    Let me throw a name out for a replacement: Bob Costas.

    Yes. Or he pinches off a few grand from his $25 million salary and has a guy do it on the down-low.

    I've never been important enough to be able to.

    It's probably a testimony to your character that you never had the need to.

    No way he puts up with that grind. He doesn't need it. Doing those shows is HARD.

    I think they may just give it to Hoda Kotb. I don't think there's much of a chance it goes to Megan Kelly -- and I certainly wouldn't make that move -- but it would actually be a much better fit than what she's doing now.

    Employee discussions, reviewing their evals, even discipline and PIPs - you don't need to lock the door.

    Only two reasons to lock a door:
    • You're naked; or
    • You're pooping.

    I’ve locked the door when taking a nap before. People at the office don’t take a closed door as a sign they shouldn’t come in, but rather as a sign that they need only to give a quick knock without waiting for acknowledgement before bursting through the door.

    No shit. First things I’d buy are blackout shades and a deadbolt.
