back when i worked for apple there was a manager that kept showing us lolcats (this was before ragefaces were a thing)

everyone else was laughing hysterically and i was just sitting there thinking "oh god this is so loving stupid and embarrassing for everyone involved". after a little while he realized i wasnt laughing at his stupid memes and did everything he could to make life poo poo for me while i worked there

and that manager's name was steve jobs

wearing suitable clothing to work is something that adults do. laughing at lolcats is something that middle schoolers do

slack
hip chat
flowdock

which one??

slack looks p cool, looks like it's hosted remotely though
flowdock's hosted remotely, we're trying to minimize that
hip chat is immediately disqualified for rage faces

we're not supposed to be using US services cause of NSA, but everyone wants to use skype and google docs.

Raskin had one problem: Jobs regarded him as an insufferable theorist or, to use Jobs's own more precise terminology, "a shithead who sucks".
if cats had acquired the ability to express themselves in words you would have thought they could do it with decent grammar and spelling it really isn't that much of a leap

why do some folk think putting their loving vacation/trip photos in their presentations and making comments regarding the local culture is appropriate behavior?

bitch we are an adult company doing adult business, gently caress off. the first time i witnessed this i almost died from second hand embarrassment.

i've seen this only from american it companies btw, is this a thing in the us? do you guys have to deal with these chucklefucks all the time?

(no we didn't do business with any of these morons. last time someone did this the deal went to LG, loving Lucky Goldstar.)
