    I get it. You were hired as a PI to chase down another Gawker editor, but he seduced you into switching sides, and now you do all the dirt-digging for teh Gawk. I like it.

    very interesting post content-wise... the editing, on the other hand, is laughable.

    My company just downgraded the office-supplied coffee from Starbucks to Dunkin Donuts.


    So it looks like I timed my move to full-time work-at-home status perfectly!

    I know it sounds gauche, but my lifestyle is so heavily subsidized by my expense account that I honestly don't know what I would do if it were drastically cut. My company is thankfully still doing well, but there have been preemptive cuts (like no more business or first class travel), which I've managed to get around creatively, but any deeper and its going to suck the fun out of working altogether.

    I suggest that someone at Alpha "go Merrill" on the restrooms.


    That should get the point across.

    @resipsaloquacious: By "go Merrill" do you mean the girls should use the boys' room at their whim until Alpha's sales force resembles a scene out of the new documentary about Plato's Retreat?

    @BookishLookish: No, go Merrill means throwing around and stepping in and tracking through the office what an angry monkey might throw around, which actually happened, as reported by Gasparino. But your "go Merrill" sounds like more fun.

    As once worked for a company which, in a cost-saving measure (or pure stupidity), removed every other fluorescent light bulb in the hallway. I don't know how much money was saved, but it gave the building the sickly pall of a porn theater.
