HP - invent... Reasons for Layoffs

The place I work is constantly having items delivered. Sometimes they're normal, sometimes they're not. But they always come in boxes, and, as I've stated before, I love boxes.
HP makes some fairly decent stuff. I guess that's why we often order from them. I guess that's also why HP made net revenue of 79.9 billion dollars in 2004, and 86.8 billion dollars in 2005.
So they made nearly 87 billion dollars profit last year. That's a lot of green, yes? If so, then those figures have to make you wonder why HP had to lay off 10,000 workers last summer. Hold the phone. Eighty-seven billion dollars profit translates to a poor year? A year so bad that they were forced to lay off 10,000 workers in order to stay competitive? They didn't lose money. They made huge profit. Where does the greed end?

The hobo palace is not just a box to live in, but a way of life. Large enough for your entire family, it offers Homeless Protection to Hopeful Panhandlers, as well as peace of mind, just until you get back on your feet. The hobo palace is perfect for a homeless person. Available where HP products are sold.

In other news, I found out that a few friends have nominated me for the 2006 Bloggie Awards, specifically in the humour category. Thanks everybody! As in previous years, the Award Ceremony is held in Austin, Texas on March 13.

Update: I am not an official nominee! Nuts!
