Over the last 7 and a half years, I’ve had 10 different desks, 7 different titles, and 5 different bosses. I’ve logged over 250,000 miles in business travel (with only 2 missed flights!), spent over 4 months in hotels and AirBnBs, and have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in T&E and production budgets.

Beverages were consumed in earnest, prizes were ceremoniously distributed, time trial records were set and 100+…

When we first saw Justine Lai's "Join or Die" series, we just knew this art should be hanging at Gawker HQ. Thanks in part to Diesel, we made that happen. They dared us to "Be Stupid" and we happily obliged. Slightly-NSFW photo proof inside.
