Start hoarding the TP

Divine.com, formerly Open Market, is our neighbor who was recently in the news for informing their employees making more than $60k per year that they would be receiving a 50% pay cut for the month of May and a 3.8% reduction thereafter. The parking lot remains full even though many deride the company for such extreme measures.

Here at Nokia the economising has come in much more subtle ways in the past year, last week we were asked to conserve on energy as much as possible and this week all of the building flora will be removed to save on the cost of plant maintenance by Rentokil [ pronounced Rent-to-kill and is the best company name ever :) ]. I've decided that I will bring a couple of rolls of toilet paper to work and hide them in my desk just in case they decide to cut the last perk we have; fresh, soft and complimentary toilet paper.
