Utah Boss Accused of Waterboarding Worker
The Salt Lake Tribune is reporting a supervisor at a motivational coaching business in Utah has been accused of waterboarding an employee in front of his sales team. According to a lawsuit, the supervisor poured water from a gallon jug over the mouth and nostrils of one of his workers. At the conclusion of the waterboarding, the supervisor allegedly told the sales team that he wanted them to work as hard on making sales as their coworker had worked to breathe while he was being waterboarded. David Ellis, the president of the company Prosper, defended his staff. Ellis said, “It was meant to be a team-building exercise. Everybody was . . . involved and enthusiastic.”
Who says Big Government doesn't have anything to teach the private sector? If it weren't for Big Government research into how to, um..... "motivate" people. Prosper wouldn't have a snowballs chance in Guantanamo of meeting this quarter's sales goals.
I'm gonna start waterboarding the idiot who keeps transferring calls for the photo department to the pharmacy.

You work for CVS, don't you. Poor drug monkey...if you do, I am a fellow 'co-worker.' god save all who sail with us.
Waterboarding - for all the ways you care.
Yes, please don't give the corpo-pharms any ideas. I don't want waterboarded next.
Well, sounds perfectly fine to me. My favorite metaphor was always the cat- o'-nine tails anyway, so waterboarding is a piece of cake. We've already been subjected to starvation, verbal abuse, and rest deprivation, so what's a little ersatz drowning among professionals?
