True, but aneurysm levels of coke, that's a lot. I wonder if he knew anyone who had access to literal tons of cocaine?

dotcom jobs

The level of incompetence I saw at a 200 employee operation was staggering. But they sold consumer electronics online so basically printing money. Got laid off in 99 and the company ceased to exist by 2000.

We got free sneakers and the day off to go see the Phantom Menace though.

Fuck the klinton cartel.

Can confirm. I worked for an online gaming start up in 1995-98 and those fools were practically wiping their asses with 100 bills. The owners and their family members with the cushy honorary jobs were the biggest coke heads I’ve ever seen. They were selling it out of their offices! But we employees (about 100) got lots of perks - dinner every night from any restaurant we wanted, fully stocked break room w/fresh pastries and coffee every morning. 3 hr margarita lunches at a nearby resort. I typed up a few of the executives’ expense reports and it was crazy how much they were spending and getting away with. I took a crew to rep us one year at CES in Vegas and we turned in our gambling fees, souvenirs, room service at all hours, outrageous bar tabs. Those were the days before it all came crashing down!
