Nothing. As far as I know he's still there. That company was a raging dumpster fire.

Ah Manage Engine. Lots of full featured products that are roughly 75% complete.

The kind of place where "backups" means playing Russian Roulette with one set of old ass tapes, if you're lucky.

Guy in my department strolls into my office and says, "Welp, this is probably my last day working here." I asked him why he would say that. He sits down and shoves his phone across the desk toward me. I start reading and it's an email from him to the CEO complaining that our boss is, in so many words, a complete fucking moron.

I finished reading and was just like, "Yeah, you shouldn't have done that." I mean, he wasn't wrong. I agreed with basically everything in his email. He was also right about it being his last day working there because he was fired that afternoon.

If you're not spending half your day testing vacuum tubes one at a time, are you even a real engineer?

I know I've got a punch card sorter around here somewhere.

"And on the third day, there was a wedding in Cana. Jesus' mother was there. When the wine was drunk, Jesus' mother said to him, 'We're out of wine.' 'Bruh... That's a big yikes. But why do I care?', replied Jesus.

Jesus mother instructed the servants, 'you just do whatever he tells you no matter how stupid it sounds.' Jesus sighed and turned to the servants saying, ' Okay. You see those jars? Nope. Not that one. The big ones. Yeah. Those big ones over there. Go fill them up with water. All the way up. Then take some of the water and give it to the host."

The servants were more than a little skeptical but shrugged and did as they were told. When the host of the wedding feast tasted the water, it had become wine. And the host exclaimed, "Damn! That is some good shit. Where did you get that from?" And the servants were amazed because they knew from where the wine came.

And the servants implored Jesus, 'Do it again! No, wait. Can you make something stronger this time?"

I'm an American but I remember talking to a gentleman from Belgium years ago while visiting Muir Woods. He said something along the lines of, "You all have some of the best national parks in the world. You should be very proud of them."

That conversation gave me a new appreciation for our national parks. We are fortunate to have some pretty amazing scenery in the US.

I assume that officer is none other than Lieutenant Frank Drebin from Police Squad.

Private equity spent most of the 90's destroying Montgomery Ward and Eddie Lampert held Sears/KMart under the water until the bubbles stopped so he could cry to anyone that would listen that the retail business was failing while he made a fortune selling off the company's real estate.

Weeee weeooooo weeeoooo eeeee wahhh tick tick tick tick
