MEMO FROM THE PREZ:
You know, it's the little differences. Like in Europe, do you know what they call Microsoft Word? Le Microsoft Word. And Internet Explorer is called a Royale with 128-bit encryption.
The Top 9 Differences Between Working at McDonald's and Working at Microsoft
9> McDonald's: Runs a promotional game based on Monopoly. Microsoft: Runs a monopoly.
8> One is only interested in getting product to the customer quickly without regard to quality. The other sells hamburgers.
7> McDonald's: Employs many 16-year-old female virgins. Microsoft: Employs many 31-year-old male virgins.
6> Products of Microsoft employees expedite delivery of computer viruses; at McDonald's, they stick to biological viruses.
5> You take pride that the best-selling product at Microsoft has a higher nutritional value.
4> McDonald's: "Do you want to super-size for an extra 59 cents?" Microsoft: "Upgrade now for $129 or your software will stop working."
3> After three years full-time with your burger buddies, how much are your stock options worth, fry boy?
2> Microsoft: Blue Screen of Death. McDonald's: Blank Face of Teen Apathy.
