It's Not Just George And Dick

Meanwhile, in the crypto-theorcracy know as Utah:

A manager at a motivational coaching firm in Utah waterboarded an employee with assistance from co-workers and then told employees he wanted them to work as hard at selling as the waterboarded employee did at breathing, according to allegations in a civil lawsuit filed in Utah state court in January.

[...]

The suit describes Joshua Christopherson, a Prosper, Inc manager, as a supervisor who routinely punished employees by drawing fake mustaches on them, removing their chairs and slamming a paddle down on their desks. On May 29, 2007, Christoperson asked for volunteers for an unspecified "new motivational exercise," which plaintiff Chad Hudgens volunteered for to prove his loyalty, according to the suit.

Christopherson then marched his subordinates up a hill near the office, told Hudgens to lay with his head facing downhill and ordered other employees to hold him down, according to the suit.

Christopherson then "slowly poured a gallon of water over Hudgens' mouth and nostrils, thereby making it impossible for Hudgens for breath (sic) for a sustained period of time."

Anybody want to bet who Mr. Christopherson voted for in the past two presidential election?
