WHY I FIRED MY SECRETARY
Two weeks ago, was my ___ birthday, and I wasn’t feeling too hot that morning anyway. I went to breakfast, knowing my wife would be pleasant and say Happy Birthday and probably have a present for me. She didn’t even say Good Morning, let alone any Happy Birthday. I said, well, that’s wives for you. The children will remember. The children came to breakfast and didn’t say a word. When I started to the office I was feeling pretty low and despondent.
As I walked into my office, my secretary, Janet said, “Good Morning, Boss, Happy Birthday.” And I felt a little better; someone had remembered.
I worked until noon.
About noon Janet knocked on my door and said, “You know it’s such a beautiful day outside and it’s your birthday, let’s go to lunch, just you and me.
I said, “By George, that’s a greatest thing I’ve heard all day. Let’s go.”
We went to lunch. We didn’t go where we normally go; we went out into the country to a little private place. We had two martinis and enjoyed lunch tremendously.
On the way back to the office, she said, “You know, it’s such a beautiful day. We don’t need to go back to the office. Do we?” I said, “No, I guess not.” She said, “Let’s go to my apartment.”
After arriving at her apartment, we had another martini and smoked a cigarette and she said, “Boss, if you don’t mind, I think I’ll go into the bedroom and slip into something more comfortable.” “Sure,” I excitedly replied.
She went inot the bedroom and in about six minutes, she came out .... carrying a birthday cake followed by my wife and children. All were singing Happy Birthday.
And there I sat with nothing on but my socks.
A friend e-mail this to me just last week, knowing on the 10th of June would be my birthday.
Hope you enjoyed the humor of it.
DA
P.S. Waiting, I hope you enjoyed the above. It’s getting a little sticky around here. I remember when you invited me over here from H20. It was light and lively HERE with just the few of us. Not condoning or condemning but it has become like the old H20, everybody is right in their own eyes, allowing no room for freedom of thought. Sounds a little bit like the WBTS with its governing board of know it alllllls.
