6834: Money Problems.


Identity issues in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…

• Make the logo smaller. AIG removed its logo from employee badges and corporate charge cards after workers were being harassed. Management went so far as to issue a memo stating, “Due to a growing sense of public attention fueled by increased media scrutiny,” workers should avoid sporting AIG-branded gear, travel in pairs during the evening and be suspicious of strangers lurking near AIG offices. Employees are also encouraged to remove all mentions of AIG from their résumés.

Walletpop believes its wallet is being lifted by Mickey D’s, criticizing the fast feeder over the price of Chicken McNuggets. Apparently, the more McNuggets you buy, the higher the price per McNugget—versus the typical cost-per-unit reduction most customers expect to receive. Actually, the price you pay for eating lots of McNuggets involves some really nasty bowel movements.

• Six Flags is filing for bankruptcy. Hey, the amusement park has been creatively bankrupt for a long time.
