Profile photo for Mike Laughlin

A friend worked for a company that was doing various kinds of advertising. Her job was to come up with greeting card slogans. She had hundreds of slogans with drawings. She was the only one working on it and it was two years of work. The company decided that they would not go into the greeting card business so my friend decided to quit. So she went to her boss and asked for the greeting card slogans as she had created all of them. She asked, “is the company going to use these”. No, never. So she asked if she could have them. The answer she got was that they belonged to the company….not to her. The company was abusing its employees so she packed up all her stuff and before she walked out the door she brought up the greeting card file and with one click of a button deleted the whole thing! It was her revenge moment before she walked out the door forever.
