My thoughts exactly! The article headline would've read: "Employee Beats Sh*t Out of Boss Ater Waterboarding Attack!"
]]>Wait, did everyone read this article? It sounds like he made it all up, as most of the team is saying that he wasn't held down. Plus, it took him 6 weeks to file the complain, but in the time before that, he went on a trip with that same team, where HE drove the boat that they were water skiing from.
what?
]]>psshhh...everytime quarter when i don't meet my goals i lose a finger. I'm down to two thumbs and a pinkie.
CORPORATE AMERICA, FUCK YEAH!!!
]]>Wow, makes you wonder if George Bush, has stock ownership in this company?
]]>Hey, if their current business fails they can always be contracted by the CIA to do "motivational sessions" in East Europe "board rooms".
]]>@humphrmi: Also, the message I take away from that exercise is "Being motivated is good and you should be motivated," and I hope you guys are a little more subtle than that.
]]>Torture, on the other hand... USA! Kampuchea - err USA! USA!!
]]>Or maybe it just shows that not every idiot can find a job in the Bush White House.
]]>@AD8BC: I'm not sure who our enemy is, but I know damn good & well who is fighting tooth & nail @ Capitol Hill to destroy our Constitutional rights.
]]>@Trai_Dep: Ever since gwb wrote that note to Condi, I been thinking - isn't the phrase "Let Freedom Ring"?
]]>The receipt is unavailable, as after the waterboarding, they refused to pay the invoice for the "motivation." They did, however, sue in small claims court and win.
I'm working on the lead tie-in, but this is getting complicated.
]]>Yeah, like a Bush-appointed CIA director testifying to Congress in public over how much torturing of crazy people the United States of America does is the venue I'd bet money on for being one we should trust for honesty...
]]>Let Freedom Reign! (Imagine my playing "America the Beautiful" on a kazoo here)
]]>I try not to trust my government unless they've given me good reason to do so.
]]>What's really funny about the whole waterboarding fiasco is that the US Government has only waterboarded a total of three people...
]]>Second prize is a set of steak knives. Third prize is waterboarding.
]]>Consumerist.com sued for defamation and libel after publishing inaccurate story confusing online lender Prosper.com, with motivational coaching company in Utah.
Prosper.com seeks $1B in compensatory damages, and $999,999,999,999B in punitive damages, promises to use punitive damages to heal the subprime housing crisis, all the while defeating the terrorists.
Prosper.com released a statement saying "We take this matter VERY seriously."
Did I get them all? I know I missed one somewhere.
]]>I hope at one point it does.
]]>Ummm last I checked [www.prosper.com] isn't about motovating executives it's about p2p lending. Someone here as their domains crossed.
]]>Um, isn't this a different Prosper? Like, Prosper, Inc. the Utah-based motivational coaching company rather than Prosper Marketplace, Inc. the California-based online p2p loan site?
I'll take Basic Journalistic Standards for $100, Alex.
]]>This story is about an incident at Prosper Inc (www.prosperlearning.com/), which is not the same as the peer-to-peer lending site Prosper.com as stated in the headline.
]]>Maybe afterwards he disemboweled the intern and used his frantically scooping up his entrails as an analogy for holding on to customers
]]>That's a team building experience to die for!
]]>Jesus, they didn't even do it right!
You're supposed to put cloth over their head so they don't *really drown*!!
]]>WTF?
]]>Great pun.
