Damn is right. But think about all the people Ted fired because he didn’t like them or they weren’t in his “in” crowd. Karma is a bitch.

AP If you could, you would. But you’re being snarky for no reason on Fishbowl, so I’m guessing you can’t. Plus Fishbowl chose that title for me and it’s nowhere else in my life. So we’re both right.

Hello! Looking for some guidance. I will soon be leaving Verizon after 15 years with them (6 years HR experience, 3 years Operations, 6 years leadership). The last HR position I held will be eliminated and I was offered a severance. I am now in the market for a new place of employment I can call home. I was thinking of trying for a start up. But the likes of Google, Adobe, etc. also seem appealing. Would you recommend a start up as my next endeavor? I enjoy helping build processes and policies.
