EMPLOYER SPEAK:what it says/what it means...

[TXBSAFH]

Something to lighten the day

[adam_az]

WOW thanks for the Breaking News...!

[RushCrush]

Reminds me of The Office.

Forget about a TV show. This describes a company I used to work for to a T. EDS. Simply the worst, most mismanaged tech company out there, in my opinion and personal experience.

look at me! I'm "breaking news"!

[Rightly Biased]

Thanks for sompin different

[RebelBanker]

Thanks! Even the toons were depressing today. It got so bad I had to post a story with Moose in the title just to see if I could get some lighter comments. The story itself is kind of mundane, but I like the title:

Thanks for lightening my day... Hmm. Every one of those is correct, sad to say.

I have worked under these conditions, I even occasionally dream about it. Then wake up screaming.

Some even wear Miller-Lite t-shirts! Yes, I've seen it.

WOW thanks for the Breaking News...!

Yeah! I'm sure glad this isn't personal, or an unannounced vanity or anything. ;-)

MUST BE A TEAM PLAYER == able to CYA and lie through your teeth to subordinates and higher management without implicating your peers or immediate supervisor.

[TXBSAFH]

I had this one job where the manager took there herbal subliments (Legal Speed). Try having an ***hole manager on crack for 60 hours aweek.

[TXBSAFH]

So true.

[MotleyGirl70]

Reminds me of Office Space.

SOME OVERTIME REQUIRED Some time each night and some time each weekend.
