My vote is Starbucks. Their coffee tastes like the bottom of an ashtray and they squeeze out companies that don't suck.

Actually, since most people who go there buy their milkshakes, sandwiches, or crappy easy listening music I would just have them stop selling what little coffee they still have. Then I would change their name to Giant Monolithic Corporate Purveyor of Milkshakes, Sandwiches, and Crappy Easy Listening Music.
 
Comcast.

Abysmal service, incompetent employees all around, incorrect charges, sooo many headaches, outages all the time, can't get anyone out to fix jack for a week.

Yea, I'm on DSL now.
 
Starbucks. We have 3 of them within 2-3 miles of each other. I have visited places where they have 3 in the same plaza. There is one plaza in Fremont CA (10-15 min north of San Jose) where there is a pair of Starbucks within eyesight of each other. I could probably order in one Starbucks and walk to the other to pick my order (it is that close).

Why? First, because it'd be easy to do and I'm not an overachiever. Second, because I'm sick of everyone telling me how awesome they are when they haven't made a reasonable chip in the past how many? years.

My employer and others like it. I am employed by a mega-group, a company that employs ER physicians to work in a multitude of hospitals. They have a warm body mentality regarding who they staff there. They contract with hospitals that also have a warm body mentality. I can understand a group that supplies one to 3 hospitals but beyond that the business superceeds good patient care.

As a member of their direct opposition, I too think that post was insane. Without AMD, there would be less push for innovation. Intel is a giant and needs someone to compete against to keep sharp.

The person who said Intel is such an idiot :roll: They make WAY more than just CPUs. I could list about 100 reasons why that is a terrible choice but it really isn't worth it. Technology companies (including software companies) should be the last on the list to be brought down for no apparent reason.
