OH!, they succeed al'right... They succeed at pissing me off!!! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know how this happen, but it seems like corp America has been scraping the bottom of the bucket for anyone with half an IQ, willing to sit in a cubical all day, creating an appearance that work is actually being done...
