  15. In article <olsonjj-1106951800080001@slip25.enet.net>, olsonjj@enet.net (JohnO) says:

  23. Since when do smart, hip companies turn to their "new hires" for buying
  24. advice?  This always cracks me up.  If we want to talk about anecdotal
  25. evidence, wouldn't it be more likely that a company looks to their
  26. seasoned, experienced employees?  Wouldn't they more likely take the
  27. advice of some lazy-ass middle-manager who didn't know what they were
  28. talking about?  :-)  (See almost any Dilbert for more examples, or
  29. more likely, ask anyone with a real job for a better example.)

  31. This is all part of the college student's fantasy: that George Lucas 
  32. is going to hire them in early June, and by July, he's going to turn
  33. to the college student with a pleading look in his eye and ask them
  34. which 3D program to buy.
