Things have gotten worse over at the Inquirer and Daily News. PW’s Steve Volk has the scoop:
Starting Feb. 1, according to an internal memo, the service that currently cares for the company’s decorative flora will be eliminated “in an effort to reduce costs.”
Some plants will be removed entirely. Remaining vegetation will now rely on newspaper staff to keep them watered and fed. Good luck, we say.
These days Philadelphia Newspapers Inc. (PNI) staff won’t be eating so well themselves.
An earlier internal memo recently notified staff that the cafeteria will no longer serve the entree of the day. Ad reps, reporters and the like will have to make do with sandwiches, salads, pizza and donuts.
Aaaaargh! You can read the whole story here. It includes some great Byko quotes, as all stories about the Daily News should. The full memo is after the jump.
