I originally stumbled into Laura’s NYC Tales from MetaFilter’s story on the fallout of what happens when you get a celebrity’s old cell phone number (a potential Curb Your Enthusiam episode in the making). However I’m also a sucker for true-life tales of workplace dysfunction and her story of what happens when you work for a “futurist marketing consultancy and AmericaÂ’s foremost Trend expert” is horrifyingly priceless.
