I’ve been gone for a few days on a deserted island and when I come back to check the feeds and the things I’ve missed, what do I come across? Microsoft hires Jerry Seinfeld on retainer for $10 million!
Ok, so the bloke is quite funny, but I’m sure for $10 million, I could learn some jokes and tell people about the Microsoft world a bit better than he can. After all, he is a commedian and right now the last thing that Microsoft need is people to laugh more at them as they already fight quite the uphill battle when it comes to ensuring people don’t take the mick…
What exactly is it Jerry is going to do? Supposedly starting September 4th, he is going to discuss topics surrounding the theme “Windows, Not Walls”. This is in hopes that it will “break down barriers that prevent people and ideas from connecting”. Like I said, for less than $10 million, I could easily make some jokes and tell people better things about Microsoft than Jerry can – or maybe I’m wrong…maybe he took up entertainment and became a commedian because it was more fun than being a computer engineer, had better hours, and obviously pays better…
