How to demotivate your team and lose their respect...
It’s a cultural norm at the company my friend works at, that new employees are treated to lunch on their first day by the team.
Today, her boss notified her that because of the snow storm, she, her boss, and the new employee were the only folks who were in the office. You would think this would get her a few props— but no, not at this company.
She was then told that the lunch was...

Go Daddy CEO Brings Down Elephant
The villages crops were being destroyed; they did not appear to weapons of their own; Elephants are over populated in the area; the meat was a windfall for the locals.
Did Bob Parsons really do wrong?

Cinnamon Spice Coffee and Fall: A Classic Combo
Instant coffee is back better that ever with VIA
By Mark Nassal
Starbucks recently came out with a new coffee product called VIA. VIA is an instant coffee reformulated for the twenty-first century. The initial rollout included a medium and dark roast. Both are great! I carry a couple packages of each in my backpack and computer bag for when I’m out of the house. It’s also a great...

I Wear My Heart On My Chest; Literally
Luemond quite literally wears his little golden heart on his chest. How can you not trust a guy that vulnerable? He now watches over the sfp101.com office from high above, seated next to Jason Varitek bobble head.
He was a birthday gift from my daughter today who does soft sculptures in her free time. You can find more of her and her creative friends artwork at Etsy.com

Upgrade to Ubuntu 10.04: Smooth and Sexy
With fingers crossed I upgraded my Asus Laptop to Ubuntu 10.04 yesterday. The previous upgrade to 9.10 required quite a bit of fixing and finessing after the upgrade. So, as you can imagine I was a little tentative about this upgrade. Thankfully, the process was painless and went off without a hitch.
The UI update is a welcome improvement as well as many bug fixes. If you have an hour or two to...
