At Google lax, the exec assistant of Dustin Jackson has herpes and has given it to a mess of people. Well done Nicole!

I worked for a company that had an expensive San Jose lease during the .com bubble. When they decided they needed to get out of that lease, they folded the company - “fired” everyone, then re-hired everyone under an independent second company that was owned by the parent company. Sketchy, but not really surprising…

When they re-hired me, they didn’t have me sign any NDAs. All the old NDAs were with the company that folded, not the parent company. Some days I wish I had been unethical enough to sell off their source code to a competitor.

A lot of property and casualty insurance carriers, think the ones that do your homeowners in auto insurance, are absolutely aware of the devastating effects of climate change and climate catastrophe, but they won't go out of their way to say it out loud.

You can tell this is true by when they start restricting policies in certain states or areas.

Ignoring all common sense approaches to staying competitive by using simple, textbook ideas of strategic management does negatively impact growth.

Imagine that!

Nothing ever actually gets sanitized and we lots of "new products" are actually repackaged returns from other stores.

We would "file it". As in file it under "fuck it it's fine".
