(Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Back in 2009 I happened to overlap with Carol Bartz at Yahoo! for a few months. I was a contractor, she was the CEO, so we didn't end exactly end up playing golf together. I did happen to be, however, one of thousands of recipients of this early \u003ca href=\"http://allthingsd.com/20090125/carol-bartzs-first-week-at-yahoo-memo-to-the-troops/\">memo\u003c/a> from the new boss, sent to all-worldwide:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>It’s Friday!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wow, this week has gone fast. I thought I’d give you a quick idea of how things went for me this week. First, a BIG thank you for all the positive comments you’ve sent my way. It has really made me feel welcome. And a special big thanks to all the guys (that’d be Willie, Anthony, Jack, Allen, Daryl, Nathan, Ali, etc.) that worked so quickly to get Judy and I up and running. I know I told you at the all-hands that I was going to be bringing my lunch. That was before I saw the cafeteria–it rocks! Forget that leftover stuff!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My first impression of the Yahoos is that you guys are smart and dedicated, and have a lot of great energy with a can-do attitude (ok, maybe there’s some sucking up because I’m the boss, but it impressed the heck out of me).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I wasn’t too happy to see some “inside sources” quoting my all-hands comments to the outside press–STOP IT! And while we’re on the subject of all-hands, I cancelled the regularly scheduled after-earnings meeting simply because it’s just too close to the one we just had. Don’t take it as something it’s not.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’m pumped up and proud to be here. I’m going to spend my weekend shopping for something purple (great excuse for a little retail therapy)…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carol\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was impressed, at least on the level of style. I'd been the recipient of all-everyone-in-the-whole-wide-world memos from higher ups for many years, and they all pretty much read like examples from a textbook written by George Orwell.
