A month after we first heard rumors that Libby Sartain, Yahoo's unpopular HR chief, a tipster now tells us Sartain is "quitting." To the last, Sartain has been more skilled at generating press clips for herself than results for Yahoo. In the most recent issue of Human Resource Executive — yes, such a magazine exists — she said:

"You can't do this job effectively if you leave dead bodies in your path."

How sweet! Never mind that dead bodies are exactly what Sartain delivered by the hundreds in this month's layoffs. Sartain was actually speaking about the stereotype of HR executives: mild-mannered and ineffective. Sartain's certainly not the former. "As a contract recruiter who has witnessed her outbursts and ineptitudes, I for one am VERY happy," says our source, of her departure.
