Funny photo in employee magazine.
« on: January 20, 2003, 11:12:36 AM »
I thought this was too hilarious to pass up without sharing, an hipocrasy without boundaries.

Maybe I should not divulge personal info, but I work for the big German company Siemens in the USA. Every 2 months we get an employee magazine (much more than a newsletter) published from Germany. It even comes on that longer A4 paper like the Europeans use. It has a real name but we affectionately call it "der Spiel".

This issue mainly focuses on women in the workplace. Later on in some of the motivational related areas was this picture. It was probably located on the internet by someone German at the in-house publishing division within the company. Someone most likely born in the late 70s.

I suppose they thought it might be motivational. Well....it has proven itself quite motivational in the past. Go Rosie Go! Can you see the irony?

Adios,

rogwar

There was  a poster showing a sky full of B-17's too, maybe they could use that for their next issue.

:D

And on a less funny note...altering something "this" historical into a modern day political satire to express a personal opinion is a bit...well....shall we say...ordinary. Do whatever you wish to GB, but please don't use my dear Rosie in the process. She's like my mom.

I hope you find the things in life you may be lacking. Anyway, have a fun week. :)

Look again Rogwar. That isn't Rosie, that's Eva Braun.

A woman saying "we can do it" while displaying the universal gesture for erection. I can see how that's motivational, but in the work place ?
