...but this is the funniest thing I've seen this week:
This publication obtained audiotapes of two meetings conducted by recently departed ad sales EVP Lisa Brown. In them, she repeatedly launches into obscenity-laced tirades, personally insults senior executives in her group, and at one point, pounds her shoe on the table, Khrushchev-style, when a creative director from a longtime AOL vendor speaks out of turn.
I would pay good money to actually SEE Lisa Brown doing the Krushcev-style shoe pounding, but sadly, these are audio tapes. The letter saying she was leaving indicated no disgrace whatsoever, just the usual "leaving to persue other opportunities" thing. No doubt she will go on to some other company where she will continue her shoe-pounding antics.
The source of the quote is here.
