Lets get one thing straight! You will notice that in a comment by "Amper Sand" posted on my Draft/FCB, Christmas Rumble bit yesterday, once again the douchebags running the joint are putting it about that AdScam is written by a disgruntled former employee. Just for the record, I have never worked or freelanced for Draft/FCB. I wouldn't be caught fucking dead working for Draft/FCB. The reason I write bad things about them is because I think they are a bad agency. Not the long suffering troops, but the management, 'cos they're in charge. So they created the Wal-Mart fuck up, the kickbacks to Julie and Sean, the pathetic Lions fucking ad, the awful videos, the embarrassing interviews with Howard, Laurence's private gym, the layoffs... And the fact that the vast majority of the people who work there think you are wankers and can't wait to get out. Did it ever cross your minds that the reason I get so much information is because I have spies throughout your entire organization, particularly New York and Chicago. If you ran such a great place... I'd have fuck all to write about would I? Oh yeah, I forgot... There's always CP+B.

Next week's Draft/FCB staff memo!
Yeah. I left. ON MY OWN. No more: pathetic raises, sub-standard work, benefit erosion, client "wins" that mysteriously produced no work, ignorance of the basic tenets of profit, classless leaders, nep-o-tisers taking positions from people who had fairly paid their dues and pathetic rah-rah meetings that made anyone with a shard of reality comatose. Only the "yes" zombies remain. After a fucking while you just get tired of drinking domestic beer. Their obvious failings and inability to admit so mirrors the fall of any bloated entity you can think of. I wouldn't give them the steam off my piss. Stick to what you know best, annoying bits of paper that came through the mail slot and makes me trip when I come through my foyer, aka gerbil bedding. DMP (Direct Mail to the Pail).

Pull a P&L on Draftworks, I dare you. Oh. Mr. Oates probably already did.

I was secretly enjoying that this painfully bitter post wasn't generating any commentary, after the homophobic bigotry that defined the thread before it. For a second I thought - has George managed to out-freak his own audience?
Guess not! Hi, Maven. Keep on keeping on. Maybe I'll bump into you in the social security line, after they let me go for being overly talented. Like you.

A) I was not let go. I left.
B) We are not homophobic, we are idiophobic. Hence if you are an idiotic gay individual, you are an asshole who happens to be gay.
C) I was raised (naively) that the hardest workers and smartest people rise to the top. Never was told that a clueless man's boyfriend would appoint him head of an entire entity (lose money) and push aside very talented people who had paid their dues AND knew what they are doing.
D) The lack of quality of Draft's work and the inability to generate any new business are all anyone needs to know.
E) I have a full time job, own my own business and a house. So if you don't mind, I'll just wave as I pass the Social Security office.
Seems like Adscam is touching a nerve or two. The moving finger having writ...

I will never let anyone knowingly steal from me or my friends, especially if they look me in the eye and tell me how great everything is. And I walk before they make me run. It is unwise to preside over your own extinction. Lemmings are rodents with a PR firm.

100w33, you don't happen to know anyone by the name "Dale" do you? You have the same "inimitable" style.(An inside joke to Auntie Christ)
