Stupid Google Employees Shitcanned

I am frantically turning over rocks as part of my due diligence efforts prior to Google’s earnings report Thursday night.  The road can lead you all over the internet, and to some interesting destinations. Need a laugh?

While most Google employees are brilliant, a few are stone cold stupid, allegedly sending in dirt on their employer to a website that chronicles everything that is f*ucked up about Google:

So I just found out today that two people at Google got fired for sending tips to me. Here’s a hint- don’t use Gmail. They’re obviously scanning for outgoing messages to f*ckedgoogle. Just find an anonymous terminal and leave tips in the comment section. Does WiFi at a coffee shop come to mind?  I thought you guys all had phds…

Go to the fucking Apple store and post an anonymous comment here and I’ll put it online. I may hate Google but I don’t want to deal with the emotional baggage of having someone being tossed out on the street.

If you believe what you read, the rank and file are none too enamored of Marissa Mayer:

Marissa Mayer is despised and feared by most people at Google, but people want to be invited to her parties, so they’re not honest to her face.

She is incredibly smart and talented, but is blinded to distraction by her outrageous ambition and need for constant celebrity. It’s amazing that she gets any Google work done for the amount of time she spends cultivating her personal image.

She’s a shameless social climber who only gives the time of day to people who can get her somewhere. A person can go from being a nonentity to her best friend in a matter of moments if Marissa finds out that they are highly placed, or can help get her a higher social standing.

Though she’s an extremely attractive woman, she has no sense of style, and recommendations from publicists and stylists to update her wardrobe, even for one photo shoot or TV appearance, go completely ignored (or not grasped)......Don’t be surprised if you see Marissa leave Google some day and become CEO of her own company on the heels of all the publicity she’s getting for herself.

Sounds like somebody is unhappy with underwater options.

Oprah wisely skirted the controversy in her puff piece on the company:

Of course, if the stock trades back over $500 all will be forgotten. Be sure to check options volatility tomorrow to see what kind of move the Street is pricing in.
