    UGH

    Arrest him he is a sodomite

    He was a male flight attendant, of course he was gay.

    Well then, at least he can fall back on his home decorating skills or fashion prowess.

    Yeah, it's still around in the trading industry.

    Some of the old guys still use CTT. Rumors are that the old O'Connor had that as a hiring code.

    so you're saying she possibly quit over a totally misunderstanding of what her boss said and what she thought he said & meant

    hilarious

    No. I'm just surprised he only used an acronym. I'm sure he called her lots of other things.

    Personally, she should've just mentioned to the compliance group that he was spending a lot of time on Scottrade. That would have gotten him a whole new layer of shit to deal with.

    re: the "HPOA" girl quitting
    Adam: yea
    Adam: anyway that flight attendant's old news
    Adam: new person quittin their job in an awesome way is the HOPA/HPOA girl
    me: yeah
    me: saw it
    me: i hear she's a hot piece of ass
    me: i dunno
    me: weird face
    me: also too premeditated
    me: trying too hard, i guess
    me: also women are naturally inferior to men
    Adam: thats true
    me: so pretty much triple whammy
    me: long story short flight attendant guy > hpoa
    Adam: well she came up with "Hot Piece Of Ass"
    Adam: as an acronym for HOPA
    Adam: so she clearly isn't very smart
    Adam: some people are saying that HOPA actually means "horribly overworked personal assistant"
    me: or maybe highly overrated piece of asinine (news)
    me: the news is silent
    Adam: makes sense
    me: i give it a 90% chance of being fake
    me: maybe higher
    Adam: I wouldnt go that high
    Adam: I mean I agree theres a good chance this girl just wanted to show off
    to the internets
    Adam: but 90%?
    Adam: the interwebs have turned you into a skeptic
    me: c'mon now
    me: let me lay this out for you
    me: 1. guy actually quits job in awesome fashion
    me: 2. it gets popular on the internet
    me: 3. suddenly, a story exists about a "hot" girl quitting her job in an "awesome" fashion
    me: only the story comes from "an anonymous source" and is posted to a blog
    me: and there is absolutely no corroborating evidence other than the photos
    Adam: well
    Adam: its not like she quit in any sort of comparable way
    me: let me fill in the intermediate steps
    Adam: she didnt even go in to work
    Adam: assuming this isn't fake
    me: 2a. cretin sees story about guy quitting
    Adam: for the sake of argument
    me: 2b. Aforementioned cretin does a little math (popular internet thing + hot girl + told entirely in pictures = mad pageviews) and hears the sound of cash registers
    me: 2b-i. Cretin's eyes spin around and dollar signs come up
    Adam: dunno where the dollars come in
    respect dollars?
    Adam: but also, it is fake
    me: page views = dollars
    me: social media is big business
    me: digg is routinely gamed by people trying to drive traffic, and thus revenue, to their own sites
    me: the place the story was originally posted has plenty of ads and other web 2.0 horse shit
    me: subscribe, rss, like, share, etc
    Adam: http://mediamemo.allthingsd.com/20100810/meet-the-prankster-brothers-behind-jenny-the-whiteboard-using-farmville-exposing-hpoa-girl/
    me: yeah
    me: see
    me: pretty much exactly as i described
    me: and i hadn't seen that article yet
    me: right down to the cretin-ness of the people involved

    tl;dr I have a magical bullshit detecting sensor

    i'm thinking of quitting my job

    this is without a doubt, in the entire history of bad decisions, one of the worst possible things i could do

    but i'm still more-than-seriously considering it

    i'm pretty miserable

    I quit my job, but my boss pulled a "you can't quit, I'm firing you" on me. However, once I posted on my facebook that I had quit, he started getting phone calls from various MGM people demanding to know what he had done to make me quit.

    Guess you shouldn't treat your best employee like shit.
