MS Hires The Salesman Who Won Munich For SUSE

ron_ivi writes "In a move reminiscent of the 1997 MSFT/Borland Lawsuits, Microsoft has hired the SUSE sales guy who won Munich for SUSE. So if you want a job in this tough job market, just be wildly successful at your current job and Microsoft will come recruit you. (Another interesting Microsoft hire is the chair of the ISO C++ standards body as their VisualC++.NET architect.) Personally I think it's great that they recognize talented individuals and reward them well."

  1. I'm a Republican! (A poem) by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Oh, I'm a Republican
    I got a small schling
    I like to bomb niggahs
    and make a lot o' bling

    I got a bunch o' friends
    in high up places
    They helps me get dem
    government graces.

    You think I'm smart
    I just know who's who
    I couldn't run a fruit stand
    without the red white & blue

    I fancy myself
    A brilliant tactician
    But neither me nor m'buddies
    Could even pass basic trainin'

    See, I'm above all that
    A fightin' and shootin'
    I just say "Sic em!"
    Then run the other direction

    Don't need no history
    Don't need no schoolin'
    I got my ideology
    To keep me a shootin'

    If I get caught screwin'
    Or tellin' wicked lies
    "Hypocrisy!" I holler
    And that justifies the crimes

    Liberals! Faggots!
    Commies and queers!
    Socialist hippies
    Full o' pussy tears!

    I'll drop some crap
    about Jesus the Christ
    You'll buy it all
    and vote for me twice

    'Fact, Jesus is comin'!
    Real soon, now!
    So we gotta prop up Israel
    That ol' sacred cow

    Propaganda's m'friend
    But I calls it "fact"
    Even though I don't read
    'Cept for Chick tracts

    Facts? No! Don't need em here!
    We're conservatives! We work on FEAR!
    Don't like what we say?
    Well FUCK YOU, bud!
    We'll shove it down yer throat
    and tell ya it's good!

      I've always enjoyed the last part of this song, the rhyme scheme makes it pretty singable with a good rhythm. Anyway, keep it up :)

    I wonder what your definition of "hire" is when you talk about the Nazi. I don't think that the Nazi's "hired" anyone in my definition of the word "hired."

    Don't tell anyone, but this guy is actually a rogue/spy, and he has a 24d6 sneak attack, which will come in handy just after the meet and greet get's going.
