Yahoo CEO to Give Employees the iPhone 5

It's such a wonderful day to be a Yahoo employee.

Marissa Mayer, the recently elected CEO of Yahoo, is going to give all of her employees their choice of the following smartphones: iPhone 5, Samsung Galaxy S3, HTC One X, HTC EVO 4G LTE, or Nokia Lumia 920. Like I said, a wonderful day to be a Yahoo employee.

This comes in part of the company trying to keep in line how their consumers use mobile. "We'd like our employees to have devices similar to our users, so we can think and work as the majority of our users do," a source at Yahoo said.

Let's not forget how this move would totally boost morale at the underperforming company. New smartphones for everyone would not only make all people on board happy, Mayer would also find new found respect and performance overall.

Sadly, they are, at the same time, going to discontinue IT support for Blackberry phones. Yowch for BB users.

'Till my next installment.
