Team Building Gone Bad?

We're gonna start calling Co-worker Adam "The Link Man" because of all the great articles he sends my way. More importantly, when they are sent to me, they usually include a comment along the lines of "If this isn't blogworthy, then I don't know what is". Let's be serious, most of these articles are indeed blogworthy because there are a lot of people in the world who do a lot of stupid things that make it into the news. Secondly, I'll blog about pretty much anything: bloggers can't be picky. Especially myself.

Anycase, this lady is suing because she was spanked at work during a team-building activity. My favorite comments from this article is where it mentions that the employees were "paddled with rival companies' yard signs" and the "winner poked fun at the losers, throwing pies at them, feeding them baby food, making them wear diapers, and swatting their buttocks". This is plain ridiculous.

It doesn't seem like the lawyers have much of a shot of defending the company: "Lawyers for Alarm One, an Anaheim-based, 300-employee company, said the spankings were part of a voluntary program to build camaraderie and were not discriminatory because they were given to both male and female workers." Um, guys, that doesn't really make your point any more valid.

-Oh yeah, Britney Spears is pregnant again. In other news, I'm trying desperately not to become the blogging equivalent to a tabloid, but our favorite celebs to make fun of just keep getting knocked up. It's completely out of my control.

- This might be the best haircut ever.

- So the boys (Brandon, Eric, and Jonny Belman) and I are heading down to Atlantic City this weekend. It's been about 2 and a half months since the David Longo encounter, along with getting snowed in over the whole weekend. I don't see any snow in the forecast which is good news, and who knows -- maybe we'll run into David again. Should be an awesome time... some boozin, gambling, and maybe some hookers on the side. Great times all around. (Kidding about the hookers -- come on now) Look forward to some stories after I get from the weekend.

Hey, have a good weekend now.
