@CJ: You may be too young/regional to remember this, but Kenny Roger's Roasters had awesome cornbread. Plus, I thought their Chicken was better seasoned than Boston Market's. Pret-A-Mager?! That's sooo pretentious! Hey, it could be funnier...imagine if Kindler had been president of El Pollo Loco!
Anyhow, I can't wait for the next Pfizer Borg CEO to say "All your base are now belong to us!"
That's actually what I was thinking of, actually. My parents (God bless 'em, they're cheap) would take me and my sister out to KRR for our "meal out." Not too bad, actually -- I remember the garlic mashed potatoes most of all.
@CJ: I still remember the KRR jingle: "Kenny Rogers Roasters! It's the wood that makes it good!" (tongue-in-cheek nowadays) Plus the open-flame rotisserie ovens kept the KRR restaurants quite warm in the winter.
I wonder if Kindler is aspiring to leave a trail of Pharma death and destruction like Fred Hassan!
What's the job market like for chemists? Dude -- it's always bad.
How bad is it? How the heck should I know? Quantifying the chemistry job market is what this blog is about. That, and helping chemists find jobs somehow.

Wouldn't layoffs be called "Workforce Optimizations" on a resume for these guys??

ReplyDeleteAnyhow, I can't wait for the next Pfizer Borg CEO to say "All your base are now belong to us!"
Note to CJ: Don't ever consider working at Pfizer.
