老板怀孕了,孩子肯定不是我的
可是 好事不出门,坏事传千里
这几天我陪老板孕检的消息已经传遍了全系
教授学生小本老秘都知道了,
扫厕所大娘一大早把我给堵在小便池里盘问
系里的technician是从来把我当苍蝇的
见了我也脸上也洋溢着骚乎乎的笑
各种各样的绯闻在空气中飘来飘去。。。
今天好容易熬到傍晚老板走了
难得组里的老年薄厚们和男女小白们没有马上拍屁走人
他们默默地挤到我的小cubicle里
他们像coyote一样 把我围住
堆着假笑 只不作声
一个个含情脉脉地望着我
终于
一个老中薄厚大娘拉住了我的小手
用中文问,“听说老板怀孕了,是你的”。
我没理会丫。
大爷走人还不行么?我不吭声 电脑啪地一关
没走多远后面的男小白问“老板怀孕了,听说是奥巴马的,是吗?”。
我还是没理会丫
继续走着我的路!
女小白又追上来“老板怀孕了,听说是外星人的,是吗?”
我忍不住的骂了一句粗话,掉头走了

How Can Index Funds Beat the Market?
Ben Stein loves Dimensional Fund Advisors. They "run the most amazingly
successful, low-cost, unmanaged but somehow deep-value index funds I have
ever found," he says, adding that "their returns are amazing, and they
charge almost nothing." It's a bit weird: how can an index fund have "
amazing" returns? Surely the whole point of an index fund is that it's more

来自主题: JobHunting版 - offer 选择, facebook VS google ?
In fact, right now is 最火的时候. People are talking about FB taking over
all the WEB. And I guess that FB is not profitable yet in 2009, because it
boasted that it was "cash flow positive", which is different from "
profitable".
I started using FB about 8 months ago, and because I am a rather late
adopter/believer of everything, I guess that its user growth may slow down
from here. Another anecdote is that social gamers are 40ish year old women.

The H-1B work visa is fundamentally about cheap, de facto indentured labor.
The tech industry lobbyists portray H-1B as a remedy for labor shortages and
as a means of hiring "the best and the brightest" from around the world.
Though I strongly support that latter goal, the lobbyists' "best and
