Please tell your male friends, etc. Shopping at Home Depot about this scam!  A 'heads up' for those men who may be regular Home Depot customers. This one caught me by surprise.

Over the last month I became a victim of a clever scam while out shopping. Simply going out to get supplies has turned out to be quite traumatic. Don't be naive enough to think it couldn't happen to you or your friends!  Here's how the scam works:

Two seriously good-looking 20-21 year-old girls come over to your car as you are packing your shopping into the trunk. They both start wiping your windshield with a rag and Windex window cleaner, with their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts.  It is impossible not to look.
When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say 'No' and instead ask You for a ride to McDonald's.  You agree and they get into the back seat. On the way, they start undressing. Then one of them climbs over into the front seat and starts crawling all over you, while the other one steals your wallet!

I had my wallet stolen March 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, 17th, 20th, 24th & 28th.  Also April 2nd & 4th, twice on the 8th, 9th, and three times last Saturday and very likely again this upcoming weekend.

So tell your friends to be careful.

OpenText is again up to their old tricks. Buy a company, take over their product and lay-off all their employees with minimal severance and termination pay and no owed vacation pay. This time they acquired Vignette. An employee of Vignette emailed me this morning saying that OpenText is now refusing to pay all the money they promised employees who continued to work for OpenText after the acquisition. These guys are true scum.

I use to work for Hummingbird and they refused to pay me my 2 weeks of owed vacation and termination pay. They did this to many employees. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough money for any one person to bother hiring a lawyer, but together we could've organize something. Most employees were simply too lazy and afraid to stand up to OpenText. I think OpenText knows this.

I'm sure some weeds will come back. I'll pull them again. And again. And again.
