What Happens to Spammers: Capital One Sinking
It is surely not a pleasant situation for those who are losing their jobs, but personally I liked this one: Capital One seriously hit by the subprime scandal, with almost 2000 jobs cut.
Why am I happy? Because while in California, they used to spam me very aggressively: letter after letter asking me to subscribe for their credit cards. Almost day by day, our secretary came to my desk with new mail from Capital One. I never subscribed (interest rates were up to 18%) and they kept on spamming; hence, letters were constantly going to trash. Nowadays, their jobs follow the same direction.
