The thing is, HP is too big to be labeled like this. Their measurement equipment was and still some of the best, although Agilent bought them. Their calculators are awesome. Just printer department, god damn it. It's as if their HR requires list of asshole moves for each potential employee and then choses worst.

They probably do the marshmallow test on applicants. If they fail the test and lie about it, they go to the printer department.
