Win, Win, Win

Disclaimer: To my boss TJ, this is my blog and I can say whatever I want on it.

Today at work we had a company meeting that was classic. We grabbed some chicken from the buffet line, tried to find the "cool" table to sit at, and anxiously waited for the presentation to start.

When the first slides header was "Win, Win, Win" I knew we were in for a treat. Hello, does no one on the executive team watch the office?


Next came the goals. They were good in theory and we like the additional employee benefits, but you are going to have to implement them sooner the 2012. I'm just saying. These goals were called "BHAG" goals. Go ahead, say it out loud...B..HAG. Are they trying to tell me to be a hag? Then they tried to tell us it stood for Big Harry Audacious Goals. Really....does the A stand for audacious or Ass? The goal section ended with a good old fashion "I call bull shit to that" quote from our president to the street.

Next came something about how we are the next Google. Seriously...the next Google? I will not even begin to go into the details of how hilarious this is, but I am going to tell people that I work at Google 2.

The meeting nicely ended with our new company logo. I like that they are changing the logo because the dog has to go, but my (and everyone else) first thought of the new logo was "bada ba ba da, I'm lovin it."

My parting thought to the meeting, "I call bull shit to that."
