Not even a mention of the F&O guy who cooks the books every quarter - JK ?

Ain't this a wonderful life ? Some people have all the luck.

Who could’ve predicted this outcome? Certainly not Watsonx that’s over in a corner hallucinating and spewing garbage and junk responses like a patient in a mental asylum. Certainly not the CEO who was too busy firing tens of thousands of people who might’ve contributed to making the company competitive again, who was too preoccupied with juicing the numbers to justify his fat raise to his pals on Wall Street. Certainly not the board that caved to the demands of that whiny, entitled CEO, and gave him a 23% raise for doing jack-all. And certainly not the HR/PR team that too busy arranging for him to “win” that bogus HR award from a firm no one ever heard of, and that IBM probably paid for him to receive. This outcome is EXACTLY what you’d expect from a company with misplaced priorities that has completely lost its way.

I guess we know who Oprah WON’T be talking to tonight.
