Sorry for the tangent but I have to know if it’s really “picadillos” you meant to type.

Yes, he was forced out in a bitter dispute, almost a riot, about serving these in the HP cafeteria. At least that's what I heard. They took their food very seriously there.

That's weird. He was very famously fired for sexual misconduct, which is why Larry Ellison hired him to Oracle.

Larry Ellison is also famous for his "can I buy you a car?" line for attractive women. ;)

I think the pun may have been lost on you.
Definitely.
This is of course, distinct from Picadilly's cafeteria chain.
No. And I could have sworn I even looked up the spelling for what I meant to type.
