Its so "Office Space"!

Its the holiday weekend so not much to report this week, actually kind of been a bit boring. Was talking to a guy at the beer bash a sort of Berkely-kind-of-dude-whos-done-it-all type. He was pretty cool for being old and bald. Anyway, he was telling me this story. Apparently this is all true but have no way of verifying one way or another.

The story goes like this. There was this total dick in Sales, Business Development or something. You know the type, Oakley's and a suit each day. So he totally makes a mess of a contract with some supplier. Henry gets really pissed and storms out of the meeting. Apparently the guy is shitting himself. Its Friday so he goes home. Comes back the on the Monday and Henry says nothing, does not even look him in the eye. So the guy thinks "Ok, I'm in the shit but I have a job".

This goes on for a few weeks. A few weeks turns into a few months. A few months turn into a year and a half.

But as the Berkley guy told me, and he swears he was told by a VP, Henry actually sacked him on the spot. He just carried on turning up each day for another 18 months before he finally quit for another job. Fucking idiot! Didn't he see that he was not getting paid?

This place is so Office Space its not funny. Talk about life imitating art.
