Now IBM is joining in the “Comedy” training video gig… Three video’s for the Mainframe division of IBM are actually not too bad. Check them out here. Nowhere near as funny as the Microsoft stuff with Ricky Gervaise, but definitely worth looking at. Particularly if you’ve ever done as much work as I have with IBM through O&M. These guys have zero sense of fucking humor and every second employee is a lawyer who's main function in life is beat the shit out of everything you do. The videos are well acted and with some funny dialogue if you know anything about the IT business. But what I want to know is why does "Bob Howie, Global Mainframe Sales Director" have a bottle of Glenmorangie Scotch on the credenza behind his desk? From what I remember of IBM, they’d cut your nuts off if they found a bottle of beer in your office!
See what I mean about lawyers!
