Save The Drama For Your Mamma, You Prissy B-schooler!

bfrank writes "Man, do I love the smell of napalm and bad financials in the morning! To further drive the analogy of "business is war" into the ground, 80 Wharton b-schoolers are off to basic training in Quantico, VA. There, they will learn from the Marines what it takes to be quick-thinking, tough under pressure, and decisive in the heat of battle. This sounds like a good idea in general, doesn't it? Mandatory "ass whoopings" for new business school graduates so they don't come up with silly ideas like Boo.com. I'm already somewhat dismayed by the amount of "macho'ism" already in business today. Do we really need to promote that more?"
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
