Jerks in Business?

So I was following up on the story I wrote earlier about Sunset Direct sending out the memo ordering its employees not to use the phone or email for personal business. Sunset Direct came out and said it is a hoax.

Which is exactly what I would say about it, even if I HAD sent it.

But if it indeed a fraud, I'll let you know, but as of now, I'm leaving my story as is.

And for the record, Doug Monahan is still a shithead for creating a company that specializes in sending out spam faxes. I hate spam of all colors.

I can't stand all the junk I get through the mail. It's worse than e-mail spam. At least a tree didn't have to die in order for a useless advertisement to reach me via my e-mail address. The corporate world wastes more paper than I care to admit. When printing from a network printer, a useless piece of paper is printed with your name as a seperator from your work and someone else's. I hate to think how many times a day per person this wasted sheet of paper is printed. Some people have complained to IT and requested not to have the seperator page printed as it is a waste. Unfortunately, no one has done anything about it.
