Earlier today we had an intersting email from a Halliburton employee who obviously has a completely different idea about the kind of products and services we offer… One has to wonder why o why would someone use their corporate email from such a high profile company for such a nefarious purpose?
Halliburton: “We want a whore” - original email reprinted here…
‘Hello,
I am looking into making travel arrangements from Bangkok Airport to my condominium in Jomtein. I am looking for reasonably priced limo or suv that will be stocked with drinks, stereo, and/or tv. And mainly, a female escort. Is this a service you can provide?
Thank you…’
NAME REMOVED
You can find the full thread where we discussed it on one of our favorite discussion forums (AppleNova) here..
This one post tickled up quite a lot and is worth posting here….
The Sun can exclusively reveal that Halliburton routinely hire alcohol-packed limosines and then request prostitutes to accompany their high-paid top brass. The Sun has possession of an email, sent by ‘Jon’ an executive at Halliburton to the owner of an adventure sports outfit based in Thailand, asking for a luxury car, filled with booze and hookers. Mr. Scratt, a sabre toothed squirrel (36) said, ‘I was shocked when I received the email. Extreme Sports Cafe provides high-quality, fun-packed adventures of an entirely different sort to what these perverts wanted’.
UPDATE - From Halliburton Watch..
“Thank you.
If other info turns up, we’d love to see it….

[...] In March Extreme Sports Cafe received an email from a Halliburton Executive inquiring as to whether a limo stocked with booze, music and an ‘escort - preferably female’ could be provided to pick him up from Bangkok Airport. Obviously this is easier than trawling the bars in Thailand yourself..read more | digg story [...]
