Microsoft CIO Stuart Scott Gets Axed

avjt writes "Microsoft has terminated its CIO Stuart Scott for 'violation of company policies'. They won't elaborate. Now what do you think this guy has done?"

    Got caught putting Superglue on Ballmer's chair to keep him from throwing it?

    Got convicted of stealing office supplies for turning off Clippy?

    Got caught actually following an ISO without commoditizing it?

    Got caught following an NDA instead of stealing the ideas for pre-release by Microsoft before their partner?

    We could go on all day on this one.

    He started behaving like a convicted monopolist instead of a monopolist. Having a conscience as an executive is not always a desirable trait.

    I hardly think this is the time for name-calling. The poor guy is unemployed and has seven (that we know about so far) children to support.

    Two words: sexual harassment.

    Scott: Word around the office if you've got a fat cock.
    Mailroom Employee: Yes, I do..
    Scott: I've got a fat cock too. Maybe we should rub our fat cocks together sometime. Maybe a little oil..two fat cocks..together..oil..
