Microsoft Fires Intelligent Employee


(Redmond) Oct, 29, 2003 -- Reuters

An employee in Redmond showed signs
of intellgence.

The Gate$ Thought Police immediately
seized his brain and claimed it was
their intellectual property.

A quick lobotomy was performed.

The employee was fired, although he
is still free to exercise his options
for purchasing 5000 shares of MSFT
at 1000 pounds sterling.
