Dear fellow employees:
As the CFO of this business that employs 140 people, I have resigned
myself to the fact that Barack Obama is now our President and that our
taxes and government fees will increase in a BIG way.
To compensate for these increases I figure that our Clients will have to
see an increase in our fees to them of about 8%, but since we cannot
increase our fees right now due to the dismal state of our economy, we
will have to lay off six of our employees instead. This has really been
eating at me for a while, as we believe we are family here and I didn't
know how to choose who will have to go.
So, this is what I did. I strolled through our parking lot and found six
Obama bumper stickers on our employees' cars and have decided these
folks will be the first to be laid off. I can't think of a more fair way
to approach this problem. These folks wanted change; I gave it to them.
Sincerely,
The Boss
(A guy in our church wrote this and at first I thought it was a serious letter - which made the ending all the more funny. I just about died laughing)
