Yahoo staff fed up with eating dog food

It seems that the people at the search engine outfit Yahoo do not like being told to "eat their own dog food".

Top Yahoo senior vice president of communications products, Jeff Bonforte, and CIO Randy Roumillat were shocked that staff disobeyed last year's dog food order, at the expense of losing PR value, profit potential and a cold wet nose.

Only a quarter of Yahoo staff have obeyed the company's request to "eat their own dog food" and switch to Yahoo Mail, no longer sleep or shag the postman's leg.

The email, leaked to All Things Digital, attempts to bring staff to heel. It begs staff to roll over to the corporate version of Yahoo's webmail system, and smacks staff who refuse to part with Microsoft Outlook with a rolled up newspaper.
