Cond Nast Uses Feng Shui to Browbeat Assistants
We're loath to point out another Times article, but we found a little something in a piece about corporate Feng Shui-ster Alex Stark, who makes a living consulting companies on the ancient art of furniture placement. What we actually care about is hidden in the 2nd-to-last paragraph of the item (which, we must add, is best suited to 1999), but it's a gem nevertheless:
While many of Mr. Stark's clients are only too happy to talk about their feng shui experience, some are still reluctant to do so. In fact, Mr. Stark performed feng shui on one of the most recognizable commercial properties in Manhattan, the Cond Nast Building, in Times Square, but the company has declined to discuss it.
Talk about burying the lede.
