Numbers tell the big story

I decided to do some research and post some numbers as to where everything stands in the Stock and It is posted on the Walgreens Yahoo Finance Board

These numbers are at where they closed on that day.

Centennial Wireless (A Regional Cell Phone Company)
Date of Hire (3/28/06): 7.17 a Share
As of June 6: 8.70 a Share
Change: +1.53 or 17% increase since starting to work for the company

WALGREENS: Former Employer
Date of Dismissal for telling the truth (12/20/05): 45.30 a Share
As of June 6: 36.03 a Share Change: -9.27 or 20% decrease since being dismissed from Walgreens

Now, what about the competition, where were their stocks during this three points in time Walmart:
12/20/05 : 48.60
03/28/06: 47.75
6/6/08: 58.37
Change: 9.77 or 17% increase since being fired, 10.62 or 18% increase since being hired

Target:
12/20/05: 54.03
3/28/06: 53.25
06/06/08: 54.63
Change: .60 or 1% Increase since being fired, 1.38 or 3% increase since being hired

CVS:
12/20/05: 27.72
3/28/06: 29.68
06/06/08: 42.64
Change: 14.92 or 35% increase since being fired, 12.96 or 30% increase since being hired

Since March 2006, CVS, Wal-Mart and Centennial Wireless ALL HAD DOUBLE DIGIT INCREASE in the price of their shares

Target has held steady

WALGREENS had DOUBLE DIGIT DECREASE IN THE PRICE SINCE FIRING ME!

I am wondering given what has occured

- $55 Million shelled out to settle two FEDERAL LAWSUITS
- Bad Customer Service FROM RIPOFFREPORT.COM and Planetfeedback.com
- Protect $100,000 Worth of cosmetics rather than help out a customer in photo
- Promote Bad Employees who use Racial Slurs and Foul Language
- Fire Great Employees
- Try to take a small town to court just to build there Stratfield Village Association in Fairfield, CT
- Support of the Gay Games

Now add on top of that

- Walgreens Supporters labeling me as a crybaby for telling everyone the real deal about the company (I am not a crybaby)
- Saying that I am now work for a 2nd-rate company (Would a 2nd rate company be expanding their call center in the UNITED STATES and customers are prefering Centennial over say Verizon, Sprint or AT&T)
- That I was not a team player (Eventhough I lead a team of people winning a department contest and now train people on the process within the department)
- That my job is "low-life scum" (Although many customers would disagree with that, saying that we help out customers)
- Walgreens Supporters labeling those that post FACTS as being insane (Or that Yank is Danbert or that I am Yank or Jim Newbauer does not exist, which are all false)

GIVEN ALL OF THAT ... Do you think that for 1 second that the Joe Q. Public believes the Walgreens Supporters OR the one that present facts and experiences ABOUT WALGREENS?

If I am Joe Q. Public, I am going with those that present Numbers and Experiences
