You mean it ISN'T a joke?

When I saw this post about Monday over on The Shifted Librarian I was sure it was a joke. I actually went and browsed to the PricewaterhouseCoopers Consulting page and saw that it was actually true:

I Used to Think Accenture Was Bad.

"The accounting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers has changed its name. Henceforth, it will be known as:

Monday

No joke. Monday. As in www.monday.com. As in, the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences will have its Academy Awards tallied by Monday. (Since the Oscars telecast is usually on a Sunday, that could be a problem.)

Sheesh. Monday. As in "I Don't Like Mondays." And they paid someone for this?

(By the way, domains for the other days of the week are already taken.)" [Over the Edge]

IMHO, this has got to be one of the lamest names ever for a company. I'm sure someone was paid big bucks to come up with it too.
