A letter from the CEO of my company.

[Alex+R 0]

I think it's sad that Gary's boss was so unfairly maligned for having a positive outlook.

What a bunch of ####### this is...pullin apart his every word..throwin all sorts in the mix. You don't like this guy? Then don't you fkin work for him..

Well his "positive outlook" does include a veiled indictment of alleged liberals and the media.

Let's see "veiled" put in quotes too. He comes out and says he blames the media and then says some pretty disgusting things about them, making it obvious he has no idea how the media does its job and what code of ethics it works with.

That gets a big yawn from me.

'don't lose sight of how good we have it' ....yeah that's a horrible indictment.

if it gets a yawn, pops...perhaps cocoa and a nap will do?

At the end of the day, my point is...OHMYGODHEDISAGREEDWITHLIBERALS!!! Someone shoot the fcuker! NOW!

From the frying pan into the fire.....

I imagine that the CEO grouping all as liberals would be what.... similar to consiering that if someone yawns he's 'aged' and deserving of the affectionate nick 'pops' , eh?

MEMO FROM MY EMPLOYER

Memo to all employees:

In order to assure the highest levels of quality work and productivity from employees, it will be our policy to keep all employees well trained through our program of SPECIAL HIGH INTENSITY TRAINING (S.H.I.T.)

We are trying to give our employees more S.H.I.T. than anyone else. If you feel that you do not receive your share of S.H.I.T., please see your supervisor. You will be immediately placed at the top of the S.H.I.T. list, and our supervisors are especially skilled at seeing you get all the S. H. I. T. you can handle.

Employees who don't take their S. H. I.T. seriously will be placed in DEPARTMENTAL EMPLOYEE EVALUATION PROGRAMS (D.E.E.P.S.H.I.T.). Those who fail to take D.E.E.P. S.HI.T seriously will have to go to EMPLOYEE ATTITUDE TRAININ(E.A.T.S.H.I.T.)

Since our supervisors took S.H.I.T before they were promoted, they don't have to take S.H.I.T anymore, and are all full of S.H.I.T already.

If you are full of S.H.I.T, you may be interested in a job teaching others. We can add your name to our BASIC UNDERSTANDING LEADERSHIP LIST (B.U.L.L.S.H.I.T).

Thank you,

BOSS IN GENERAL, SPECIAL HIGH INTENSITY TRAINING

(B.I.G.S.H.I.T)

P.S. Now send this S.H.I.T to 5 people, who need S.H.I.T in their life, just not the same person who sent you this S.H.I.T They have already had their fill of S.H.I.T

Ah, so that's what that smilie is, eh?

[Fandango 1,440]

OH MY GOD HE OFFENDED THE MEDIA!!!!

I sat and watched the news once where a remote crew were at the scene immediately after a woman was told her son was dead. And the reporter said 'and you can clearly hear the screams of the victim's mother as she cries in agony for her dead child'

don't tell me the media has a code of ethics

A good day at Disney doesn't make news....remember that!

I go to the effort to come up with a sensible, considered response, and you can't even be bothered to reply?

Ah well, I guess reason doesn't compete with a good flame war, does it?

Just as well since I'm going out now anyway

Don't worry Christina, it's probably that they just didn't understand it. Or that you're a woman. Take your pick.

Get over what? I have no problem with "being grateful for what I have", I just find the argument in which he uses a Newsweek poll (which pertains specifically to the performance of government as an indicator of "where the country is heading") to be a little simplistic and unconvincing - IMO (I repeat, in... my... opinion...)

The guy is mixing sentiment with politics - and trotting out the same tired old nationalist-populist rubbish about the evils of the media and "liberals". As I said, I don't have a problem with "being grateful, being proud" and what have you - I just don't find his justification particularly convincing.

BTW, this thread could use a little less of the melodrama that seems to infect so many others. Just a suggestion
