so all the transit workers union wanted was for someone to make fun of them? could have avoided that strike with a fake moustache on the union president i guess. seriously, it shouldn't take a premeditated management decision to create a relaxed atmosphere. perhaps the employees would like adaquate pay and reasonable pension and health. maybe a little respect too. btw, i'm assuming "fun" makes all employees happier, not just IT. i guess it's cheaper to create a funny ofoto album than to increase wages or not decrease benefits.
so you are substituting "holier than thou" with "smarter than thou"? a pushy atheist is no better than a bible-thumper. arrogance is rarely a sign of or a product of intelligence.
i use the computer a lot because i use it for a lot of things (movies, music, info, work, etc). just because you use something frequently doesn't mean your addicted. otherwise, you could say i have a serious toilet paper addiction. i can't exactly imagine someone getting the shakes or some other withdrawal issues from not using a computer.
damn, i got all excited reading the headline. i thought my fav stripclub was going to reopen. oh well. btw, no need to mark your calender, you will be reminded here in a couple days.
if you accept, it installs the software. if you decline, it installs the software and some tracking and monitoring software because you clearly have something to hide. w sez so.
i fail to see how this is relevant, unless you honestly believe a company can be inherently good or evil. the only goal a company has is to make money. how they do it will change according to who's at the helm and how they decide to run things and which direction they want to go. it's not like a company is a living being who's instincts are programmed into their dna through evolution. i guess there are mods who see otherwise though.
you are absolutely right. it doesn't mean u have to play dirty. however, if your competitors are, it makes it hard to stay clean if you want to remain in business.
your post got me thinking. i wonder if one-hit wonders are more profitable for the recording industry. if i manage to create a hit with some luck but don't have enough talent to be a full product, i wouldn't have much bargaining power. my hit would pretty much be a lottery ticket and i'll take what i can get. it's not like i can even say i'll go on tour with my one song. meanwhile an egotistical artist who makes a lot of good music and sells out stadiums is not as easy to rake over the coals. donno, just thinking out loud.
they probably can't fathom anyone boycotting them because they don't see anything wrong in what they are doing. they probably also figure if you are not buying, you must be downloading the music, so they consider it pirating instead of boycotting. they can't fathom that anyone would find fault with them or not want to listen to their music. alienating your customers and putting out cookie-cutter music might lead to drop in sales? does not compute!?!
you could also sit on your hand til it goes numb and then jerk off so it feels like someone else is doing it. damn, forgot where i heard that one. sorry, can't verify if it works though.
MTV has a lot of sway with the younger market, they aren't going after us. and they r quite good at marketing to their target demographic. i know there is a serious lack of details, but i also know that two wrongs make a right..

I remember a case back in the late 90's where I got a small check.

i don't know if nipples are the right analogy. i see men's nipples bare on tv all the time. i can't remember seeing any cameltoes though..
really? so that's where he got all those black turtlenecks.
or the stuff does work and gets bought by someone who doesn't want everyone to know they bought it or have it.
how about find a way implement these on toll roads? then you could sell the power generated to collect money instead of time-wasting toll booths.
