I will not let Julie Roehm fade away in ignominy!!!

As I said earlier from New York, people are coming out of the fucking woodwork begging me not to give up on Julie... 'Cos people just eat that shit up. Well, I do, and it's my fucking blog... And even if it pisses the Tangarine Toad off, I'm going to do the odd one, or six. Anyway my mate Bruce knidly sent me a letter that appeared in response to that arse kissing, boot licking piece of journalistic shit that recently appeared in Business Week. In the interests of Matt Drudge like reportage, hear it is...          “ ‘My Year At Wal-Mart’ was interesting, but highlights Julie Roehm’s shortcomings. Ms. Roehm should have realized that change is evolutionary, not revolutionary. As one Wal-Mart Stores insider reported, ‘when Julie walked into a room it was always about her, nobody else.’ Frankly, her ego got the best of her. Instead of hitting the ground running, she should have taken the time to understand the best way to implement change and build allies within the company. That Roehm has not yet landed another executive position may be indicative of the fact that her time in the spotlight is over. Next time, she should spend more time on techniques that will make her a successful manager.”
Isn't that fucking great... Particularly the last bit. But as I know you're reading this Julie... Don't worry, I'll make sure you stay in the spotlight... So, lets do lunch... Your treat at NoBu!

there might not be that much to say, george...even her star must wane and i'm sure the consulting gig in Plano will keep her hopping. that and the occasional visit to the JC penny factory tour with the fantastic lunch stops at IHOP, and i think she's done.
