Yesterday, in an emerging tradition, and despite the danger of random gunfire associated with vice presidents in recent days, RF Connect observed Vice Presidents' day February 17th, the Friday before Presidents' Day.
VP Day stems from the coincidence that both Mike McKay, VP and CTO, and Jeff Hipchen, VP Business Development, share the same birthday, February 18th. Both men arrived fashionably late (like 8:45 AM) and left before 6:30 PM, as close to serious slacking as is possible in a startup company. The ages of the Vice presidents was not revealed; both are considerably younger and healthier then "Duck!" Cheney.
I am shocked by the authors attempt to associciate himeself with the Vice President. Two points:1) the VP would not support the creation of new holiday. That is so Old Europe. 2)I suspect that if the author felt the need to reduce the competition for Quayle he would not do it with a hand tooled silver inlayed Italian import. The VP has set the standard in this respect.
