Stupid people that graduate from college are so fun.
Not if you're the one who actually held them to reasonable standards and ended up in an academic version of the email chain quoted over at Penny Arcade (with Dave as the instructor and Ocean Marketing as the student). Game controllers are products and people buying them are customers. Students are neither of those things, yet so many students and 'education industry' workers act otherwise.
Mainly, though, I have to say that this seems like something that will end up in case study chunks in more than a few business textbooks. It might do equally useful service in net etiquette manuals, especially in sections devoted to the general point that It's Not Yours After You Send or Post It. For a marketing person in the game gear business to be ignorant of Penny Arcade is perhaps forgivable, but to be ignorant of how easily what you type can spread to parts unknown--well, that sounds like a very good reason to fire someone with no severance package.
