Yahoo's recruitin' rapper
We've pointed out the perils of working at perpetual second-placer Yahoo before, but employee Rich Yueh wants to convince us we're wrong with his mad rap skillz.
To the beat of the played-out Mims single "This is Why I'm Hot," the happy worker attempt to flow:
This is where I work, this is where I work, this is where I work. I work at Yahoo, and you should too.
Aside from listing free amenities (the cafe, a gym Yueh doesn't use enough, iced mochas, a backpack, and business cards he'll never hand out), the zealous Yahoo does anything but persuade prospective hires. I don't want to work with bland drones with bad dance moves and lame taste in music who are satiated by free coffee and large monitors, whose sense of rebellion is pretending to use a carpool parking space and to ghost a car. I'd be embarrassed if my coworkers were impressed by these supposedly "wicked" rhymes:
I work 'til six, sometimes nine to five. My boss likes the way I'm always on time, making sure my stuff goes live.
Word, Rich, word.
