Permalink to this day Friday, April 22, 2005

The party we were at last weekend got written up by The Stranger Party Crasher:
There are paramedics go-go dancing in a makeshift cage decorated with chalk body outlines; bushy-mustachioed '70s-style cops are boogieing to Blur; and a woman whose badge is labeled Lacey (of Cagney & Lacey, apparently) walks around handing out Jell-O shots in little cups labeled with the names of various medications. We ask people what they are dressed as, and they give us various hilarious answers, all based on the theme. A man in a white tank top tells us he's a wife-beater, even though his husband is in the other room.

Seattle PI, HR chief is leaving Microsoft - Reasons for DiPietro's departure undisclosed:
Last year, DiPietro became a focus of attention after Microsoft executives decided to reduce some employee benefits, part of a broader effort to cut costs and improve profit margins. Some employees were openly critical of the moves, which were announced internally in a companywide memo from DiPietro.

In an interview at the time, DiPietro said he felt badly about the reaction from employees and acknowledged that the company "could have done a much better job internally of messaging and communicating the changes and giving a little bit better context."
