Through the electronic grapevine (and it's a fairly well connected
electronic grape vine down here in Lower Sheol) I heard that my friend Kelly was fired for
doing what he was told to do.
Three weeks ago!
Mark,
Lynn, JeffK and I went to Kelly's to console him and to partake in the
ritual Pringles and fudge
stripe cook-ays of the suddenly unemployed.
In discussion it came out that a VP is probably protecting his job and using Kelly as a
sacraficial goat to appease the CEO who is under investigation by the SEC so it might not be a
bad thing that Kelly is no longer there. Oh, but what a tangled
web corporate politics and accounting weave.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
It is assumed that every brand name, slogan, corporate name,
symbol, design element, et cetera mentioned in these pages is a
