Staff as a Service?

Another source of this might be Labor Ready - warm bodies to fill an office space. And for those with higher skill, maybe we could tap some Hollywood extras?

Yes.

Right before the first dotbomb I went on a tour of LoudEye/Encoding.com which had lots of Hollywood clients. The place was in a gorgeous antique building, wrought iron railings, full rack sized silicon graphics multiprocessors, and all of the front desk, office staff were Beautiful People (tm) and very busy and serious. It looked like a set for what a futuristic tech company would dream of.

We need that as the face of distributed remote companies so that the old money can have a nice artifact to look at while everyone is at home on IRC.

Don't companies need all those beautiful people (tm) so that the engineers have someone to date, rather than boringly dating each other?

These beautiful people definitely weren't dating anyone at the company.
