Exactly! This was Oakley's legacy they wonted to get rid of. We had some of the best web designers, and it used to be a dream workplace with many, many exceptions.

Supposedly, it was employee-run with various beer on tap, which ("supposedly" again), was supplied by employees... but that wasn't exactly true. :)
