll fire that guy and both John Deere and the dealer will say that he doesn’t represent their views.

PeleSpirit ,

It’s still good that he’s getting the info out there, imo.

HughJanus ,

True, but he also seems to think this will most certainly end in an anti-trust violation.

Except you don’t understand that the franchisee and their employees directly represent the brand and can both tarnish and directly help implicate corporate through those actions. Their first move is to try to say it’s an independent owner but they granted access to their brand to that individual so their are still on the hook for their actions when using said brand.

This company obviously gives zero fucks about their brand.

No they’re not.

I really suggest you back that up with sources because even JollyBee in the Philippines knows how bad of a fuck up a random employee can be to the entire brand, especially when going into a international market.

Just Google jollybee fried towel and tell me that didn’t absolutely fuck the brand up.

…what kind of sources? The source is John Deere repeatedly fucking over their own consumers.

That's for a judge and/or jury to decide and it doesn't work quite so easily since in america corporate crime is rarely if ever punished.
