Every employee’s dream come true

Rumor has it that Yahoo! employees are not too thrilled with Microsoft’s offer.

“Microsoft’s just not evil enough for us” seems to be the general consensus.

It was with great pleasure, then, that news sprung up yesterday about a possible offer from News Corporation (owned by conservative media tycoon Rupert Murdoch). Word had gotten to Murdoch that Yahoo! was unimpressed by Microsoft’s villainy, and he jumped at the opportunity.

Still, some Yahoo! employees remain skeptical.

“News Corp. isn’t really that evil when you think about it,” said one system administrator.

When asked what would really get employees excited for an acquisition, this program manager spoke for many:

“We’re excitedly awaiting Halliburton’s offer,” he said.
