WORLD DAY OF STEALING FROM EMPLOY

Thanks to the mixed blessings of Google Translate, even the monolingual can enjoy endorsements of STEAL SOMETHING FROM WORK DAY from elsewhere in the world, such as Barcelona:

Work disorienting you. Enslaves you. Alienates you. You tired. You disgusting. It makes getting up early. I fuck with both loose climbs. I kill that bitch shit coffee and eating makes you fucking evil. You down. It gives you headaches for things that should be crap.

Inspirational Quote of the Week

“The U.S. Chamber of Commerce estimates that 75 percent of all employees steal at least once, and that half of these steal repeatedly. The Chamber also reports that one of every three business failures is the direct result of employee theft. According to the US Department of Commerce, employee dishonesty costs American business in excess of $50 billion annually.”

Rolling Thunder #9 In Production


Last week we received the flawless proofs for Rolling Thunder #9, and the magazine is currently being printed up north in French Canada. It’s an excellent issue and truly bursting with content. We expect to begin shipping them out in about three weeks (March 1st)—it’s the fourth consecutive issue that will come out precisely on schedule, a goal we’ve been working hard towards achieving.

As promised, subscription copies will be the first mailed out, so if you haven’t yet subscribed, now is the time to do it—if you miss the first bulk subscription mailing, the next one won’t be until a few weeks later. NOTE: Current subscribers should email rtsubs@crimethinc.com if they have changed their address.
