I love pay caps for executives.
Really. I am pretty psyched about this. Thank you, President Obama et. al.
Maybe it makes me a "pinko-commie-socialist" (in one man's extremely redundant and not entirely accurate words), but I'd love to see more of this stuff. How can one justify giving oneself so much money in a bonus ever, not to mention when you just begged Washington to give you a bunch of cash so that your company would not go under? Lifestyle changes, please!
In other "pinko-commie-socialist" news, I watched this video yesterday-- it was basically a summation of everything I learned in my sociology classes and in environmental classes. Love it! It's a little bit propaganda-ish, and I find Annie a little bit annoying from time to time, but the illustrations are fun and the overall message is good (if not extremely familiar...).
In other non-communist news, I'm going to spend a little bit of my "snow day" (okay, so I'm not employed yet so snow day doesn't mean very much except that I can't leave the house) experimenting with making truffles (the experiment might not last very long, since I can only use what is in the house)... How very bourgeoisie!
I don't know why it seemed like a good time to blog, but it did.
Ugh, I can't believe it is still almost a month until I start my job. I want to start NOW!
