Thread regarding Nielsen layoffs

The more things change....

For some reason, and don't ask...lol...I did a random Nielsen search on reddit, and sure enough the first thing that came up was an 18yr old thread from back in the day during the original Nielsen demolition by Calhoun/Habib regarding their "genius" idea that deleting the "reply all" button in our Microsoft Outlook emails would save money! Lol. Man, I remember this like it was yesterday. This would have been circa 2008, about 2 years into the "transformation." And here we are all these years later!

Yep, this wasn't fake news. It was the brainchild of the newly hired hack CTO at the time...some hack from GE named Andrew or something that worked with Habib back in the day. This was his genius contribution to cost savings. Remember it well.

44,000 people had to change their email habits because Habib embarrassed himself. His ego was so fragile.
