I wish they had taken the copies of the M2 with them too. Maybe then the paper would be safe from the evil shredder.

Check the CEOs desk drawer and cabinets. If not him, try your head SysAdmin's desk. Guaranteed!

All I've got in my desk is a bottle of cough syrup from the last sys admin :(

I want a refund.

Every company I've ever worked for has had liquor on the premises. I bet you dollars to donuts most companies do in one form or another.

The company I currently work for has been in business since 1980. The CEO has a fully stocked bar in his office, and there is another refrigerator that gets stocked with beer. We're a highly profitable 35 mil a year company.

The company I founded always had beer around, and the bank I worked for before that had a lot harder stuff than beer. The first company I worked for before the bank went a step farther: beer on tap 24/7.

When you're working 16 hour days, sleeping at the office many nights, and busting your butt, sometimes it is nice to be able to take a break.

Regards,

-Flip


Yeah, I guess you're right... on premesis my company not only has alcohol, but also weed, condoms, a blow up doll, a unicycle, and many of the Jackass DVDs...

... but then again... my company also doesn't have an undisputed horrible customer service department

Heh, see, lots of companies have alcohol on the premises; it's good for employee morale and team bonding (and sometimes bondage, if you're into that kind of thing!).

I remember a day when Linden Lab's customer service department was thought of in very high regard. My guess is now they're going through growing pains, as is the product, trying to adjust to a time when they will have no customer service department. Does the web have a customer service department? No. Do most ISPs? Yes. Linden Lab is currently in a transition from ISP based customer service to browser based (non-existent). The key is giving us the tools we need along the way to take care of things ourselves...because a customer service department for something growing at SL's rate just doesn't scale in reality.

Also consider that, compared to Dell, Gateway, HP, T-Mobile, any public utility, any power company, any bank, credit card or government office... Linden Lab looks like a shining star. Most of the time I call during business hours, and actual PERSON picks up the phone! Do people realize how incredibly rare that is in this day and age? No stupid voice recognition system or anything!

Regards,

-Flip
