Maybe their next pivot will be to print-on-demand motivational posters.

Heh, that reminds me of a few years back, when I was at Lockheed I printed several demotivatioal posters and quietly placed them up around the office.
I got reprimanded by HR after they found this poster I put up in one of the interview rooms: http://i.imgur.com/dzk0YcA.jpg
HR was interviewing someone who was seeking H1-B and noticed this poster hanging on the wall during the interview...
My boss (CTO !!) used to put up this poster with "I rarely test my code. When I do, I do it in production". Good times.
Fired?
Anyway bold move, my office need a couple to lighten things up.
Heh - no, not fired. A gentle slap on the wrist... the head of HR was a good friend.
Today you would have been publicly shamed on social media by outrage culture and then fired.
or a platform for 3D-rendering of motivational posters driven by the information in the CMS
They should name it "synergy.js"
