BloomBorg - You Will be Assimulated

There are financial newswires companies and then there's BloomBorg. Compared to BloomBorg other newswire companies, Reuters or is it Thomson? Dow Jones or is it NewsCorp? are all just free-wheeling, lotus-eating, hippy-dippy mavericks of the electric word.
There's the BloomBorg way or No Way.
It has it's own special robotic way of writing stories, it's own drone culture and even free food to keep everybody at their desks forever. Sure it pays well as it assimulates you into the BloomBorg matrix, but is it worth it? You take part in one of the great corporate dramas where it tries to make a crisis out everyday incidents. Where, if you decide to move on there is the threat "You'll never work here again." And you have to complete a leaving interview,

"Why are you leaving?" As if it's going to do anything about anything about its corporate culture of I shit on you, you shit on them, they shit on somebody else.

So here's a rant from Matthew Winkler the BloomBorg Queen of the drones, think Darth Vader without those quirky little characteristicsof once being human, "The enemy is human."

And finally if you need to be convinced then know that Michael BloomBorg, the owner of BloomBorg is Mayor of New York city where the police have been lying about, beating and terrorising cyclists who try to have a Critical Mass once a month.

If he hates cyclists he ain't human.
