  • I'm flaming out on BAC corporate culture

    Sitting through a 2+ hr "trends" presentation. They spent 30 minutes on one they call: Mountain high, river deep". If I had a straight razor I would have slit my wrists

    I got an email from HR advertising a training for giving presentations, which said something like:

    Which is more important in a presentation? Gravitas or content?

    Of course the answer is gravitas. I thought they were talking about lox.

      We have a consultant from my beloved Penn State giving seminars on crafting presentations with no bullet points. I never took the course but recently did a presentation where I took that advice ad absurdum. My boss was not amused

        "Mountain high, river deep"

        WTF does that even mean?
        Sounds like directions the locals gave to Lewis & Clark

            We had this thing at my last BAC called "Operation Next Paradigm." More like Operation Shoot Me in the Face. It always made me think of "Crossing the Rubicon" for some reason though, so at least it was good for a chuckle.

                  It's a song? They didn't even make it up?

                    ...they should've described BAC weenies using Marvin Gaye. "Nothing Like the Real Thing."

                      Actually they reversed it ... the song is River Deep Mountain High, but I guess they didn't want to have to pay a royalty.

                        Wrong, she says "Face down, ass up, that's the way she likes to fuck".




                        Did you miss the word "flaming" in the title? U getting soft DQ, getting soft.
                        500 internet fights, that's the number I figured when I first joined igglephans. 500 internet fights and you could consider yourself a legitimate internet-tough guy. You need them for experience, to develop leather skin. So I got started. Of course along the way you stop thinking about being tough and all that. It stops being the point. You get past the silliness of it all. But then...after...you realize that's what you are.
