Tax Reform in This Election Year: It's Not Likely
Walmart's New Health Food Push: Is It Too Hard to Swallow?The Wall Street Journal has a great career column today about the brouhaha over Wal-Mart CEO Lee Scott's plan to take off the entire month of May.
The gist of the column is that the guy deserves a break after 27 years on the job and that more CEOs should take the occasional lengthy vacation to refresh and refuel. You can't argue with the benefits of a vacation for renewed vigor on the job.
Still, I can't help but wonder -- even if though the company adamantly denies it -- if there isn't more going on behind the scenes. Columnist Carol Hymowitz notes that Wall Street is currently speculating that maybe the big break is just a preamble to a longer one -- retirement or resignation.
