That's a good point. The article sure convinced me, since I only read it once, that everybody now makes $70k.

Mr. S, I still wonder what you'll do with a mail guy who's making $70K per year, who has a crappy attitude because people who think they're worth more treat him like crap, yet he won't quit the job because he can't get anywhere near this amount of money for a similar position. I say again, everything he does will poison the atmosphere at that place. And there will be plenty such people.

We're not living in a cynical world. We're living in a world with real people who have real incentives to earn more by working hard, learning, advancing... why would the mail room guy have any reason now to better himself? Be real!

Oh, Bruce, how I hope you will still be ready to comment on this company in a year or two when the backfire has blackened the faces of everyone in the company.

How is it even possible that this particular artwork exists? It's not exactly a blackened face after dynamite goes off, but it sure as hell applies! Cracks me up!
