In these pressing times when you hear about lay-offs constantly, it is rather difficult to breed job loyalty out of people. Especially when some people are hanging by a string compared to others. But that doesn’t mean you can’t lose your sense of humor. Jason Shugars quit Google and sent a funny e-mail before he left. “So long, suckers! I’m out!” stated Jason in the e-mail sent to 5,000 of his former fellow Google employees.
In the rest of the goodbye e-mail, Shugars reminisced about good times working at the search engine company. This includes the time when he put cake down his pants at a sales conference. He also stole his boss’ $8,000 leather couch. And he also sang “Hit Me Baby One More Time” while wearing a mini-skirt and braids.
“It took me a long time to write it,” stated Shugars. “I didn’t want to send out a stale ‘good working with you, please reach me here’ e-mail. Who wants that?” Shugars, 34, left Google to become Director of Ad Operations of Imeem. Imeem is a music social media company that receives abou 25 million visitors per month and gains about 65,000 new users per day.
