Every now and again an employer has to review his employees, and Conan O’Brien thought it was about time he reviewed the people who answer to him. Although, it doesn’t seem that a lot of them really answer to him, and can you blame them? The one answer they all agreed upon, is which co-worker they think should be fired. Who do you think they all said? Jordan Schlansky, of course. I never would have agreed with them until I started following him on Twitter. It actually hurts to read his Tweets. So if reading 180 characters of his thoughts is painful, imagine how hard it must be to work with him?
But this isn’t about Schlansky, it’s about Conan. And I want his dummy! That was my biggest takeaway from this bit. That and he better give his show’s publicist a glowing review or we will have a problem.
Finally, Conan O’Brien is now the senior member late night host. Here’s to hoping he surpasses Letterman’s 33 year record.
